Peninsula Volunteers Decorator Show House :: Teen Girl’s Bedroom

For this year’s Peninsula Volunteers Decorator Show House interior Designer, Teri Pollard of Designworks Morgan Hill creates an equestrian chic bedroom room retreat for a tech-savvy teenage girl. With a view of the barn and meadow below, the knotty pine covered  bedroom gives a nod to the tack rooms and reflects the equestrian lifestyle of many teens living in Woodside, California. A laptop, large flat screen TV and “I love blogging” pillow tell us this Silicon Valley young lady equally enjoys writing a blog, posting on Facebook and pinning her favorite images.

Placed above the built-in bed and trundle, the framed horse show ribbons are a clever and elegant way to display a ribbon collection and protect it for years to come.

Colorful and feminine floor length drapes and other upholstery throughout the room help soften the room’s dominate knotty wood pine raised paneling.

Next to the desk, a black and white photograph of an girl with her horse is placed on an easel, while riding equipment sits below. It’s a lovely detail as well.

If you haven’t already, I encourage you to tour this lovely Woodside estate. It’s only open until this Friday, May 24th.

And in case you missed it, here’s a tour of the Show House’s Guest Bedroom , Mother-in-Law Suite, Foyer and Card Room.

Happy Monday,

Cristin

Peninsula Volunteers Decorator Show House :: Chinoiserie Foyer

Interior Designer, Mary Linn Coldiron of Coldiron Interiors creates a stunning entry for the Peninsula Volunteers Decorator Show House in Woodside, California. The two-story foyer features beautiful quarter-saw wood paneling, a wall of French doors and a grand staircase. Under layers of paint and paper the original French wallpaper with Chinoiserie bamboo motif was discovered and restored. The wallpaper’s blue hue was repeated in the rug, accessories and wall leading to the second floor. Bamboo furnishings and blue and white Chinese pottery add to the room’s chic Chinoiserie style. In the room’s center, an elegant settee in tangerine velvet is paired with a resting dog statue and charming hoofed side tables.

Hopefully you get the opportunity (if in the San Francisco Bay Area) to tour this gorgeous Woodside estate. It’s only open one more week until May 24th, so don’t delay!

And in case you missed it, here’s a tour of the Show House’s Guest Bedroom , Mother-in-Law Suite and Card Room.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend!

Peninsula Volunteers Decorator Show House :: Guest Bedroom & Bath

Melodie Rubin of House of Ruby designed the Traveler’s Bedroom, a serene guest retreat for the Peninsula Volunteers Decorator Show House in Woodside, California going on now until May 24th. The sunlit second floor bedroom as Melodie puts it, “offers the best seat in the house, providing an impressive view of the three-story birch tree and Woodside hills beyond.”

Guest Bedroom - Peninsula Decorator Show House - House of RubyEmbroidered linen window treatments inspired the room’s tranquil color palette of  lavender, blues, greens and ivory. It’s the gilded canopy bed however, that takes center stage. I love that it has a soft upholstered headboard – it’s a nice juxtaposition to the metal frame. An ornate hand-beaded floral chandelier (which reminded me of a birdcage) hangs elegantly above a seating area placed at the foot of the bed.

The pair of Bunny Williams table lamps beautifully mimic the movement and pattern in throw pillows on the sofa love-seat. Those table lamps are gorgeous and are a personal favorite.

Melodie (pictured above) designed a custom corner bookshelf lined in blue paint. It not only balances the room, but displays beautiful collections of art, books and worldly treasures. I also loved the sculpture of the colorful archer she selected and place just beside the bookcase.

Just of the guest bedroom is the Dressing Room and Bath by Jana Meewes Fung of Julianne Quelle Interior Design. It’s restful sage, lavender and taupe color palette allows for a seamless transition between the two spaces. Standout elements in this space include an exquisite Venetian mirror, bamboo “Dynasty” chair and luxurious fabrics.

These spaces are so fresh, crisp and chic. Love! Don’t you?

One of the last great estates on the San Francisco Peninsula is the home of the 2013 Peninsula Volunteers Inc. Decorator Show House. Located in Woodside, California just south of San Francisco, the 11,000 square foot 1930’s Monterey Colonial features 20 beautifully decorated designer rooms and is situated on a 21-acre estate with breathtaking vistas of the hillside.  This is the first designer home event on the Peninsula in a decade, so it’s quite special for us that live nearby.
