light my fire

the simplicity and eccentric design of this fireplace draws me into this room. i think the white walls are where design is moving these days. it's not about the color on the walls anymore, but about the splashes of color in the decor pieces. what is this picture missing? a latte and an afghan to keep me warm.

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.
