Neutral Houston Home

I came across this beautiful, crisp and clean home of Houston designer, Pamela Pierce of Pierce Design & Associates. Her house evokes the clean look of french house, minimal color and lots of texture through light woods in the flooring and furniture and bringing in natural elements through plants, flowers, antlers, etc! How do you feel about the "all white" look?

Chic Beach House

Hello world, I am back to reality!!! I was out of the country for 10 days on vacation! I set up my July 4th post ahead of time and scheduled it to post in my absence, so I am glad that worked!!!

As I get back into the swing of things, I wanted to share a few awesome photos I came across today on House Beautiful of his 1,650 sf weekend home in California by designers, Erin Martin and Kim Dempster. Check out all the great nautical accents!

Buoy lights and linen french chairs

Old nautical chain coffee table, and large clam shell accent!

Vintage pull down map purchased on ebay is used to hide the tv

Master bedroom with high ceilings

Rope knot curtains and blue slag glass on coffee tables look like seaglass

Large root table painted white acts as make shift vanity

Nautical bunk bed space with porthole mirror

Nautical inspired bathroom with brass fixtures, lacquered striped walls

Outdoor entertaining and dining area

The living room fireplace was inspired by the work of sculptor Louise Nevelson. It's composed of scraps of wood from the project and various woodworkers' shops.

Exterior of the house perched upon a wild flower covered hill

What a view!

Labor Day Whites

In honor of Labor Day and many saying goodbye to their favorite whites (especially my white jeans). I wanted to feature some all white interiors! Do you find all white interiors clean and crisp, or just too stark and void of color? What rooms do you like white for the best?

All white seating area and loving the wall of art

When one farmhouse white porcelain sink, won't do...add another!

Love the white wood plank flooring

Solid white nursery

All white bathrooms look so clean from Brooks & Falotico

I think solid white bedrooms are peaceful and serene

Love this vintage building in its historic white glory

All the great assortment of white dishes

Great Neutral Paint Colors

One of the hardest things for me is getting the perfect paint color. I look at the samples in all different lights. Then as soon as its mixed, I think the color is different on top of the can. But I know, you must let it dry first before you can make any decisions. When amazing designers kindly announce their tried and true tested colors....I am all ears! Here are some popular colors from Phoebe Howard's blog.
