What I love most about this Newport Beach, California home is its beach vibe with a modern edge!

Glave and Holmes Architecture

"A Personal Sanctuary" was the design concept for this gorgeous master bedroom in last year's Richmond Symphony Designer House in Richmond, Virginia designed by Gary Inman and Catherine Stanley of Glavé & Holmes Architecture, photographed here by Kip Dawkins. The designers envisioned a very serene space where the parents could escape the pressures of their lives and reconnect, rejuvenate, and perhaps share a romantic evening. I loved learning that the beautiful wall color (Benjamin Moore ... View Post

Not only is this Washington, DC home beautiful, it's comfortable and livable too! Liza Holder of Homegrown Decor out of Bethesda, Maryland designed the home, and while mostly neutral, it was the lovely blue accents that had me at hello! What a great example of how to introduce blue hues into your home! I especially love the family room. The cozy sectional and swivel chairs make the perfect set up for conversation or watching a movie! Finish your tour of the home with more great photographs by ... View Post

Especially drooling over the wood flooring and reclaimed accents! The outdoor living area is just as impressive...go here to ... View Post

Dona Rosene Interiors

We're starting to plan our master bath facelift (the rose-colored whirlpool tub has got to go!) and seeing this beautiful bathroom by Dona Rosene Interiors is getting me excited! The Dallas, Texas interior designer transformed what was once a tiny bathroom into a serene spa-like space! I am in love with the spacious shower...it actually used to be a hall to the back porch with a door into the bathroom! Loving the wall color (Benjamin Moore CW-596 "Chesapeake Blue"), gorgeous tile and vanity from ... View Post

Jacob Talbot Fine Homebuilders

With a breathtaking view like that, people might line up to do dishes! Jacob Talbot Fine Homebuilders and Christopher Hall Architect made sure the amazing views of the Westport River were the focal point of this Massachusetts home, with windows galore and inviting outdoor areas.
