Idea Book: Contemporary Country

New York designer S.R. Gambrel transforms country style into contemporary by pushing traditional style.  This idea book features some of his wonderful spaces of interesting arrangements and architectural details.  The window-ed landing is very interesting as is the window-ed basin sink.  Country style is popular, but doesn't have to feel dated.  I hope you get inspired and see some decorating ideas to try.  Look for his work in an upcoming issue of House and Garden magazine.

Want to share some new furniture introductions with you.  These contemporary traditional style sofas and occasional chairs by C. R.

Color Trends: Contemporary Color Palette - New York Apartment

This apartment's color palette reminds me of a bowl of fruit still life painting.  The colors are true, bold in contrast, and unapologetic.  Each room has its own color, style, and attitude.  Sometimes by being consistently different you can create uniformity. 

I personally love the avocado green entry and the gray, blue, and green sitting room.  Design Tip:  Wallpapering bookshelves is a simple solution for filling sparse shelves.

Designer Christina Murphy created this fresh and contemporary palette for a New York prewar style apartment.  "Punches of color keep a room feeling youthful and engaging," says Murphy. - House Beautiful
