ROOM LUST

                                                               I am in love with this room.

TAKE ME AWAY

Tuesday's call for a little escapism, so here is a home comprised of beautiful light soaked rooms featuring ornate crown molding, upholstered velvet furniture and a raw chevron wood floor—I would like to be transported now. images via Sanctuary

CURRENT CRAVING

This vintage bookshelf wallcovering from Young & Battaglia is at the top of my splurge list. I mean look at it! I'm dying to cover my office in it, or maybe just an accent wall—it must go somewhere.

SUSPECT

Totally love the whimsical design of the taped out rug design under the coffee table. via sketch24blog

CRUSHING

I'm completely blown away by the interior styling work of Irina Graewe, nearly every shot from her portfolio is seriously stunning.

THE HOPYARD

Going from an on staff editor job in NYC to contributing editor from California has been a fun change and one great thing that came from it was getting a job doing the interiors for a beer and wine bar in Sonoma County. Here are some roughs of The Hopyard, a craft beer bar in Santa Rosa. All the materials were either made on premises or sourced locally. The taps are in so go visit at 1305 Cleveland Ave.  More updates to come!

I HEART ROMAN & WILLIAMS

You may not know their name but your sure as hell know their work: The Breslin, John Dory, the Standard's 18th Floor, The Dutch—yeah that's Roman & Williams. The NYC based design duo's work is always so on point.

TIMELESS

I've been working as an editor for some very special interior design publications for years now and have been introduced to so many designers I adore and respect—but I guess you never forget your first. Dorothy Draper, while of course I never met her, was one of the first designers I was schooled on and complettely fell in love with. Her use of color, her perfect pairings, it all stands the test of time and continues to inspire— I can only hope to have that legacy one day. Above is the Greenbrier in West Virginia that she designed and I can't imagine anything better.

LINE CAUGHT

Any interior stylist or editor knows how important an amazing photographer is to our work—which is why I'm totally in love with Danish photographer Line Klein. Her way with light is so refreshing and elegant, she really captures the essence of a space with a clean simplicity.

PLANT ONE ON ME

Just ordered a few of these retro wire plant stands along with a few other goodies from LA's Amsterdam Modern, such a great store!

4 POST PERFECTION

This bedroom is so simple and inviting, I just love it's monochromatic scheme.  I've been looking for a clean four post bed like this for a while now, so if you know who makes this or a similar one let me know. (via My Future House)

NEON REGENCY

I've been searching for a Regency style console for a few months now and think I may have finally found the one! Love the black top, neon yellow and swan details. Yay!
