What starts inspiration for me is my desire to decorate my home. I have a serious love of monochromatic color schemes (with a secret desire to impound my life with splashes of color). Ever since my (2year) visit in Southern Germany, I spent an after noon shopping in Oberamergau. I found a boutique (if you will) that had treasures of old and new but what I was welcomed to as I entered the store is what has forever stuck with me. I only wished I had had my camera to photograph this lasting impression. It was black, black leather tufted sofas against black walls with gold lamps and black shades all these different textures of black made this an amazing centerpiece to this beautiful shop I had discovered. You had to look carefully to catch all that was hidden beneath her arrangements, this room was delicate and masculine all at the same time. Tone on tone of black was an exquisite site. So now I hunger for those same black walls.. but it has evolved into a softer shade of charcoal. Here are some rooms that seem to grasp the fun I am imagining.
My home has twenty foot ceilings and off white drapes in a open space plan. So to add a touch of pizzazz I think it can work! I have been debating it too long..
"do not put off until tomorrow what you can do today!"
Thanks for visiting.
