Archive for the ‘Rugs and Carpets’ Category

Before creating this website, I had a tiny file on my computer with my favorite interior pictures. That tiny file has grown into 500 files with 7000 images by the way. But I digress. Well, one of the pictures in that tiny file of mine was a smaller version of the pic below. Ever since then I have been in love with the print hanging over the sofa, but haven’t been able to find out anything about it. Yesterday as I was looking through the portfolio of Kwinter & Co Design, it turned up again, and now I am asking you if you happen to know anything about it?

*

And here it is.

*

Now let’s take a look at the rest of this gorgeous room. The living room is actually white with rich gray carpeting and a beige cowhide flower rug (available here). The wall behind the gray velour sofa is completely covered in mirrors. Nice glass coffee table too.

*

Side view. Black lamp shades are pretty and creates a good mood, but is not for lighting up, that’s for sure. But who cares when you have windows like that in the living room?

*

A folding screen is mounted on the wall as artwork behind a white cabinet.

*

Here is a closer look at the deep brown armchairs. Beautiful carvings and nailhead trim.

*

Designer Kendall Wilkinson is the creator behind this bright joy of a bedroom:

*

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.

*

Today’s divine designs are created by California based brother- and design duo Ryan and Joshua Brown of Brown Design Inc:

*

The walls, carpet and curtains are all the same perfect shade of creamy beige, setting a perfect backdrop for the dark coffee table. I could move in here in the blink of an eye, and would not change a thing. Perfect!

*

Camel colored couch, decorated with throw pillows one shade lighter than the walls, one shade darker than the couch, and every shade and texture in between.

*

White bedroom with a beige wallpapered feature wall. That is my favorite hardwood floor stain (at the moment), so rich and warm.

*

Beautiful flowing lines in that blue and cream area rug.

*

Have you ever seen a bench seat like this before? Spectacular lines!

*

Now this is a bathroom! I adore the dark window frames against the soft beige walls, and the tiles are just fabulous. Perfect balance between classic and modern elements.

*

If you enjoyed these images, make sure to view them on the flash site of Brown Design Inc. as they look so much better in full scale!

Here is another apartment, decorated in a completely different style from the one in the last post:

*

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!

*

I absolutely adore Kishani Perera’s use of color, I can’t think of anyone who uses color the same way as this girl. Take a look:

*

Coral red and antique-white two bed guest bedroom. The headboards are HOT! The bright color and bold fabric gives this room a 70’s vibe, but still it is so “now”!

*

This spectacular living room is painted a glossy gray all over. Even the huge bookshelf, which is placed directly behind the sofa, by the way. Hints of purple adds a regal touch, all topped of with a huge crystal chandelier.

*

Two shades of purple in this super modern bedroom. The crisp white details really pop!

*

Divine pink dining room. Nothing softens a room like light translucent curtains.. And what about the carpet? It’s pretty fabulous, right?

*

Orange hallway with crisp white furniture and accents. The lamp is designed by Jonathan Adler:

*

*

How about you? Are you bold enough to take on bright colors like these? Do you think you would grow bored of a bright color quicker than of a neutral color?

Beautiful tan dining room with brown and white. Posh, classic and timeless.

*

Tan masculine bedroom. Love the carpet!

*

Equally masculine bathroom. Check out the polished floor!

Take a look at this gorgeous living room designed by Kim Coleman:

*

Greige and cream living room with olive green (my fave color) chairs and details.

*

I love how Kim combines ultra classic with super modern. You wouldn’t guess there would be a zebra skin rug in this living room from looking at the top pic, would you?

*

Take a look at this multi patterned dining room designed by Sherrill Canet. This room is breaking just about all the rules of pattern combination, and it works surprisingly well!

*

Small, high contrast pattern on both walls and floor. Zebra mirror frame over the fireplace, and pattern-paintings on the wall! The room is accented with yellow, and even the ceiling got that note.

*

Same room with different chairs. I love this horn dining table. Impressing!

*

White yellow and green makes for a great summer color palette, don’t you think?

*

Sunflower pattern on both rug and blinds. This is fresh.

*

A lovely light living room. What do you think about that coffee table?

*

A small work space.

*

Apothecary jars are gret for storing in height, and is also super decorative. Can go anywhere from bathroom to kitchen too, lol.

*

1) Fish decor. 2) Fish vase. 3) Snailhouse candle holder. 4) Coral candle holder.

Cute white beach-themed decor!
