Bold blue and black paint is a favorite of ours for adding a rich accent color in any space. Both have a bit of edge that can add depth and interest.

Today we are sharing the ways we use rich saturated blue and black paint colors to add beauty in our recent projects.

Over the years, we have shared a simple formula for decorating your entry–ground the space with a small rug, add a console table, style with a mirror, greenery, art, and baskets. It’s a look that is always beautiful. But what it your entry is too small for a console table or doesn’t have enough wall space for a mirror? Even in large homes, sometimes there is often no formal entry. House plans often have you entering straight into the living room or the staircase. Or maybe you have a little entry, but doorways for the front office and guest bedroom take up any wall space. We’ve had to design around all these issues too. Today we are sharing a few different ways we’ve created a warmer welcome no matter the size or layout of the entry.
The flex room is such a fun space to design. It’s a room that accommodates multiple purposes and usually a range of ages and so it challenges our creativity in making it both functional and fun.

Take a look at some of my favorite flex space from our recent designs!
Grout doesn’t seem like a complicated decision. That is until you’re ready to install your tile and actually have to pick the grout you want. It’s like choosing white paint, there are a lot of different shades and each one will look different on install depending on the tile you are using, the amount of light in the room, and the other colors in the space. So although there is no simple answer to the question we often get, “What white grout should I use?,” we think knowing the exact grouts we have used in our tile projects at least gives you an idea of where to start. Here are a few for you to try.
A beautiful mirror is such a pretty accessory to add to a space. It’s an instant facelift to a wall–reflecting light, framing the view, and adding texture. I love using mirrors in the entry, to make an unexpected statement in the bathroom, above nightstands, or on an empty wall to brighten a space. Today we are highlighting five client favorite mirrors.

Add life and vibrancy throughout your house with fresh or faux greens. It’s one of the easiest and most affordable styling tips that truly makes a difference in the look and feel of any space.

See how we are styling our favorites!
