Color is injected into this white room through a turquoise feature wall. The accent colors are all found in the bedding of the crib, tying the room together. Personalized name art on the wall has been very popular in nurseries for some time now.

*

According to Little Crown Interiors‘ website the artwork above the change table is the DNA footprint of the parents. Absolutely a very personal touch, I love it!

*

A lot of companies specialize in transforming your personal genome into art, this particular one is produced by British company DNA Art. What do you think, would you display your genetic code on the wall?

*

*

This tiny seating area is a feast for the eye with it’s great shapes, proportion and color. Hypnotizing!

*

The seating area is situated in a hallway in front of this staircase. I know the Moroccan style incorporates a lot of geometrical patterns and beautiful tiles, but I haven’t seen it combined into a beautiful hardwood floor like this before. And what do you think about the carpeting on the stairs? Looks like someone went up before and left a trail of rose petal for you to follow. Very inviting =)

*

This coral pink living room is topped off with a yellow ceiling and beige furniture. The furniture is pretty low set and simple in design, serving as the perfect backdrop for layering of pillows and fabrics of bright colors and beautiful pattern.

*

Those built in shelves!!

*

A simple but dramatic vignette with a mirror, two symmetrically arranged sculptures and a tray with silver tea service. The high gloss cabinet even has a tassel handle!

*

First thing you notice when walking through the door of this bedroom, apart from the fantastic door itself, has to be that ceiling.

*

Golden beige bedroom with every possible shade and hue of coral. Spicy hot colors!

*

View from the bed. There are so much detail here, even the lamp shades have beaded fringes.

*

I just could not leave this dressing room out.

*

When I think about Moroccan style interiors I think tassels, trays, big soft throw pillows and layering of hot fabrics. Oh yeah, the lanterns and incense too off cause!

*

Beautiful living room with a color palette of foggy light blue and creamy beige.  The scale and proportions in this room is great (pun not intended actually). Look at how tiny the coffee table comes out next to the tall furniture and high ceiling. Mounting straight curtains directly under the seiling helps too. These winged chairs suits my recent chair-upholstered-with-beautiful-pattern obsession perfectly! Do you think a TV screen is hiding in that cabinet? That would explain the size and placement.

*

The front of the chair is beige with deep buttoning, and the ceiling is the same color as the walls.

*

The built in shelves on each side of the fireplace are painted blue inside to make them more a part of the wall. Check out the mirrored front.

*

The soft feminine lines definitely gives this tiny work station a  “wow factor”.

*

And this dining room, with its blue walls and carpets, takes a dramatic turn with a rich brown (or is it green?) ceiling. This is one of my favorite color combos; Light blue, creams and green. Just like my living room! And don’t get me started on the dining chairs.. Nail head trim AND door knocker detail? Perfect!

*

I couldn’t resist featuring this cute nursery. Blue walls with old pink decor. Perfect for boy or girl!

*

And I wish we could see more of this super fresh bedroom. The reigning color of the year, turquoise always looks crispy clean when combined with white.

*

And since there are no other views of this room, we’ll zoom in on the details instead! Notice how many (barely) different shades of turquoise they fitted in here. And the inverted pattern color on the chair (right) is a great touch.

*

*

Molly has a white house with beautiful black details. I really like the larger-than-life potted trees, very simple and dramatic.

*

This is Molly’s dining room. Like the facade, the walls are white and the floors and trim is black. The blue velvet dining chairs looks super soft and comfy.

*

On the other side of the fireplace wall is a living area.  Let us take a closer look:

*

Gray sofas with purple throw pillows and a glass chandelier to add a bit of glamour.

*

The kitchen is white with marble counter tops and brushed steel kitchen appliances.

*

I love how the glassware is arranged by color in the cabinet.

*

Isn’t this little girls room adorable?

*

This is definitely a room to grow up in.

*

This I presume is the master bedroom. It is  seafoam green and white, with a huge bed with nailhead trim. Love the pops of color brought in by the purple lampshades. This room was later painted a deep grey, which, according to Kishani “complrtely transformed the vibe of the space from beachy to moody”.

See the result on Kishani’s blog here.

*

The bathroom is white too.

*

Here is the second living room, with a flatscreen TV.

*

Last but not least is Molly’s home office. I have posted some images of this room before on this website, and here are some more:

*

The wall seems a lot more purple in these photos.

*

Here is the same office, revamped for a photo shoot for Molly Sims’ jewelry line.

*

And here is the beautiful actress in her equally beautiful home!

*

Bright turquoise walls with beige and yellow. This surf chic living room is all about happy colors.

*

That shade of turquoise is a bit on the bright side for me, but I love how it is repeated throughout the accents. And btw I am strangely attracted to the sofa fabric.. so pretty!

*

Now this is a cute dining area! The beige, turquoise and yellow work perfectly together.

*

Purple side table with orange fishes.  Almost like a built-in vignette. No worries about decorating that table top!

*

This must be the most crazy color combo yet. I feel like a cartoon character just by looking at it! I would think any weather would be gray when you walk out of this entryway.

*

This lavender blue, turquoise and green nursery is the cutest! The wave detail on the crib is my favorite part.

*

More waves in this bedroom. I see 6 fishes.

*

Orange and pink is one of my favorite color combos. Perfect for a little girls room.

*

*

Gray walls, white trim and area rugs against dark hardwood floors.  Check out the mega vignette on the bookshelf, half the sea is fitted in there!

*

Everything in this room is so.. wow!

*

This ottoman coffee table is spectacular!

She even wrote a post on her blog about personalizing your home with the colors you naturally gravitate towards, which apparently are the colors that suits us best. Eileen is well known for her beautiful use of bright and bold colors in her designs, and it doesn’t end when she gets off from work. Here is Eileen looking gorgeous in the center of her creations:

*

*

*

Her wardrobe is definitely enviable!

*

LXTV takes us on a tour of Eileen’s home, where she shares some tips and tricks on how to use your wardrobe as inspiration for your home decor:

*

Have you ever used clothes as inspiration for decorating? I find this really interesting. Clothes have never inspired me to decorate, but decoration has definitely inspired my clothing..

*

The walls and trim is blue all the way from top to bottom, with a white ceiling and a warm chocolate carpet. The pops of complimentary color orange adds a lot of fun and brightness.

*

Behind the bed is a huge mural of a white tree with little orange birds.

This is also the first time I have ever seen anyone place sconces over table lamps!

*

The headboard is clear glass (or plastic?).

*

Do you like this color combo? I’ve always been a sucker for blue/orange..

*

Blue chairs with ears (LOL)!

*

And a glass table, “matching” the headboard.

*

*

Lots of Asian influence here, from the wall panels to the bamboo bench and cobalt blue foo dogs. The color scheme of coral red, crisp white and beige is very fresh and clean. I find that all the neat little details carry my eyes across the room. Rooms like that never become boring to look at.

*

The panels on the wall flanking the bed looks like framed fabric. Cute idea.

On a side note: Every time I see a foo dog, I am reminded of my cat Professor (a Persian). He was not created correctly, lol!

*

Bedroom seating area. Coral red throws add a splash of color to the beige chairs.

*

Have you noticed it is quite popular to stack pretty throw pillows under side tables like this?

*

*

Beige living room  decorated with orange and red. Low furniture with simple lines on a large dramatic area rug. I don’t know where the coffee cups go, because there is no table. On the other hand, there is plenty of space for dancing!

*

From another angle. There is plenty of seating options here too.

*

Here is even a cozy nook for taking in the great view. Check out the red vases all along the windowsill, alternating between cacti and tea candles.

*

Talk about utilizing all space; this tiny corner is made into a home bar!

*

This must be the easiest for of Christmas decoration, loading a couple of fish bowls with disco-style ornaments!

*
