"Beyond" chic

1/11/2013

I spotted this shower curtain in Elle Decor magazine a while back and keep going back to it. Like many Queens NYC residents, I have the ubiquitous pink tile in my bathroom. Thanks for nothing, Mamie Eisenhower. Rumor has it her penchant for pink cursed everyone dwelling in post War construction. Like we weren't cursed enough.

I have pink tile, with black accents in my bath. As such, my shower curtain options are somewhat limited. I've had my current curtain for about 4 years now, and she's had a good run, but it's time to put her out to pasture.

I wanted to share a few pictures for a room setting I'm working on. It's for my showroom in the Hamptons. We've already got the Nantucket look covered out there and it's very popular. I wanted to bring in something a little more Bermuda. By that, I mean moving away from the more traditional nautical look of blue and white, instead integrating bright pops of color. The main pieces will be fairly neutral (ivory sectional, light wood coffee table and media unit) to stay in line with what actual clients would choose to do in their own home--and to keep all of the pieces useful for the designers to use.

It's time once again for some changes in the showroom where I spend my days. I'm lucky that my location is a bit larger so I have a little more flexibility.

I pulled this bedroom together using black furniture with lots of cream and tan fabrics to keep it from getting too heavy. A few bright splashes of color, inspired by the floral fabric on the windows (detailed shot below) and pillows, keep it lively.
