Living Room

MIX IT UP!

December 29, 2011
  • Share
Living room with built in book shelves, traditional decorative ceiling molding, blue and white ikat rug, white barcelona chairs with matching ottomans, bentwood chairs, a modern light blub chandelier and a blue sofa

I am back after a 5 or 6 day break.  Has been wonderful spending time with family and getting caught up on all things COCOCOZY.

In January, I am dashing off to Atlanta and New York to show the COCOCOZY textiles collection once again to buyers from all over the country…so these last few days of 2011 have been spent getting all in order to hit the road.  I am so excited to present some new designs, new construction, and some brand new categories I am trying out with my designs!  All the standards…luxury pillows, gorgeous throws, drapery, bedding and candles will still all be standards in the mix but adding a few more items that I hope you all like. So exciting.  A little overswhelming.  Hard to focus with so much to get done.  Must focus.  Just trying to mix it up a bit in the New Year.

Speaking of mixing it up…this living room does just that. Grand classic architecture mixed with mid century modern iconic furniture (white leather Barcelona Chairs, an Arco floor lamp, Cherner wood chairs on the left) and a 1980’s designed Taraxacum 88 suspension pendant light taking center stage as a chandelier in the space.  The sleek modern wall shelving is adds even more modern to the traditiional bones of the space.

Embracing the old and bringing in the new.  Hmmm…feels like this is appropriate for this time of year.

Happy Thursday!

P.S.  Went to a fab party last night at the home of fab friend and super publicist Sarah Robarts of Ballantines PR.  It was lots of fun.  A ton on the schedule today too…hmmm…how to fit it all in plus a little hike on Runyon Canyon?  Must get started!

    I wish I had had this info while living in our 1800’s home in Savannah. I love the mixed up look…but was intimidated by such a formal house…and had difficulty decorating it. Where were you then??? :))) This room is fabulous!!! We now live in a Cape Cod cottage style home…and it’s pretty amazing…no problem decorating this one!!!! 🙂

    You know what I love about that living room? The books — real books, a jumble of colors and styles suggesting that people actually read them, with the spines facing out so we can see what they are. No white wrapping paper or stacks of coverless paperbacks tied together with twine. I love how this mass of real books is tightly packed to fill the space that might otherwise have been taken by a large painting. The look is modern, artsy, and very inviting.

Martha's Vineyard house tour part 1. Here is a tou Martha's Vineyard house tour part 1. Here is a tour of the rental house we had in Edgartown on MV this summer. A new build about 5 minutes from the center of town. 3500 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 4 baths and a pool. House bad that beach house or coastal style decor. We were the first to rent it. What do you think? Would you rent thjs? Do you want to see the bedrooms?
It was our 2nd summer on the Vineyard. Next year, we are renting for the month. Same house. 💃🏾 I would love a bit bigger so more people could come but finding good rentals is hard on the Vineyard. Feel very lucky to have spent a magical few weeks in this spot.

Comment YES if you want to see a tour of this Mart Comment YES if you want to see a tour of this Martha's Vineyard house. I rented this house for our two week stay in Martha's Vineyard. A few minutes walk to the center of Edgartown. The house was heaven. We were the first renters to stay in this newly built house.
