mood board monday: soothing graphic retreat

i am always daydreaming 

about my "someday house"...

so this week, i decided to play 

along with mood board monday

at pewter + sage,

and create a fictional room

for my "new" house.

the inspiration was a series of framed 

art from the new collection from patch nyc

for west elm. (aren't they gorgeous?)

i loved the grey and camel/mustard colors

of the prints, so i used those colors as my scheme. 

i chose the "rose" and "thistle" prints 

to design my room around:

my room is a den, 

and i infused it with the organic influence from the

botanical prints, and added a dose of metallic sheen

and some graphic elements to create a soothing

and sophisticated space where i would love

to hang out.

1. the warm tones of the gold venetian mirror and 

patch nyc wall art balance the cool tones of
benjamin moore's  coventry grey on the walls.

2. roman shades in celerie kemble'e betwixt in bisquit/ivory

trimmed in greek key trim. i love the mix of these two graphic,

elements together.

3. the ornate feel of the suzette chair from horchow adds contrast to

the clean lines of the other furniture in the space.

i love this chair because it could easily be a chair that

was rescued from a flea market, and reupholstered to give it

a fabulous second life. the costello stool adds a 

fun dose of metallic glam, and functions

as a great place to set a book or a drink. an orchid and gold

toned birds from oly would be great accessories in this space, that

complement the botanical/nature theme of the inspriration art.

4. the hutton sofa from room and board in mustard velvet
 becomes a great backdrop for a collection of fun pillows:

black white koko 26" pillow

grey/ivory stripe pillow
patch NYC pigeon pillow
pillow in padna fabric

5. the fretwork side chair echos the pattern
on the roman shades and is extremely affordable.
another striped pillow, as well as a pillow in surankari fabric
strengthen the color scheme and add more pattern.
the everglades silver tray adds another metallic hit
to the room, and the weathered wood ball adds texture.


 5. the richard nixon rug from jonathan adler,
anchors the space, and picks up on the dark frames of the 
patch nyc art. the dark manhattan side table,also from target, 
holds a distressed wood turned spindle lamp.
