Reader request – bookshelf vignettes

23 Sep

Today’s reader request is from Eva in Toronto: I was wondering if you could perhaps provide some inspiration on how to decorate and style some build-in units in a main living space? I would love to see how others around the world have filled these spaces with treasures/books/objects d’art so that I can do the same in my home. Simple enough request, but sometimes quite a daunting task to get vignettes looking just right. I constantly change items on display in my house as I am never happy with them and get bored quick. Observing how others display objects can help us rethink how our own pieces are used. For example, I have a bunch of spray painted black vases (leftover from my wedding) on some shelving, and I took a wide/short vase and stuck 2 skinny/tall vases in it. I have a stack of about 8 books on the same shelving, standing upright with the tallest at the back and shortest at the front that way you get a peek at the cover of each book (seen here). Hopefully the following group of photos help to inspire Eva’s built-in displays.

Reader request – double desks

26 Aug

Today’s reader request is from logsy: I recently discovered your blog (love it) and found myself wading through the first 100 pages in one sitting. Throughout this I saw a double desk (two chairs, two computers, side by side) and forgot to save the picture for inspiration. I now can’t find the page it was on. With this in mind, I was wondering if you’d consider doing a blog post on double desks? Here you go logsy, some side by side desks and a few that are different options for 2-for-1 workspaces.

Jo is off taking care of the move to her new home (YAY!!) and I’m here taking care of business. To end off the work week, I wanted to share the work of New York interior design shop MH Studio. The M is for Shari Markbreiter, who “brings a fresh energy to traditional luxury. Her inspired blending of color, form and texture produce consistently sophisticated and comfortable interiors“. The H is for Benjamin Huntington, who has over 20 years of training in the art of Feng Shui. Together they create wonderful spaces, and I love how they utilize every inch of space (which in New York is necessary).
