SEE THIS HOUSE: WHERE COLOR AND PATTERN PLAY A STARRING ROLE!

dining room in katie ridde's home with apple green wall with prints of birds, an indigo wall console table, upholstered purple chairs with gold trim, a discoball chandelier and a dark wood table with two Chinese garden pots holding purple hydrangeas

Found this home in talented  New York designer Katie Ridder's portfolio...

This home in the South features an eclectic mix of colors, patterns and textures...unique, interesting and cheerful come to mind when I look at these images.  The disco ball like chandelier in the dining room along with the apple green lacquered walls are the biggest design surprises...but they all seem to work in the space.

I like this design...full of surprises indeed.

Library in Katie Ridder's home with a bold brown and cream graphic rug, rattan blinds, a plaid armchair across a Chinoisserie desk, blue walls with encasement windows covered in floor length floral curtains
The bold graphic rug, the floral drapes, rattan blinds, plaid arm chair and the Chinoisserie desk make the library home office into a visually interesting space. (above)

And then there is the dining room! Apple green walls, purple chairs, a graphic rug and a disco ball mirrored pendant light above make for a stylishly bold play on a traditional dining space. (above)

What do you think of the colors and patterns in this home?  Is there a room that works for you?  I actually really love the bird prints against the green wall in the dining room...too bold of a color for me to use in my house...but I would certainly love to spend a wonderful evening in that dining room!

Happy Columbus Day!  Happy Monday!

WINNING TWINS - MAKING TWO BEDS BETTER THAN ONE!

Love these twin bedrooms. Perfect for children (boy, girl or even toddler soon to be tot) and/or guests. Oh how I wish I even had an extra room to decorate...for kids and guests alike.

Think these rooms are fab because they all have a bit of whimsy to them and some bold use of color. All show much design can matter in a kid's or guest room.

From fun spindle headboards, to colorful drapes and canopies, to grass cloth covered walls, to a bright Marimekko wallpaper (see last photo), to colorful bedding...these rooms pack twice the design punch of any old single bed bedroom!

My favorite is the first room with the great yellow headboards...forget the guests or children, I might just make that one my own!

Happy Wednesday! (I have the day off from work...yipppeeee)
