Well, this is a true sneak peek if you’re reading this blog before 9 a.m. last week our lovely editor-in-chief, Suzanne Dimma, talked patterns from our January 2011 problem for a taping of CityLine, as well as you can catch the episode on air today! It’s my task to take Suzanne’s vision as well as make it a truth on set, which in this situation was recreating two of our stylish spaces for 2011. I’ll show you exactly how we caught one of them below.
This space was Suzanne’s very first pick to recreate — which likewise occurs to be our cover shot from the January 2011 issue! This style is by my designer crush, Brad Ford, as well as we called it “The new Modern”. a few of my favourite aspects from this space include the traditional contemporary pieces, those gorgeous velvet pillows, as well as all of the unique sculptural bits that are scattered around the room.
So, this is where my difficulty comes in. I hit the shops to begin sourcing. very first stop, Elte, where I discovered the sofa that would be the primary focus on the set, together with a extremely Brad Ford-esque side chair in a distressed leather.
This multi-headed fixture was tucked into the corner of a back room. Elte is likewise the very best source for those stunning velvet pillows!
Next up, Mjolk for a fur skin rug — obviously this is reindeer. The West Virginian in me believed it was beautiful!
I was having the worst time trying to discover the perfect coffee table … up until I stopped at Hollace Cluny as well as stumbled upon this contemporary beauty.
Not even five feet away was this gorgeous piece of pottery to add that artisanal look to the space.
A area is never totally completed without some artwork, so a quick stop at Art Interiors solved that issue! I discovered a few of Joshua Jensen-Nagle’s prints that I understood would work completely for this set.
The last stop of the day was at one of my favourite shops, West Elm. I chosen up all the missing pieces there to surface off the space, like a tree stump side table as well as a few pieces from their new pottery line by Shane Powers. This line is definitely worth inspecting out before it offers out!
Finally, I made a quick contact us to my buddies at Ikea to borrow one of their chunky sisal rugs to ground the whole space.
Voila! The final product. I believe it came together nicely, don’t you think? Be sure to tune into CityLine today at 9 a.m. or catch it when it airs once again later in the afternoon at 2 p.m. I put together one more entire room, too, however you’ll have to watch the show to see!
