One Room Challenge: Week Two

Filed Under > Ideas & Inspiration

ORC-2 

Week two of the One Room Challenge finds me carrying out a plan I actually set in motion over a year ago, the hanging of a gallery wall.  I’ve been collecting pieces, both new and old, for awhile now knowing they’d eventually find a home on the 16 x 12 foot wall a top my stairs.  This space will be the first time I’ve actually put together a large gallery wall, but I’ve been gathering inspiration, designer opinions and Pins for years now and through all of my research I’ve come to the conclusion that gallery walls fall into two distinct areas; completely uniform or a crazy-eclectic-collected mess.  I’m going for the later, a mix of prints, photographs, original commissions all in different frames, mixed with a few 3-d objects and even a little bit of lighting.  I’ve begun the process of blue taping everything out, but am not quite ready to begin, so in the interim I thought I’d share a glimpse into the art that’s inspiring my wall.  Truly, MKR

One Room Challenge: Week Four

Hanging rattan chair

Last week, you saw One Room Challenge progress in the form of my loft bar. This week, I’ve got nothing.  Between all of my recent travel, wrapping up a few major design client’s projects, and prepping for WOM The Brick & Mortar and our new office at ADAC, I haven’t even had a moment to hang a picture or style a coffee table.  And while I may not have any progress pictures to share, I have made a few behind-the-scene strides.  I dropped the sofa at the upholsterer to get reupholstered in a hand-painted loop brushstroke fabric from Steve McKenzies and I pulled the trigger on all of the lighting (here, here and here), plus I snagged a rug.  But since decisions were made late, and I haven’t received shipping notifications yet, I’ll be racing against the clock to finish this project on time (shocker).  But if there’s anyone who likes a race, it’s me, so I say, fire up the music and let’s go.  I only have an entire gallery wall to hang, lighting to install, a rug to lay down, furniture to arrange, a coffee table to style, and quaint-cozy-hanging-chair-reading nook to create.  Easy-breezy.  What personal design dilemmas have you run into lately?  Truly, MKR

One Room Challenge…Week 3

One Room Challenge, Week 3 || Waiting On Martha

Last week I talked about procrastination and this week its like the gates are opening and angels are singing as my room begins to come together (dramatic much?!).  And while I can’t share any new pictures I thought you might like to see my design board.  Besides my signature mix of traditional and modern pieces the room is finally becoming more functional for my growing team with the addition of a team table and I’m also softening up the space with a lot less black and a lot more white.  Plus how amazing is my Smythson Blue brush stroke lamp!?  Till next week my Loves!  Truly, MKR
