GOING GREY

August 21, 2012 By Emi Leave a Comment

Grey is one of those colors that can be a little bit scary to work with. I guess it’s because its easy to think of grey as a boring color that you often see in a gloomy office space. Well… get used to it! It is such a great neutral. It provides drama, warmth, and impact.

Whites and golds are a great way to brighten up a gray room and keep it from feeling gloomy.

Throw in some stained wood to make it a little more traditional.

It’s also a good color for trim! It’s a little unexpected and can add some interest to a traditional space.

These bunk beds are just so fun! They went with grey walls, trim, stairs and I wouldn’t change it for a second.

Now for some rooms that definitely went for the drama factor…

That last one was the home of the AMAZING Bobby McAlpine. I mean… it doesn’t get much more spectacular than that.

Hopefully I’ve inspired some of you to step out of your comfort zone and add some grey to your homes too!

BEACH BATHROOM

August 3, 2012 By Emi 2 Comments

Remember that post we did a while back about a beautiful beach house near Alys beach? Well, we’ve got some more work to do!

The master bathroom was pretty… But could have been taken up a few notches. This homeowner is entirely too creative to keep it this way. She was determined to make it a special place. After seeing her inspiration pics, we decided to get a little creative too!

Check out the bathroom before…

Now take a look at these fun inspiration pics…

Things we took away from the inspiration pictures:

open storage (we are adding a skirt in front)
vessel sinks
wall mount faucets
better lighting (a must)
overall softer look

We went straight to the drawing board and started designing a new vanity. After a few adjustments, this is the final drawing.

The entire vanity – including the back splash – will be made from heart pine and washed in a sheer, light grey finish.

VANITY FINISH

Open shelving will be hidden by custom drapery.

The entire wall above the back splash will be mirror which will help brighten up the space. The sconce a will be mounted 66″ above the floor – this provides much more flattering light than sconces mounted above a mirror like you saw in the before pictures. It will be in Oil Rubbed Bronze.
