I love the graphic and structured style of Noah Loesberg. He is inspired by the lower order of architecture - the elements of street level construction. It's edgy, raw and just plain cool. Check out his work at RHV Fine Art now through June 12.

I tell you what, these headboards from casa midy are doing it for me. I love modern and organic when they come together and play nice. And again I can't get over the whiskey (or as some like to say cognac) leather. I go to it over and again for projects of late. I love it.

Remember my northeast adventure last week? Well this is what we were up to. Project installs can be intense and make for a crazy week (I will have to share some behind the scenes footage with you in an upcoming post) especially when dealing with travel, time crunches, and snow. BUT I love it when a project turns out as we had envisioned. The payoff? The client is happy and that's really what it is all about. Curating a mix of existing accessories, furniture, and artwork along with some new pieces, we created a rustic yet elegant space with a bit of edge and sophistication. The neutral creams and grays provided a soft backdrop for the punches of graphite and gold throughout......

OK, so by now everyone knows that gray is all the rage. Gray walls, gray furniture, gray fingernails. We see it everywhere and I. LOVE. it. So, I wrote about it at my other hangout, Alluminare back in June. I'm posting a rerun here because selecting the right gray paint can be a nightmare without a bit of research. We finally got around to turning our bedroom and bath into a charcoal oasis and it looks fab. Selecting the gray paints was easy since I had done some research for this earlier post. I have been loving gray for some time and I really can’t bring myself to step away from it. It was the color of my bridesmaids dresses a couple of years ago, the color of my fabulous new sofa, and now the new shade of my master bedroom. Thankfully, gray and I don’t have to part ways any time soon because it is still very much a color of the moment. But the even better news is that gray is also timeless and classic so no worries of feeling dated if you to choose to incorporate this fantastic shade into your space. And paired with yellow (my fave), plums, golds, blues, it absolutely rocks. Gray can fade into the background (although it never cowers) or be boldly front and center. Whether it’s a soft whisper gray or a daring charcoal, it is a transformative shade that runs the gamut from modern to traditional based on it’s surrounding decor and architectural elements. And paint is one of the quickest and most affordable ways to introduce gray into your interiors.
Here is a roundup of incredible gray paints that make the cut. The paints are divided by cool, neutral, and warm:
Some great cool gray paints from light to dark are:
Pale Smoke by Benjamin Moore has a great soft, silvery feel.
Cumulus Gray by Martha Stewart is a lovely mid-tone cool gray.
Castle Gray by Farrow and Ball is a deep, smokey blue-gray that is mysterious and stormy.
Favorite Neutral Gray Paints from light to dark:
Sterling by Benjamin Moore is a great pale neutral gray with a smoky touch.
Adagio also by Benjamin Moore is a medium to deep neutral gray.
Mountain Road by Sherwin Williams is a great deep, dark, neutral gray.
Beautiful warm gray paints that made the list:
London Fog by Benjamin Moore is a subtle warm gray perfect for a bedroom.
Timber Wolf by Benjamin Moore is a fantastic medium warm gray for a kitchen or dining room.
Magnetite by Martha Stewart is a cozy, warm gray that is inviting and bold. (this one is in my Master) How do you feel about gray? Do you have it in your home?
P.S., I'm over at Alluminare every Monday so be sure to swing by and say hi and see more posts like these offering design and decor tips. Until next time....
