Fall Colors - Inside and Out

September holds a special day, the first day of Fall. We love the change of the weather and especially the colors! Pantone has released their beautiful collection of Fall Colors for 2016. The deep gem tones are simply stunning.

From blue hues to muted neutrals and bold gem tones, this Fall palette is full of gorgeous color. Warm Taupe, Riverside Blue, Airy Blue, and Sharkskin are beautiful together and they can also stand on their own. Here are some of our past projects using these pretty tones:

The gem collection features Spicy Mustard and Lush Meadow. We love these two colors together. They are the quintessential colors of Fall foliage, which is just too pretty to keep outside. Bring in the colors of the season – which are beautiful year-round, with an accent wall, accessories, and original art. Bold colors can sometimes be hard to commit to. Accessories, art, and pillows are wonderful solutions for bringing in color.

Three variations of red are the reds of the season. First is Dusty Cedar, then Potters Clay and Aurora Red. Each evoke a different mood and richness. Together, they remind me of the varying shades of a rust colored leaf or flower petals. These tones mirror the color of Fall.

The last color is perfectly named “Bodacious.” It can be powerful when paired with Spicy Mustard, or muted when placed alongside Warm Taupe or Sharkskin Gray. Below is a collection of when we used this color, and how pairing this Bodacious Pink with different colors makes for completely different looks. We love it!

Roswell Ranch Living: Part II

Last month we toured the heart of this lovely Roswell Ranch home where the open layout of the living room, kitchen and hearth room blends traditional design with modern sophistication. Now we move down the hall to the guest bathroom, guest room, and office that can cleverly convert to a second guest room. Adding touches of orange throughout pulls the entire home together. We had some fun with patterns as well!

Summer is almost here which means the season for family visiting from out of town is upon us. It’s always tricky trying to think of everything your guests may need. To make your guests feel at home, think of the little things that make a big difference, like this personalized TV guide. If you know your guests love traveling and history be sure to include picks such as the Travel Channel, National Geographic, and the History Channel to their personalized TV guide. They will notice your hospitality and thoughtfulness!

Fresh flowers and note cards placed on the desk completes this “hotel suite” feel and the mirror adds versatility, as this writing desk can now be used as a vanity for the guest while they are getting ready for the day. We love having one furniture piece that can be used in different ways.

To maximize space in the guest bathroom a pedestal sink was the perfect choice while glass shelves hold fluffy white towels. Who doesn’t love fluffy white towels?! Anything reminiscent of a luxury hotel is key in making your guests feel at home.

Beautiful soaps, lotions and luxurious toiletries are always a plus. We opted for a graphic navy and white striped shower curtain, which widens the feel of this smaller bathroom and creates a bold statement in an otherwise neutral space. A soft, cozy bath mat completes the luxury hotel feel.

The home office cleverly converts to a second guest room with this fold-out sofa. We brought in both navy and orange to flow with the guest bath and the rest of the home. Our two favorite things in this room would be the wall art and the lucite base desk lamp. Both the art and the lamp bring that touch of modern style that pairs well with the mid century modern wood desk and chair. Don’t be afraid to mix patterns, textures, and styles. Have fun with it!
