Flawless foyer with high gloss black front door, marble inlay floor, Greek key trim roman shades and a Benjamin Moore Palladium Blue ceiling! (above)

I know I use the word “love” a lot…but I can’t help it. The word “love” so often describes my feeling for people yes of course…but also for interiors (I know…weird)! It might be over used in this type of context but I don’t care…I’m compelled to employ the word “love” when I see a space, a room, a home or a piece of furniture I love! I’m going to use it again right now…so please prepare…!

LOVE this foyer!

Enough said.

Happy Friday!

    Yes blue ceilings are amazing! I painted too light a blue from Pratt & Lambert in my dining room and hallway so it comes across more white with the light in my house. BUT when it works like in your posting, it really works!

    Just did my dining room ceilings in a lighter version of this color and LOVE them:) Now I’m on a mission with the doors to go black which led to this picture. Beautiful!

Alexis Banks Humiston didn’t just design this 9,20 Alexis Banks Humiston didn’t just design this 9,200 sq ft Nashville home, she moved in with the family for two days first.
She interviewed everyone, including the 6 and 8-year-olds, before touching a wall. The payoff shows up in the details: a hand-painted constellation ceiling in the son’s room by @willemrackestudio, a floral canopy bed for the daughter, and a hidden reclaimed-wood bar tucked into the attic eaves.
Every room feels like it was made to be lived in, not admired.

Velvet, woven wood, molded modern, sculptural, cast brass — seven islands, seven completely different takes on where you actually sit down. Some rooms go quiet with it, some go bold. Both work.

An easy fall tablescape you can actually recreate.An easy fall tablescape you can actually recreate. 🍂
You don’t need a perfectly styled table or a dozen new pieces to make a fall gathering feel special. Start with what you already have and layer in a few simple details.
Think woven placemats + simple white plates + gingham napkins + fresh greenery. Add clear glassware and a simple centerpiece, and you have a table that feels warm, collected, and ready for dinner with friends.
The best part? Most of these elements can work beyond fall, too. Just switch out the napkin pattern or greenery and you have a completely different look.
Save this for your next fall gathering and use it as a starting point for your own table. 🤎
