Making a Statement in the Entry

One the best parts of the design process is finding unique pieces that give spaces a wow factor. I recently installed the entry of my Calle Tamara project. It’s the first impression of this beautiful home, and I knew I wanted the space to reflect the vibe of this California cool, collected home.

When I saw this bone inlay chest, I knew it was perfect for the entry of this home. The soft neutral colors and global inspired design create a beautiful focal point. From the moment you walk in the door, this statement piece adds interest, setting the tone for the rest of the home.

An entry doesn’t require much furniture and accessories so you can have a little fun picking pieces that stand well on their own. The intricate details of this chest give the space personality, and require only a few simple accessories to complete the look.

This Week’s Favorite Finds

  1. This oversized round mirror is perfect for making a statement over a console. It’s on sale now, use code: HAPPYCART!
  2. A new arrival – this boho blouse caught my eye. I love the embroidered detail and delicate bell sleeves.
  3. A new rug that is a great netural foundation for a room and would make a beautiful runner in a kitchen. It’s on sale now with code: HAPPYCART!
  4.  These hoop earrings are unique! They are oval shaped which looks so pretty on. Fun to mix up a timeless look.
  5. Velvet slides in a soft pink color. Love the idea of these with just jeans and a white tee. But they would be pretty with the blouse above too!
  6. Aren’t these brass planters fun! They are a great way to add some shine for a room. They come in 2 different sizes so you can layer plants to create interest. They are on sale now with code: HAPPYCART!
  7. A pretty faceted vase to style on a bathroom counter or book shelf.
  8. This is my new favorite bronzer and highlighter and it’s so easy because it comes as a duo. The bronzer has  a subtle warmth and make your complexion glow. I love it and use it everyday!

Livable Coastal Modern Home

Do you remember my post awhile back about making a statement entry? Well it’s finally time to share more of my Calle Tamara project. I’m excited to take you inside the kitchen and family room of this beautiful home, where a fun family of 7 lives and entertains.

The kitchen of this home is light and bright with crisp white cabinetry, Benjamin Moore’s Chantilly Lace painted walls, calcutta marble countertops and calcutta marble tile backsplash. The european oak floors create a nice warm contrast. With such a classic, neutral foundation, I decided to add colorful, modern elements to make a statement and create a fresh new look for the space.

I love these brass cone pendants in this kitchen. They give the kitchen a wow factor. I like using the mix of brass in an otherwise cool toned space. Silver appliances, hardware and gray wishbone counter stools blend together allowing for pops of warmth from the light fixtures and woven seats.

modern coastal kitchen
The dining nook is one of my favorite spaces. I love the faceted glass pendant light over a more coastal, rustic dining table. The bistro chairs bring in some subtle blue color. It’s a fresh, cheery place for a large family to talk and dine.

The kitchen opens to a large family room. It’s a wonderful open floor plan. I wanted each space to play off each other and work well for entertaining. I choose large, deep, comfortable seating and specifically a backless daybed to maintain an open feel from the kitchen to the family room.

The furniture has a California cool vibe with clean modern lines and vintage textile accessories. My goal was to create a new eclectic mix with mid-century, bohemian and transitional elements. This included a layered a Safavieh natural fiber rug and global inspired blue and white rug to give the space some fun color durability.

The styled bookshelves and wood coffee table make the space come together in a cohesive overall design.

This coastal modern home was one of my favorite projects to date. I loved working with all the natural light in this pretty home and with such wonderful clients. It’s a great home to relax, enjoy and build great memories with friends and family. For a list of resources and how to get the look in your own home see below. Have a wonderful Wednesday!
