A minimalist country home

Love how this gorgeous country home in Mallorca has just the right amount of minimalist and still feels warm and elegant.

My current project


I wanted to apologize for the less frequent posts. I just started working on a new project in the Upper West side decorating an apartment in a pre-war building. I've been leaving home early and coming back late in the day. I promise I'll be posting pictures as soon as I have the time to download them to the computer.

Probably the smallest room in the house. Powder rooms are therefore the perfect place to experiment with.

Tom Scheerer opted for the wallpaper in brown for this very good looking powder room and foyer.
Kelly Wearstler
Kelly Wearstler chose the black one to keep this game/sitting room intimate.
Meg Braff
Meg Braff revived her office using the wallpaper in blue.

I absolutely love this wallpaper. In which room do you like it the most? I honestly can't pick one. I love it in all three colors. I know what you are thinking. Where to find it. I think you can order it here.

Modern Chinoiserie

I prefer rooms that don't scream a specific theme or era. I've been accumulating images of rooms with little influences of Chinoiserie. I love that each of these rooms has just the right amount of Chinoiseire-inspired details that go from padoga chandeliers, lacquered furniture, wallpaper, Chinese figurines, etc.
Michael Smith
In this Michael Smith room above de gournay wallpaper adds a garden touch.
Tom Stringertapetries
I love how young and fresh this Tom Stringer room looks on the left where the padoga chandelier gives the influence.
