Yesterday, we got a wonderful dose of colour from our friend, Miles Redd. Today, we’re going take it down a notch with this beautiful mostly white space. The sprinkling of the brown tones from the floor and furniture is a lovely contrast, definitely not jarring. Isn’t...

Understated elegance.
The facade of this home is simple yet statuesque. I love how the vines have grown up on the sides and that shade provided from the trees looks so welcoming. I love the light coming and and the fact that they left the windows undressed. The neutral walls also is a...
