Vibrant Accents...

An empty bookcase painted Pratt & Lambert's Orange Spice sets off sparks in the living room, picked up in the custom-colored print by Galbraith & Paul on the pillows and curtains. Custom orange fabric from Lewis & Sheron Textiles. Charlotte wing chairs and sofa, coffee tables, ceramic garden stool, and Black Corbel chandelier from South of Market. Acrylic log holder by CB2. Wall paint is Benjamin Moore's Seapearl.
 Orange paint sets off the Palladian details of the bookcase.

Overscale willow basket lights from South of Market help define the breakfast area in a large kitchen. Tones of gray reappear in the curtain fabric by Lewis & Sheron Textiles and the Dual Seat Counter Bench by Lee Industries. Faucet by Waterworks. Sub-Zero refrigerator. Mirror from South of Market.

I love this Kansas City Apartment profiled in House Beautiful ... the accents of vibrant orange bring a modernity to the neutral palette, that also allows you to change up the accent when the mood or fashion strikes you.
Enjoy,
 An old shop awning is hung on a living room wall like a piece of art.

Pattern & Colour Friendship...






A few images I recently came across that I often find myself drawn to pattern & print in shades of blue  - the regency geo design carpet/ rug & watercolour ikat interpretation and accents of orange - again in the post modern regency look upholstered chaise Louis, and in the fabulously fun & gorgeous illustrations by Alanna Cavanagh. I find tints & shades of Orange to be such a great joiner / accent colour - much like Pink and Green.
Plus I couldn't resist the prints by Alana Cavanagh and the 'Cavoodle' Cavalier x Poodle looking puppy - reminded me of our dear U.S based friend Jen and her dog 'Toby'! Don't you think Jen?!
What colour & print friendship combinations have you found yourself drawn to - no you're noticing what do you think they could be?
Drop me a line on a comment and let me know!
Enjoy,
