Friday's Fab Finds...

My FAB FIND for this week actually came from the May issue of House Beautiful and the work of interior designer Jonathan Adler. Titled "Every House Needs Pizazz" Adler uses layers of pattern and color to make a splash in fashion design Liz Lange's home in New York

This shot of the dining room is my absolute FAVORITE. The black and white graphic on the area rug sets the stage for the pop of color above. The turquoise on the drapes is carried throughout the house but Adler introduces a splash of yellow lacquered on his own Chippendale Chairs.


The turquoise, black and white palette are carried into the living room layering in additional color texture (notice the nail heads on Regent armchair) I'm not sure if you can see it but Adler painted the hardwood floors white - a daring move but am AMAZING result - the white floor and walls create a backdrop for the rest of the items to pop off of.


The white crisp kitchen (from ikea) is offset with a great green and white pattern on the Cherner Bar stools. Open shelving creates the opportunity to neatly display the colored dishware - form and function!
