A peaceful, gorgeous home that's elegant and casual

I am really crushing on this living/room foyer right now.  It's so light and airy, but still sophisticated.  During hectic times, the no-fuss approach seen in this space is really grounding.  The space is by Alison Royer of the Belmont Design Group.  All photography by Ashlee Raubach.

Drooling over this foyer!

...and those chairs

Had this vase been a hard edge crystal, it would add to the formal feeling of the space.  I like the organic, rustic glass vase - it adds a more relaxed feel.

Have a wonderful weekend!!

Brighten up your Monday - some uplifting, cheerful rooms

It's hard to feel cheerful with all that's going on in the country and the world, so you may have to make an extra effort to be grateful for the gifts in our lives, I'm hoping these rooms put a smile on your face and remind you of the most important part of any home: family.

The colors here are so gorgeous.

possibly my dream kitchen!

great way to keep your fireplace during summer

A quirky canopy bed.

Elegant and sophisticated interiors with a fun modern twist

The lines of this room are clean and classic, but the wallpaper and bright green also make it fresh.

I like symmetry in design as long as the objects used are fun and unstuffy.

The colors in the rooms above and below are so lush...if I lived in a colder climate I would definitely use them.

Acrylic chairs and pops of fuchsia make a traditional dining table fun.

Go into the light - rooms that is....

there's little more beautiful to me than bright white rooms.
