Studied


Alice Lane Home

Cause sometimes a room can be livable and an art piece.

Seriously, though, these rooms are intriguing me right now. They've got this artsy, calm, orderly thing going on.

Love that Joseph Hoffman chair. I know where to find one in the Fledermaus style if anyone's looking. Or you can get a set in a similar style to the one above here.

Cute little stool. The Serena and Lily store has so many cute things!

These colors and styles make me think of the fabulous Eliel Saarinen house up at Cranbrook that my Mom and I went to while she was in town. I've been before, but it does not get old. The style is unlike anything I had seen and continues to be an inspiration.

The light fixtures, the textiles. All of it is amazing.

Is there possibly a dark velvet theme going on here? Maybe.

Not sure what designer was involved in the pic above, but it reminds me a lot of Lars Bolander.

And, finally, one of my all time favorites. I think this was the first room I came across in this understated style that really struck me.

I hope you find some inspiration in these!

Shed a little light on things

Living room by Studio Reed Design

Hello, all! I wanted to share another item that is currently listed on Chairish! I also wanted to give some examples of how this piece could fit in any room. Today, I'm featuring this gorgeous (and massive!) vintage drip glaze lamp:

Isn't that glaze amazing?!

Although this piece is mid-century, I don't think it necessarily has to be used in that setting. You could go all out with vintage pieces - barkcloth curtains and shag carpets - or you could take a different approach....

I think it would work in all sorts of settings. Against warm, rusty peach walls, like in Ms. Lauder's living room.

Or in grand and glamorous entryway, mixed with classic and modern elements.

I love the idea of the lamp in a lovely eclectic setting like the one above. So pretty!

As you can tell, I like the idea of mixing it with other shades of blue and green! I think that combination - along with some warm woods and textural accessories - would keep the lamp, and the room, looking timeless. Here is how I might put it together with other pieces:

Wall Covering - Lamp - Table - Sofa - Tapestry Pillows - Velvet Pillow - Chair - Lantern - Curtains

It would be neat to do some moody artwork as well. I love the selection at Anewall on Etsy. For the room above, I might do something like this:


Or you could go more modern and graphic and do an overscale print like this one:


There are so many ways to blend an item you love with your own things and your own style. You don't ever have to let the age or providence or style of a piece dictate how you want your space to look and feel. Although this lamp may not be what you're looking for, I hope this post delivers some inspiration for your own home!
