Monday Inspiration

I usually started my Monday morning super earlier and love to start my week by searching inspiration from all aspects of life : fashion, hospitality, art, natural… By doing so, it usually drives away any possible Monday Blue. Although those images I chose below appears un-relevant to each other, they somehow connect with each other either in large scales, fresh color palettes, extranet forms, or unexpected pairing.

i4b7c3665b8c34cc9131b3e00c013bd30 — unexpected pairing of stripe and abstract create a visual drama

i8edb68a9e4f9dd2227247cdf5387c0d8 — cute mysterious

green and mint–a fresh pairing starting from this Fall.

Sunday Mood-board—Bold color and Pattern

Good morning! How’s your Sunday going so far? I woke up earlier and watered my garden first. I feel it is such a bless for me to enjoy my garden in the morning. I love to observe how morning sun light shines through the greeneries with a little cute dew drops. It is such a romantic moment for me. What’s your Sunday mood? what color are you in mood for today?

We visited an art installation yesterday and it is about colorful rolling-hill landscape in Ireland. I’ve never been to Ireland and I guess people there must be very happy. You know that is true since we all have a good time on St. Patric’s Day. so here is my sunday color block mood-board. Enjoy!

aIMG_1001 — Do you agree with me that stripe is classical summer pattern.

aIMG_1016 — a fashion statement with color blocks.

aIMG_1041 — Field Rest with a lot of blue shades

aIMG_2294 — a pose with yellow and orange

Happy Sunday

Beautiful Rooms

Happy Friday! I have worked on specifying dimmer- able LEDs for the whole week and it took a lot of time to communicate back -and- forth with vendors for so many details. Now I feel I need a break to see some beautiful rooms, rooms that use quite unique color schemes, rooms that are eye candy for a Friday retreat. Are you ready? Here we go:

greyandwhiteliving-room-9-1537479929 — Love, love, love this color palette: white-on-white, grey and light wood-tones–modern yet classic.

greyandwhiteliving-room-16-1537539404 — It’s grey and white color scheme again. But I like pop of violet color on the artworks. Mix-and-match of furniture in this living room space is quite interesting too.

greyandwhiteliving-room-ideas-alex-papachristidis1-1510956865 — Grey-and-white color palette with pop of blue on the artworks. Brass, fresh flowers and antiques add a touch of warmth and elegance to this modern living room.

greyandwhiteliving-room-ideas-steven-gambrel1-1510177287 — Grey–white-and-black color palette with pop of orange on the vintage console table, piping on the chair make the space edgy yet super sophisticated.

greyandwhiteliving-room-ideas4-1524244962 — Silver-blue-black color scheme makes this living space very cool and edgy. Yet the velvet and mirror wall , vintage art pieces adds interests, depth and warmth.

greyandwhiteliving-room-ideas8jpg-1524248779 — A touch of blue and brass with a beautiful view in this light-filled high-rising living room make it inviting, playful and up-scale.

greyandwhite1454701364-edc030116tomei01-copy — Now we got some colors. But I love that muted creamy wall by the fire-place side with a pale pinkish under-tone.

Happy Friday

Interiors of Gloria Vanderbilt’s Family Homes

Fashion icon, socialite, and artist and interior designer Gloria Vanderbilt has died at the age of 95. Inspired by her quote on home decor :”Decorating is autobiography,” and quote on art:”Art brings a message into a room. It should make us perceive in a new way—either through color, form or narrative content—something we had not perceived before. And perhaps reveal something to you about yourself.”, today, I would like to share some of my favorite interiors by her and, of course her styles:

Like every creative person, throughout the years, she was constantly changing, painting, embellishing, and reconfiguring her houses in New York City and Long Island. It was like therapy for her from time to time. Visit her instagram to see her legendary life

Hope you enjoy all of these!

A Beautiful tabletop in Sun-filled Room

Finally, rain stops and sun is out. And most importantly, the weather is finally getting warm up to 70 degree in Los Angeles. I know it has been a weird cold for a very long time since last Nov. I think I prefer the warmer weather with a lot sunshines. Who wouldn’t?

Well, it is March and spring is just around the corner and Easter is coming soon. I just cannot wait to put up a beautiful outdoor tabletop for entertaining with some fresh color palettes and romantic components. What about you?

So, I decided to go through some photos and videos from the events we have been to recently for inspiration. Then I found this video I shot—I wish I could have done it better. Maybe next time. But the whole set-up, organic components, the sun-lights, crystals and yummy cookies in pastel colors and of course fresh flower pedals really talk to me. I love how they have a large wood branch as a center piece with elegant crystal sculptures scattering around. The contrast between organic elements and high-polished items creates such a beautiful , moody, refined yet relaxed and casual atmosphere. And fresh flower pedals all over the table are just such a romantic touch. It’s a dream afternoon.
