Mood Board Monday: a funky folk art dining room

Here's a dining room to go with the kitchen design I posted a few months ago. It's an eclectic, international mix of motifs from Mexico, Poland, and Sweden. And unlike the items I selected for the kitchen, these are not very expensive. The credenza features work by justhappiling.

Mood Board Monday: a goth baroque interior

Someone once asked me if I could design a room for a client who wanted everything all in black. I told him I would enjoy the challenge. This concept was fun. I felt like I was Morticia Addams picking out beautiful things for my creepy old mansion.

Mood Board Monday: a hair salon in shades of amber, copper, and gold

Another hair salon concept designed around an amazing chair. This one is reminiscent of the 1956 Eames Lounge Chair. I decided to continue the theme with warm shades of amber, copper, and gold throughout, with some playful leopard and cheetah prints and a fun graphic textile featuring ladies with beautiful Afros.
