Wind....

 Via La Dolce Vita

I apologize for my absence!.. While I was away, i really got a true sense of what personal whirl wind feels like which is what inspired me to talk about "wind" in design. Not the atmospheric displacement of air, as much as creating a strong emotion and movement into a space. I find this particularly hard to do, and much has to be considered in order to acheive that sense of great mouvement in a room:).. I think it definitely begins with how to arrange artwork together, and how the shape of furnishing can echo the movement existing in the artwork. A vortex can be created around artwork, objects d'arts, accessories, colours, and layout! There also needs to be height and width... Its another spacial dimention of design that i find fun to work with:)

Raining....

Today, its raining.....I love rain.. I love hearing rainfall when I fall asleep. I love the sensation of being rained on, I love how cleaning it is, I love smelling it, and I love how clean the air is after it has rained. So this is my inspiration for this blog entry. If you want to recreate that atmospheric moody room
, here are a few favourites: "Down Pipe" by Farrow and Ball, "Passive" by Sherwin Williams,"Carry on" by Para, "Mistral" and "Seraph" by C2, "Kid Glove" by Pratt and Lambert, "Oxford gray" 2128-40 by Benjamin Moore...
