CHEAP TO CHIC: MUSING OVER MALACHITE!

December 4, 2012
  • Share
Malachite wallpaper in Kristi Bender's foyer with an organic circle table, parrot statues and two matching lamps with black shades

Love this foyer above. It was featured in Lonny Magazine a few months back. This entryway is in the home of my friend Kristi Bender of Wendy Schwartz Design. I’ve been to Kristi’s house and seen this foyer. I fell in love with the green Cole & Sons Malachite wallpaper.  Malachite is a green banded stone…it has been quite “in” as inspiration in design for awhile now…but for some reason I’m seeing it pop up a lot this holiday season.

So today I bring you a CHEAP TO CHIC on all things malachite!

Happy Tuesday!

    with Panotne’s 2013 color of the year being emerald green this might actually be the newest trend. Although it does remind me a little bit of the 80’s kitchens and bathrooms that used that emerald green stone. But I really should keep that opinion to myself because I guarantee I fall in love with it by the time summer hits and I will be suggesting it to all of my clients:)

A great parquet floor doesn’t just ground a room. A great parquet floor doesn’t just ground a room. It tells you everything about the history of the space. The patina, the pattern, the way light moves across it. These are the rooms that prove good bones never go out of style.
What’s your favorite parquet pattern?

Designer Emma Donnersberg took her own Paris apartment in the 7th arrondissement and used it to rewrite the rules — classical bones, contemporary everything else. Her Wave Sofa and U&Me Table anchor the living room in organic curves. In the kitchen, a green ceramic-wrapped island does the heavy lifting for color against all that neutral stone. And the dining room? A Carrara travertine fireplace that turns stone into the whole point of the room.
Curved, curated, and completely hers. 🤍

A balcony this beautiful deserves a tour. 🤍 A litA balcony this beautiful deserves a tour. 🤍
A little peek at one of my favorite outdoor spaces, which I designed years ago. The patterned tile, navy seating, white stucco, and layers of greenery make this balcony feel like a little room all its own.
I love how much personality you can create in a small outdoor space without making it feel overcrowded.
Save this for your next outdoor space refresh. 🍃

Want a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and invitingWant a bedroom that feels cozy, warm, and inviting? Start with these simple changes:
1. Layer your bedding. Mix sheets, a duvet, quilts, and throw blankets to create that plush, lived-in look.
2. Add warm lighting. Swap harsh overhead lighting for bedside lamps, sconces, or a statement light with a warm glow.
3. Bring in plenty of texture. Think linen, velvet, boucle, chunky knits, and soft rugs.
4. Keep the palette warm and calming. Soft neutrals, earthy tones, and muted colors instantly make a room feel more restful.
5. Mix in natural materials. Wood, rattan, woven accents, and stone add warmth and character.
6. Make the walls feel personal. Art, photographs, or even a statement headboard can make the room feel more finished.
7. Add something organic. A vase of branches, fresh flowers, or a little greenery can bring the room to life.
The goal isn’t to make your bedroom perfect. It’s to make it feel like a place you actually want to retreat to at the end of the day.
Save this for your next bedroom refresh. 🤎
