As the warm summer days transition to the cool and crisp days of fall, it’s the perfect time to cozy up our interiors. But just like you wouldn’t completely overhaul your wardrobe with the season, transitioning your space for fall doesn’t require a total overhaul either. Instead it’s about smart additions and working with what you have.
If I had my way, I’d paint every client’s walls white, or an ever so soft grey. Perhaps in a moment of daring, a deep saturated blue. If you’re not ready to commit to painting an entire room, how about just one wall? Or more specifically, the fifth wall?
That’s right, one of the easiest ways to make a statement and add drama to a space is to paint the ceiling, or at least use some Styrofoam ceiling tiles to create some texture in an otherwise redundant space. Too much? Stick around and I promise I’ll have you reconsidering by the end of this post.
While the thought of open shelving in kitchens may make you nervous, it’s an interior trend that just doesn’t want to let up. From open pipe to floating to built-ins, they are everywhere. And yes, no one wants their messy life out on display for everyone to see, but open shelving in kitchens creates the illusion of more space and allows for creativity and artistic expression.
Creativity and artistic expression? That’s right. When styled right, they not only allow easy access to all your everyday essentials, but offer a space to share a bit of who you are, in a room that can sometimes lack personality.
