Three rooms…three countries…I like

Was browsing through Interiors Magazine and found these spaces…from Cuba, Thailand and right here in the U.S.

Three living rooms…three very different interpretations…one unifying color…international blue!

A 1960’s white leather chair, a Cassina sofa, a low Jansen table and a painting by Isabel von Bayern make for a striking space in New York, New York. (above)

Which of these rooms are you most drawn to…?  Which space could you be happy living in?

Happy happy Friday!

P.S.  Lots to catch up on in the P.S. section…will P.S. up a storm next week!

P.P.S.  Was raining here when I woke up at 5:30a.  Now it is later in the morning (running late oy va voy) and the sun has come out.  Love when a good rain washes away all of the muck in the air.  Only problem is that I am missing half of a roof over my tiny tiny tiny side deck.  Hmmm…need to get that fixed.  Hmmmmm…..

    Hi Coco…I’ve been one of your avid followers for quite awhile and love your fabric/pillow line. Could we hope that someday that you make some of your fab patterns into wallcoverings?

    I love the charm and character of the first picture but the New York space is the most comfortable in terms of living. Not big on blue though.

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. 🤎

The spaces that get it right pair it with warm oak, aged brass, and something worn-in: an antique dresser, a vintage runner, a hand-thrown vase.
