For this very personal design project I'm totally utilizing my outlets & resources. I looked into the color trends our forecasting friends have chosen for the design industry in 2011. Out of Global Color Research's four different color palettes for 2011, I chose color story 3, based on my love for neutrals and the fun factor of red accents."Genteel: Genteel takes us on a journey through a traditional domestic setting where comfort is derived through familiar settings. With a largely neutral palette, drama is evoked through key highlights: carmine, scarlet and gold. A classic mood prevails."
I need to decide on a fun wallpaper for an accent wall that goes well with the color palette, drapery and flooring. Working in the design industry is such a disadvantage sometimes; you're surrounded by endless options but can only choose one! UGH! So I asked friends for help but that ended up making the decision even more difficult. Most chose B & C but my inner design aesthetic chooses either A or D (way more fun). It's an accent wall people! Ha!
The plan-of-attack is to make my studio look spacious- so less decor, clutter confined to storage areas, a clean color palette and most importantly minimal furniture usage.
Favorite spot? My little 1950's kitchen. Its adorable and gets lots of light. I love it so much I also made it my office :)
A "studio-warming" gift from my big sissy, to keep me busy. Thanks Tenaya!
Having no house mates is a little scary but I think I'll be just fine. It's just me and my clutter, gizmos & quirky decorative accents in my new little happy home. Let the Martha Stewart projects begin!
