I have had an enthusiastic response to my posts about color, so I thought I would continue with this black, white and red powder bath. It is definitely a bold statement for a small space, especially since the ceiling has been covered in a graphic patterned wallpaper.
Bright, crisp patterned blue and white wallpaper and a stunning blue glass mirror create a rich environment for this bath. The white sink and Opus las set anchor the room.

We have been talking about a gentle shift in bath design for about a year. It started with the launch of our new Architectonics palette (expanded to 123 colors) and has continued to the installation of more active and colorful stones.
Beautiful beige and gray vein cut travertine with a mid tone wood cabinet. This is a classic and timeless look. It is both warm and sophisticated.

Over and over, I have noticed recently that a home’s kitchen floor is often the same material that is used throughout the rest of the house. However, with so many wonderful options for the kitchen, I suggest that you take the time to look beyond the obvious.
A few images of fabrics, furniture and objects that make up the permanent collection at the Cooper Hewitt.

On a recent day in New York, I carved out time for what I call “sightseeing.” The Cooper Hewitt always has remarkable new exhibits, and when there, l love to revisit the decorative arts collections of the Hewitt sisters. If you are tech inclined, this is is definitely the place to go. Admittedly, I take the more conventional (old-fashioned) approach to gallery exhibits, which is to read the descriptions and take photos as opposed to trying to manipulate and play with the screens.
