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.

 We started the weekend off with the most perfect weather day here in Atlanta.  Let me set the stage for you...70 degree weather, blue skies, sunshine, and breezy......wouldn't, couldn't complain because the weather was in deed P-E-R-F-E-C-T.  I guess all good things must come to an end because the freshness of yesterday's past has been completely transformed into skies of grey of today.  Determined not to let the change of the weather dampened the mood, I found sunshine in the above photo.

Although, I have no design elements within my home that the represents the color yellow,  I was inspired by the photo above which ultimately led me to the collection below.

The photo represents a well balanced room.  The yellow wallpaper and curtains create the perfect backdrop.  The grey sofa and abstract rug anchors the space, while the oversized photography ties to the two worlds together and prevent the walls from looking too busy.  I love it!

Opposite from the above picture, the photo below creates a warm grey setting with a punch of yellow in the window dressings and the dining room chairs.  (The chandelier is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G).

Happy, Happy Thursday Everybody!!!!

Can you tell I am R-E-A-D-Y for the weekend?  No real plans other than NOT to work the 9 to 5.

I was going through some old photos that I had saved some years ago and came across a color inspiration that made me smile.  It's certainly not my go to color, but I can certainly appreciate its cool and bold effect.   As you can see, coral is a diverse color that marries well with black and white, chocolate, formal, informal, and dining spaces.

The below photo is my favorite.  The coral walls is the perfect backdrop for dark sofa and pattern mix.  PERFECTION at its best.
