Summer Thornton Design

September 9, 2010








How posh and pretty darn cool is this Chicago penthouse designed by Summer Thornton Design?! I just love her philosophy: “To make the design process unpretentious, fun and fresh. Mixing high and low, rough and polished, classic and irreverent, her designs utilize contrast to engage the senses”. Check her portfolio, you’ll see exactly that. But before you go, scroll back up and look at the first image again. I died and went to heaven…

    I died and went to heaven with the first four pics…But I did truly love the wallpaper in the bedroom because it is the perfect backdrop to all that beautiful shades of blue.

    Do you happen to know the source for that amazing wallpaper in the bedroom designed by Summer Thorton? Looks like Designers Guild to me, but not sure ….
