A Classic Kitchen For Modern Living

The essence of classic style with all the conveniences of modern life, this stunning white kitchen projects a shimmering reflection onto a rich, dark floor.
Warm, brown tones top the island and the range hood to provide a sophisticated contrast to the cool color temperature of the space.
The show stopper? The details! Check out the fine craftsmanship of the recessed panel cabinetry and the classic beauty of the moldings. The black shaded wall sconces are just delightful!

Writing Nook

A secluded passage way becomes a stylish home office in this nearly monochromatic design scenario.
Rich, brown tones are contrasted with black, antique pendants overhead that add a touch of drama and play a supporting role in the British Colonial atmosphere.
Important as well are louvered shutters and doors which, while playing a functional role, imbue an important textural element to the arrangement. A leafy spray of green in the background of the space softens the hard surfaces.
The color palette may be subtle and conservative, but the result are stunning! You are able to really focus on the details.

An Inspired Color Scheme

Taking its cues from colorful artwork, this casual living space features a fantastic array of hues that blend harmoniously.
A stone fireplace, exposed beams and horizontal ceiling boards provide a dramatic architectural environment for the u-shaped conversation area.
Blue shutters located on either side of the double window add a key decorative element that makes this space extra special (take a moment and imagine the shutters absent).
Artwork is a great jumping off point for a color scheme. I think this scheme is particularly effective because the colors are of a similar tonal value. It's beautiful!

Earthy Sophistication

A color scheme need not be particularly bold to be dramatic. This lovely interior by David Michael Miller Associates illustrates why.
Notice how the earthy color palette provides a calm backdrop for a smorgasbord of visual texture. From the rough brick, scrolling metal and textural upholstery to the smooth wood and adobe finishes, the rich juxtaposition of materials is an absolute treat to behold.
I think the corner fireplace is an extra special element in this space. It is a focal point that invites you to come on in and relax in comfort and style.
