New Client! Feminine Home Office.

I've been a busy little beaver for the past few weeks.  And it doesn't look like things are slowing down anytime soon.  I'm so fortunate to have the pleasure of working with a super cute young couple who recently moved (like 10 days ago!) to the area.  They have a pretty good idea of what they want, they just need some help consolidating their style.

The first room that we're going to tackle is the home office for Mrs. Client.  This picture shows the furniture that she had in her old apartment.  There really isn't any workspace, and it's a bit brown.

Don't worry, she didn't choose the valance.  The requirements for the space include a good sized desk, some storage cubbies, a fun patterned rug and a sleeper sofa.

Here's one of the mood boards that I came up with based around a blue trellis rug that she loves.

And here's another mood board with similar elements but using a pink sofa instead of beige.

Which one do you prefer?

John Robshaw inspired bedroom from World Market

I was in World Market the other day looking at Easter stuff when I couldn't help but be drawn to their bohemian inspired voile quilts.  They reminded me so much of the beautiful John Robshaw textiles that I saw in ABC Carpet & Home on my trip to New York in February.

Here's the bed that I saw in New York.

Isn't it yummy?  And I can imagine tres expensive.

I saw some other bohemian inspired accessories in World Market that got me thinking;  maybe I could recreate this look for a fraction of the price just using furniture & bedding from there.  So here's my mood board.

What do you think?  It's the first time I've used Olioboard and it took me forever.  But I think it's not a bad representation.  Obviously I wouldn't use all of the pillows and maybe change a few things, but for a bedroom for a teenager, I think this is pretty sweet.  And if you used everything on this board it would set you back $3500.  Which isn't bad for a whole room full of furniture and accessories.  The biggest expense is the bookcase at $799.  The bed is an amazing low price of only $299.99!  Now if only I knew of someone that has a teen/tween that would like me to design a room for them.  I'd have so much fun.  And amazingly, even though I wouldn't recommend buying all of your furniture from one store, this manages to still look collected.
