Home Design Light

Want a cold atmosphere, select white light. Want a warm, choose yellow. In fact choosing the lighting for the home, not as simple as that, you know.
The presumption was actually not wrong. Determination of “warm” or “cold” is strongly influenced by various factors. One of them is a style of architecture and interior design of a house or room.
Traditionally dominated by the minimalist style of cool colors, the most widely used white. Coupled with a versatile arrangement orderly, neat and clean, not surprisingly minimalist room would generate an atmosphere of “cold”. If it was like, before deciding to apply a light yellow or white, ask yourself, what is desired.
If the home owner decided he wanted to strengthen the atmosphere of ‘cold’, so please use the bright white lights. Conversely, if the owner of the house wanted to “fight” with the warmth of a cold atmosphere, means suitable to apply with a light yellowish light.
Determine the lighting, Many factors, especially the needs and tastes of home owners, which affects the choice of lighting design, light color, until the placement of lights. So do not get stuck belief, yes.

Modern Home Design Light

This is modern house called Sosnowski designed by Chen + Suchart Studio in Tempe, Arizona. Located on the outskirts of Tempe’s urban center, the home exudes an industrial aesthetic. A pronounced steel frame constructed from I-beams is the skeleton for the upper volume, which sits upon a concrete block base. The façade of the upper level is composed of thoughtfully placed windows and naturally weathered corrugated steel panels. The interior pairs concrete floors, exposed ductwork, and industrial light fixtures to create a loft-like atmosphere. Despite its industrial pretense, the Sosnowski Residence remains habitable and inviting thanks to a central gathering space on the ground level that merges the living, dining, and kitchen areas into a single space that fully opens to the surrounding city and desert.

There's a lot to love about the use of white for interior design. White is not only the absence of color. White created the image of elegance, brightness, and expansive. It also symbolizes purity, goodness and light becomes. White clearly far from boring, but it does involve a number of interior design techniques to fuse with modern contemporary look. Here are some hints on how to use white as part of your home decor without transmitting vibration hospital-like sterile.
First of all, although we seem to always think of white as one particular shade, the truth is that choosing the right color white is not so, well, black and white. There are actually many different tones of white and color that will match the white tone will be very different. For example, blue and white will look jarring on a red sofa.

Modern Interior Design | Modern Furniture is Indispensable

Furniture in fashion has been a part of the human life since the development of non-nomadic cultures. Evidence of furniture survives from the Neolithic Period and later in antiquity in the form of paintings, such as the wall Murals discovered at Pompeii; sculpture and examples have been excavated in Egypt and found in tombs in Ghiordes, in modern day Turkey.

Modern furniture derives from Modernism, which was a cultural movement. Before this, furniture was typically very ornate and it’s valued was based on the amount of time it took to be built. Everything changed in the early 20th century, when furniture design began to focus on functional, yet chic, designs.

Modern furniture with several kinds is moving and inspiring. I am particularly interested in commercial furniture.The clean lines, bold shapes and colors are designed to create balance and harmony. They’re an eclectic mix of modern furniture from the ever popular modern classic masterpieces to the latest cutting edge designs.

Buying commercial furniture for offices can be quite a daunting task and it can difficult to know what will look nice and what will work the best. A great thing about browsing online is that the furniture is often shown dressed or in amongst a room of furniture. This can really help you make decisions about what to buy. Looking at a piece of furniture in a shop without the right backdrop can require a lot more imagination and it is not uncommon for people to get their furniture office and realize it is not right, too small, looks terrible.

All in all, furniture can be a product of design and is considered a form of decorative art. In addition to furniture’s functional role, it can serve a symbolic or religious purpose. Domestic furniture works to create, in conjunction with furnishings such as lighting and clocks, comfortable and convenient interior spaces. Furniture can be made from many materials, including metal, plastic, and wood. Furniture can be made using a variety of woodworking joints which often reflect the local culture. Meanwhile, whatever type of furniture you are looking for, search online for the best choices and prices.

Interior Design Furniture

Most of the modern interior designers are moving away from the good, old classic look, which is bulky and heavy, and moving to cleaner looking techniques for interior furniture design. They are also moving to new materials when choosing to design new furniture. This furniture may not be as comfortable as the older styles of furniture from past generations, but they provide many appealing options to today’s consumer including choices of styles, color, material, and textures that are sure to go with any décor in any room, whether it is to decorate the inside an office building or a home. This gives the consumer the ability to decide which furniture to go for based on her taste, giving her more artistic freedom to pick and choose the designs that she would like.

As technology and architecture made a change in the types of materials that are now available, design concepts have also made drastic changes in concept over the last hundred years. For instance, designers used cleaner lines for furniture; they moved forward to match the straight, simplistic lines of architecture. A zigzag chair, for example, which is shaped like a “Z”, can give any room a unique look. Furniture is also now produced in mass quantities instead of piece by piece. This makes furniture available for all customers.

As time moved forward, many designers also moved forward with bold colors. They started using primaries as the main colors in their designs. The drastic change varied greatly from the past antique furniture, which was merely stained wood, or possibly painted white. The early 1900s modern interior designs furniture, which changed in color, now changed color schemes in many places worldwide, introducing colorful and bold looks into the interior design industry.

Steel is now being used in the interior design industry as well, as technology was developed that allowed for tubular steel rather than solid pieces of steel to be used in the manufacture of furniture. This allowed for lighter but still durable furniture to be made. This type of steel was hollow in the center, providing strength to it, while still being a lightweight solution for modern furniture. Steel started being used in different types of furniture including tables, chairs, dressers, and beds. It gave a great look to all types of furniture. Metal and leather were both used together in order to create comfortable furniture that any buyer would want.

Let It Snow . . .

. . . just not anymore right now. Here in the Nashville/Franklin area we got about 2 inches of snow yesterday which was, of course, enough for schools to be cancelled. I usually don't mind snow days . . . our kids love the snow, and it's kind of fun to sit around in our pajamas until the urge to go play outside kicks in. However, this is the week before Christmas break. This is go-time. The show. Mama has got to finish up her shopping. 

So, please Mother Nature or Father Winter or whoever is listening, please hold off on anymore frozen precipitation until at least December 18 (after which my kids are out anyway). Thank you. 

Sincerely,

Scrooge

Freedom of Choice

I knew it would happen sooner rather than later as my daughter has always had strong opinions. The time has come . . . she has outgrown her pink room. I wouldn't go so far as to say she hates pink, but it's not a color she would EVER pick out now as a mature 8-and-a-half-year-old. I always thought pink and green was timeless. Guess I was wrong.

I realize this looks like a lot of pink, but it's very subtle really. The walls are a very pale shade called Confection by Martha Stewart (when she had paint at Sherwin Williams years ago). It's just too "girly-girl" according to Meg who has her finger on the pulse of all things cool and tween (although I hate that word).

Her duvets are white linen with ruffles down the center that I got on sale at Pottery Barn about 7 years ago. I still love the bedding - so simple. Meg said it's not "comfy" enough (it's not as soft as cotton) and it lacks pizazz. That random green ball looking-thing on the wall is garland she used to literally deck her wall. She also hung lollipop ornaments from her chandelier, and that's a little Santa with bottle brush trees on her bedside table.

Since Meg's favorite color is green (and not paired with pink), we decided we'll go with a green and aqua/pale turquoise color scheme. Our guest room down the hall is green, so she decided a very pale aqua blue for the walls would work for her.

I was inspired by the color palette of this living room by Ashley Whittaker in House Beautiful.

And while the blue in this bedroom from House Beautiful is not the shade we're going for, I love the overall blue/green theme and feel of the room. Of course, we're keeping her iron twin beds and just changing bedding, fabric, paint and accessories. I love upholstered headboards, but I have neither the budget nor the patience for changing her beds right now.

I was playing around on Olioboard last night and pulled some inspiration pieces. Since Meg doesn't like anything too "frou frou," I had a hard time finding simple bedding that would appeal to both of us. I think the Pottery Barn Teen Suite Organic duvet in Mint will work quite nicely. I haven't looked for a paint color yet, but that's next on my list. I pulled some pillows from Hable Construction, fabric from Premier, the Maskros pendant light from IKEA and some posters I found through Haven and Home on Etsy that add some whimsy.

Of course, this is just a jumping off point, but I think Meg is on board with these choices which is half the battle . . . okay, the total battle. Her new bedding is a big part of her Christmas present this year, so I've got to get it ordered ASAP.

So what do you think? Is this look "big girl" enough?

It's Beginning to Look . . .

a little like Christmas around here. Now that the tree is done, I've been decking the halls a little more. This weekend we finally took a photo for the old Christmas card (yes, I'm a bit behind schedule). I've ordered the cards online, now I just have to wait for their arrival and then disperse them post haste. For those of you on my Christmas card list look away now, as I am about to share the photo that won the coveted spot:

Yes, my children are shoeless, but this is the best we could do. Honestly, getting two kids and two dogs to cooperate long enough for a photo shoot where we got maybe two useable photos about sent me over the edge. Oh, by the way, we have a cat but there was no way he was getting anywhere near this bunch.

We also got in the Christmas spirit this past weekend with some holiday traditions. The kids visited Santa at the mall . . . 

Such natural smiles.

And Matt and I watched this . . . 

We LOVE Love Actually. Every year, we have to watch it to kick off the Christmas season. If you haven't seen it (which I'm sure you have), you must. This is definitely not a kid-friendly film however, so the children were watching Ramona and Beezus in another room. 

And here are some little bits of Christmas I've sprinkled around the house so far.

I just dragged these out of a box and onto the dining room table. Not really styled or cohesive.

I've had these old-fashioned snowmen for years. I move them around the house every year, but put them on the entry chest for now. I like to stick Christmas cards in my mirror so it's the first thing I see upon entering. Makes me happy.

The mantel needs more sprucing. This is just some roping I bought at Trader Joe's with some other random things and our stockings of course. I bought these wool felt Hable Construction stockings from Garnet Hill a couple of years ago. Love them.

And last but not least, some yummy treats I found at Whole Foods the other night. I know people make these but I'm too lazy. They are delicious!

Throw these in a bowl, and you're ready to entertain!

How about you? Have you gotten in the Christmas spirit yet?

Quick Makeover

Several weeks ago I did a quick little makeover on my grandmother's sideboard which I inherited years ago.

It's not in the best shape, and for years I had considered painting it until I saw a little makeover that Sherry at Design Indulgence did using liming wax. I was intrigued. You must check out her makeover here.

Liming wax is not easy to come by . . .  I had to order it online. But I found it to be extremely easy to use - you literally just wipe it on. Luckily, the finish on the sideboard was pretty worn so it soaked up the wax. If you have a well-sealed piece some sanding might be involved. After a little bit of tweaking (at first my daughter said it looked like it should be in a haunted house), I got the finish about right. I had to live with it a while, but it's grown on me and now I think I like it. Here's the finished product:

There's a little bit of glare from my flash but you get the idea. It's actually pretty subtle.

I've seen a lot of "limed" pieces lately . . .

So what do you think? Is liming for you?
