From a new series on spring color stories. Continued from yesterday.
This room I am envisioning as a possible Master Bedroom Concept. I love the unusual plumbish purple of the floral, and it lends itself well to bringing in other varying shades of purple, cream, even warmer red-orange-pinks. This would be all in a creamy wall space with some sort of textural floor covering, but not with a huge amount of pattern. I like the way this is both soft, sophisticated, classic with a tiny bit of a fun edge. Thoughts?

The colors are so beautiful. Would love to see what you do with them. We find this selection so daring.
You have me on a purple kick. After yesterdays color swatches I resurrected a couple purple gourd lamps from the basement.
i know it wouldn’t make sense for you to divulge ur sources, but i am dying to know who makes that purple hot-house esque fabric…
I am not one to keep secrets; there is a mix but the one(s) you are thinking of are either canvas or osborne.
I meant canovas; damn auto-correct!
Is this going to be a whole house of color stories?? I recently finished design school and have only worked a few small commercial projects but I love your use of color, it has been my inspiration for all of my projects~!!. Any advice for a gal just starting out? How to move into a residential circuit?
Send me your resume if you live in Boston.
Yes it will be a whole house of textile plans. Too much to show whole room boards.
This is really lovely. Love the Chanel-y tweed. May be a little flowery for the Mr. but nothing a few deer heads won’t balance out.
ooooo ahhhhhh…. what are your plans for the striped number?
I thought that was a Canovas too – it’s beautiful. I love these color story/textile posts too.
Yummers…..I am loving that combo…
