A home’s entry is one of the most important spaces to decorate and organize. It’s the place where you will meet & greet guests, take on and off shoes and hang up coats and scarves. And for this, it needs to be both beautiful and functional. This chic modern entry was designed by Lauren Nelson and recently featured in San Francisco Cottages & Gardens.

Friday Find :: Caroline Cecil Textiles

You know I have a thing for textiles, so when I was introduced textile designer, Caroline Cecil I knew I had to share her creations with you! Based in San Francisco, Cecil has worked in the textile industry for years designing for A-list fashion designers including Vera Wang and Carolina Herrera before launching her own company. In her debut collection, “La Vie Imprimée” the art of hand screen printing in celebrated. French for “a printed life”, the title reflects the process by which they produce the fabrics. Each design begins as an india ink painting, and is translated onto heritage and premium ground cloths via hand screen printing. (swoon!) The collection delivers brilliant colors, contemporary patterns and gorgeous quality. I think you’ll love it too!

San Francisco Decorator Showcase :: Kitchen & Family Room

The first thing to catch my eye in the kitchen of this year’s San Francisco Decorator Showcase by Navarra Design was the traditional La Cornue range and hood in glossy chocolate with brass detailing. (swoon) It was coupled with a contemporary verre églomisé backsplash (gilded glass) featuring dandelions. It’s a magical combo. Navarra keeps the inset cabinetry clean in a crisp white, yet adds a contrasting cerused oak island. The kitchen space is unified with striking calacatta marble countertops. The metal and wood bar counter is an unexpected element placed perpendicular to the island and is the perfect spot for the homeowner’s kids. The high lacquer ceiling in teal blue was a wonderful way to incorporate a burst of color and bring the kitchen and family room together. The family room’s breakfast nook is set in the window and delivers breathtaking views of the San Francisco Bay. (it’s lovely)
