Jonathan Adler mid-century inspired dining room

I’m loving that bar carts and cabinets are making a comeback! One in particular that has caught my attention is Jonanthan Adler’s Delphine Mirrored Bar. It’s clean lines are characteristic of the mid-century modern inspired designs Adler is known for, however this cabinet is not at all minimalist. The cabinet is covered in antique mirrored glass which perches one a shiny brass base. The exterior is finished off with gorgeous quatrefoil brass pulls. It’s all glam! In addition, the interior offers a surprise of bright turquoise that’s so fun. Leave it to Adler to add a fun pop of color!

Design Crush :: Christine Dovey’s Home

February 19, 2014 · Comments { 3 }

Did you see Christine Dovey’s home featured last week on Style Me Pretty? Hello gorgeous. Christine, a stylist, mother of three and the voice behind the Bijou & Boheme, collaborated with interior designer, Meredith Heron (who I had the pleasure of hanging out with while in Vegas for BlogTour -love her!!!) on the project. The result is simply stunning. With a balanced mix of various period styles from mid-century modern to Art Deco, the home is all glam and all Christine.

You’ll see from some of my favorite images that Christine has embraced several current decor trends including the use of brass (hardware, lighting and furnishings), wallpaper (foyer, girl’s bedroom) and geometric patterns (textiles, rugs throughout). Love it!

Palm Springs Mid-Century Modern by Brian Dittmar

February 6, 2014 · Comments { 2 }

It’s that time of year we start thinking about taking a warm weather holiday. Palm Springs has been one of my favorite sun-drenched destinations. The sunny desert community has a wonderful, laid back feel I love. It’s also home to some of the best mid-century architecture and interiors around.

To put us in the mood, today we are touring a beautiful desert vacation getaway San Francisco’s Brian Dittmar designed for his Northern California clients. Fondly referred to as the “Atomic Tiki” house by Brian, it was built in 1965 in the Golf Club Estates section of South Palm Springs and has an unusual Polynesian-style roofline with mid-century interior. The result is colorful, playful and looks like a set from Mad Men. Makes me want to book a trip to Palm Springs today.

My design brief was to make carefully considered, artful and subtle changes that would refresh the interiors while keeping the residence’s original vibe through a mix of mid-century furnishings and pieces with subtle Polynesian references. – Brian Dittmar

Nesting Tables

October 24, 2013 · Comments { 2 }

nesting table in living room

I’m always on the lookout for multi-functional furniture, and there is nothing more versatile than a good set of nesting tables. These practical pieces work in a variety of settings from living rooms to bedrooms. I like to use them as extra drink tables for guests in our living room, while the kids like to use them as desks when playing school. However you use them, I promise: Once you have some, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without them! Here are some of my favorite nesting tables in a variety of styles.
