look of the week: decor

i love this decor style from fifilynn's photostream on flickr. she has incorporated reproductions that have a mid century vibe into a vintage/mid century modern home. i like how she has kept some of the original features of her home and how she has made some new noteworthy changes.

big window challenge

three interior designers give it their best for this years big window challenge at new york's bloomingdale's. they have all done such great work. go to this site and check out the competitors and vote for your fav!

i love this design done by apartment therapy's, Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan. titled, "the writer's romantic supper".

chicago modern

a newly renovated home in chicago offers a light-drenched modern appeal. this was orignally a townhome in lincoln park (an area of chicago) and was completely rehabbed by architect Sig Froelich of Froelich Kim. there are more and more homes here in chicago going the modern route rather than the traditional (yay!)

love the light marble paired with sleek stainless steel

granny chic

granny chic, i love you. don't the bright colors and flowers make you want to smile? i sure adore it. it's very fun to go to a thrift store or antique mall to grab something 50 years old and make it 'new' again. patterns, doilies, colors, oh my!

this floral chair paired with the kelly green lamp makes me drool

(via absolutely beautiful things)

doilies, oh doilies, you are God (and art)
