PIANO ROOMS

ROOMS THAT SING!!!

Happy Monday evening to you all.

I know its been while, but hopefully this post is well worth the wait.  My husband and I often talk about purchasing a piano for our home and how we would incorporate it into our current home design.  The conversation is generally centered around....do we replace our rarely used formal dining table/chairs with a lovely piano and cozy seating? Or perhaps we should carve out a swanky piano space with banquette seating in our basement?

Although we have yet to purchase a piano, I decided to browse the world wide web for a little inspiration. Since we have not determined the perfect space to house the piano, I was very pleased to discover (and now share with all of you special peeps) design worthy spaces that have been styled in a functional and fabulous way!!!

The diversity of the photo collection is across the board....formal, informal, white, black, wood, shiny, old, new, living rooms, dining rooms....the possibilities are truly endless.  I literally LOVE of each and every single photo.

Up first....I love the formal and modern look of the first, few photos!! The monochromatic color schemes are elegant and sophisticated.

GREEN INTERIORS

Good evening lovelies and gentleman (FRED)!!!

Hope your Monday was as positively inspiring as today's color crush.... GREEN.  I must admit I do not really care for the color green as a stand alone accent; however I am drawn to the pairing green and pink in a beautiful way...SHOUT OUT TO THE beautiful AKA sisters who fabulously represent these colors!!!

I was recently inspired by the lighting fixtures in the below picture.  The green chairs in contrast to the wall, table, and buffet offer multi layers that compliment each perfectly.  The modern blue painting was the "icing" on the cake signifying a well appointed room.

Since I was drawn to the aforementioned photo, I immediately became inquisitive the green potential and begin a search for green interiors, green walls, and velvet sofas.  As I progressed through the various options, I came across the INSPIRATION of the day...dark walls and green upholstered chairs...G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!!! and fabulous floors to boot!!!
