Closed Doors

How often do you wonder what's happening behind those closed doors?

 

Usually you'll never know and that's why it's good to have an imagination that can run free.  Just make it be whatever you want it to be.

From Dark to Light

The old world charm and character of these spaces makes me feel all cozy inside.  The darkness on the inside subtly glows as the soft rays filter in through the hazy gray skies. The windows stand tall, and because of this, there is no wrong!

 

 

I'm a sucker for big windows, what can I say.  As much as I like feeling all cozy inside I also like feeling fresh and clean.  The glistening light billows in from the gray skies as these white interiors shine brightly.  Aww so fresh...and this puts me at ease.

Now which of these styles are more me?  Ask me today and ask me tomorrow and I'm sure my answer will never be the same.  Give me one here and one there and let's just call it a day!

Goodnight everyone!

Giorgio Possenti

I'm just going to let your jaw drop as you take a look at the interior photography of Giorgio Possenti.   I sit here dreaming of mountains and snow as the first days of summer hit Southern California...again.  I feel the warmth and the character within each one of these spaces even though the colors are neutral and the elements are raw.

the double sided sofa is genius!  This is something I've been seeing so much of lately and loving them more and more.

to just lie here under the moonlight and the sparkly skies with my favorite book and glass of wine.

the sheepskin rugs make wood bench look so cozy.

 

it's like there's a grizzly bear on the bed.

love how the modern light fixture contrasts with raw concrete.

ummm yeah...everyone come over for a dinner party pretty please!

For the Love of Books

As the rain slithers down to the ground and fall drifts into the air, I dream of being cuddled up reading books of fantasy and make believe. Set me in a room wrapped in books, wrap me up in a blanket, feed me some hot chocolate and I'll see you in a few....weeks or months that is.

Oh Really ...

office you think you can get away with being this amazing!  I'm about to quit my job and just come wait outside until Jay Jeffers hires me.  I mean really how fabulous would it be to walk into this space everyday and work?  I wouldn't mind at all...AT ALL!

creative space...let the ideas flow.

client meetings...ok just relax! 

waiting room...sit and just be inspired.

library...come on!

and finally my office...yeah ok!

Modern Industrial Workspaces

So last weekend felt like the first days of summer.  And this weekend, well, the first days of fall.  The skies were gray, the breeze was cool, and the smell of wood burning stoves drifted through the air.  I missed out on the hayrack rides and the trip to the apple orchard, but I did enjoy myself a pumpkin spice latte...I guess that will do. 

These offices make me want to put on a nice warm wool sweater, the perfectly worn pair of jeans, and a pair of moccasins.  Once I'm dressed I might as well go chop some wood for that wood burning stove, right?!  These spaces make me feel all cozy inside even though the elements are raw.  The wood just brings in such warmth to the modern industrial spaces.  Wishing you all a wonderful work week! 

Leave your ego at the door.

And who wouldn't love to have this workspace?

The black floor, chalkboard, and raw wood...drool.

I would use this everyday.

My reading corner pretty please.

That lamp is incredible!

ummm yeah!  i'll come work for you!

Happy Friday!

Looks like I'm getting into a habit of posting only on Fridays, huh?!  I woke up on Monday, said I'm going to dive into this week head first, and honestly I feel like I just came up for a breath of air!  Wow! 

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!  This brought a big smile to my face and reminded me of the days that were no work and all play!  Happy Days.
