Benjamin Moore Paint Color of the Year 2023

October, 12 2022

Raspberry Blush 2008-30

Never a backdrop, Raspberry Blush is the definition of charismatic color. This unapologetic shade of red orange had us thinking: bold, bolder, boldest. This sentiment flows through the rest of the palette as we immerse ourselves in hues that make a statement. Inspired by an artist’s desire to communicate through color, shape, and sound, Color Trends 2023 was built to envelop you in vivacious color.

To commemorate this year’s selection, Benjamin Moore partnered with electro-funk duo Chromeo to underscore the upbeat and optimistic tone of the palette and the dynamic role color plays in self-expression—much like music.

Time to Spring for Floral Walls

May, 2 2022

Plain walls are out and floral wallpapers are thankfully in style again! The colors have been updated on traditional motifs and many of the patterns are modernized. I’ve always loved wallpaper in kitchens and bathrooms. You can even purchase a floral pattern printed on grass cloth now. Blues are always popular choices, Greens and Yellows are hot now. Shown below are Brunschwig & Fils Kashmiri in Leaf Alo, Bramalta Feodora Mini in Blue Fushia Yellow, Quadrille Sigourney Reverse in Jungle Green, Schumacher Marigold in Yellow, and Clarence House Arbre De Vie in Coral Lettuce.

Takeaway from Fall Seminars

October, 8 2021

I was fortunate to attend events hosted in Philadephia and Devon hosted by Kravet, Stark and Thibaut Designs & Anna French. After a couple of years only attending virtual events, it was so great to get out to see and touch fabric, wall covering, and carpet again.

Embroidered linens, unique trims, and crushed velvets are back with more modern colors & revived ethnic motifs. Industry leader Kravet and others are introducing deconstructed linens with sheer, large scale ethnic sheers, and velvets topped with metal. Kravet, Lee Jofa, Brunschwig & Fils, GP&J Baker, Scalamandre, Clarence House, Thibaut & Anna French are offering lighter coastal colors in order to make traditional patterns more transitional. These printed linens with fresh colors are fabulous. Flame stitch fm 1970s is back (bargello). Blues are always big and green is picking up. And of course modern patterns continue to reign.

My take: balancing the old with the new still creates an interesting interior. I’ve never been attracted to the matched set as I find it boring. Catalogue and internet shopping has opened people’s eyes to a variety of goods, however, an expert can help you achieve a unique, practical and beautiful living space.

Majolica Collecting

September, 28 2021

Majolica is a kind of earthenware made in imitation of Italian maiolica, especially in England during the 19th century. The lead glazes are bright and cheerful, lending themselves to the perfect accessory for residential interiors. Herbert Minton’s creative 3-dimensional designs contrasted the drab houseware widely used in middle-class homes at the time. The fact that it was also affordable made this earthenware all the more appealing. Other countries followed suit, however, the English majolica remains the most collectable.

Chintzware Displayed

September, 24 2021

Chintzware, or chintz pottery, describes chinaware and pottery covered with a dense, all-over pattern of flowers or, less often, other objects. It is a form of transferware where the pattern is applied by transfer printing as opposed to the more traditional method of painting by hand. The color and patterns are fabulous and add character to interior decor. Since these patterns are transferred rather than hand painted they were more affordable than other fine china. As you can see, the colors and patterns are vibrant and add a lot of interest to a display. Read this new guide to paystubs using the last link.

Before they carry out any work, interior designers meet clients to discuss their requirements. They look at the existing space, take measurements and discuss clients’ views on the look, feel and function of the area, you can see it in many buildings. It is during this meeting when designers recommend flooring materials, painting colors, styles and design for Entryway Doors, and so much more. Designers provide clients with a statement summarizing their requirements and then prepare and submit initial recommendations in the form of sketches or written proposals. When clients have approved their proposals, designers can move to the detailed design stage.
