TALE OF A TWO TONED KITCHEN

September 11, 2013

Farmhouse style kitchen with grey and white color blocked walls, pine wood floors, rattan furniture and white pendant lights

Oooohhh…I like this modern farm style open floor plan kitchen, den, dining room from Dan Scotti Design.  Two toned walls and cabinets make a huge design statement.  I love the high ceilings, charcoal gray wood paneling and the clerestory windows.  So much light but effectively incorporates a rich dark color.

So many styles mixed in one space but they work…the farmhouse style feeling kitchen with its gray (maybe soapstone counters), the rustic country knotty pine wide plank wood floors, the Palm Beach like rattan furniture in the den and then the mid century dining table and Hans Wegner chairs in the dining room.  Doesn’t feel like all  of those styles should work together but they do.

Nice, bright, airy, convivial space.  Perfect for cooking big meals and inviting lots of people over.

So what do you think of this two toned kitchen?  Like or dislike?  What might you add to it or take away.

I would leave it as is…although I might change out the round pendant lights…not sure but I might.

Happy Wednesday.

P.S.  Soooo many of you have asked about the turquoise painting in my living room featured on Monday’s post.  I went to the artist and will reveal who it is by tomorrow and more of his latest work!  Please stand by.

    Maybe the counters are polished concrete? Did you see the concrete-like lines in the close-up? Hmmm. Lovely, whatever it is!

    At first I thought I loved it, but I think it would have been much more stunning to have the white go all the way up to the ceiling, not so sure about the cut off line.

    Hi! I know I’m really late to the game but I love this kitchen so much. Are you sure the third pic is the same kitchen? I can’t for the life of me figure out where it is supposed to be… Happy New Year 🙂

This is that time I was invited to take a privateThis is that time I was invited to take a private tour of a spectacular Paris apartment right on the Seine in the 7th arrondissement. Fabulously furnished by @hugobesnier_ . What a fun morning visit I had just enjoying the decor and design.

Life doesn’t always look the way we imagined it woLife doesn’t always look the way we imagined it would.
There will be seasons when everything seems to be falling into place, and seasons when we’re simply trying to find our footing again.
Both matter.
You don’t have to rush through the hard seasons or feel behind because you’re not where you thought you’d be.
Give yourself permission to grow at your own pace. What’s happening beneath the surface matters too.
Trust the process. Trust your timing. Keep going. ✨

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. 🤎

Summer is when this courtyard really comes alive.Summer is when this courtyard really comes alive. 🌸
One thing I’ve learned is that every outdoor space needs a focal point. It gives your eye a place to land and makes the whole space feel more intentional.
In this courtyard, the bougainvillea naturally becomes that focal point, adding color, height, and movement without overwhelming the space.
If you’re designing your own patio or garden, start with one standout feature, then let everything else support it.
Save this tip for your next outdoor project. ✨
