Welcome Fall 2010

Today is the first day of Fall!  So, let's look forward to sunny days and crisp cool evenings, carving pumpkins and falling leaves.  Do you remember this cozy image from Grace Bonney's apartment, featured in the Premiere Issue of Lonny Magazine?  It just feels like "Fall" to me: I love the punch of red, the warm chocolately plaid, and the classic mid-century modern chair...



It inspired me to design an equally cozy (virtual) living room...  incorporating the preppy plaid, warm woods, mid-century modern pieces, and a punch of red! 

 (confession: this has now become our inspiration board for a future library)

What were my resources? I'm glad you asked:

Mitchell Gold sofa, Wisteria mirror, Jayson Home & Garden coffee table, Paul Marra light fixture, CB2 red pillow, Pendleton wool banket, Jens Chair from DWR, Pottery Barn rug, CB2 floor lamp, Diptyque candle, and vintage racehorse oil painting.



I'm ready to curl up with a good book (I just starting reading this one!) and drink warm tea. 
Welcome Fall 2010!

    Your design board for the library would be so pretty (and masculine at the same time!) Hard to feel fall here when it is 95 degrees outside! --Gretchen O.
