Introducting the Timothy Corrigan Rug Collection & 5 Favorites

March 19, 2014 · Comments { 0 }

Named one of Architectural Digest’s top 100 architects and designers in the world for nine years, Timothy Corrigan is a master at creating laid-back luxe interiors. Although born in the United States, Corrigan’s love of classical European style is evident in all of his projects. In addition, it’s paramount for the design icon to create spaces that are inviting, livable and comfortable. Love this!

Timothy Corrigan fabrics for Schumacher

Corrigan recently introduced a beautiful new collection of fabrics and furnishings with Schumacher. As you can see from the sampling of fabrics above, the collection like his interiors, seamlessly blends European elegance with a chic California freshness. Pulling many of the same rich layers, patterns and colorways, Corrigan is debuting a new line of rugs with Patterson, Flynn & Martin. All nine rug patterns are completely customizable – pick your own colors and even change the pattern’s scale. I’m in love and think you will be too. Have a look at my five favorites…

What’s your favorite?

happy decorating,

In fact, this month’s ideabook for Houzz is dedicated to the snakeskin trend in home decor and here are a few products featured in the roundup…

With the world watching and amazingly just one day after the birth, Prince William and Duchess Kate emerged yesterday from the hospital to introduce their son, the tiny Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge (name announced today!). From the beginning, the couple has pushed royal traditions and now want to raise their son on their terms. So, don’t you think it’s fitting that the baby, who’s third in line to the throne should have a nursery that communicates this modern monarchy? I do, so I pulled some nursery items with modern flair, perfect for the new prince.

Friday Find: West Elm Summer 2013

March 22, 2013 · Comments { 6 }

Okay, I know. Spring just arrived and I’m rushing you into summer months! But, just had to show you images of what West Elm has in stores now for summer. One trends you’ll see in the collection is the use of vibrant color … from watermelon to lagoon blue there is sure to be a shade you’ll love! Adding a colorful new rug, chair or throw pillow is an easy way to give your home a fresh look for summer.

I’m leading off with my favorite image. I’m in love with these gorgeous silk pillows by Pauline Reyes (below). A native of Mexico City, Pauline’s pillows were inspired by the vibrant colors and patterns in the Talavera pots her mom had in the house.
