The statement piece

Every room should have a piece that makes an impact and it doesn’t necessarily need to be a piece of furniture, it could also be a sculpture. Like in these living areas below, the statement is brought into the room by big busts. They also add drama to the room.

Feminine and Masculine

The use of pink, gilded mirror combined with brown leather chairs and over sized rustic cocktail table make this room suitable for a man and a woman coexist in harmony.

Thanks to MFAMB for reminding me that this house belongs to Ann Duong.

A glamorous mess

A glamorous life implies many things, one main element is owning good quality, personal accessories such as, chic sunglasses, exclusive business cards cases, good pens and so on. Louis Vuitton has never been on top of my list but I love how these ads of Sofia Coppola’s designs for Louis Vuitton portray how even messy and disorganized glamorous things look fabulous.

Women Portraits

I remember when I saw Sofia Coppola’s home (above) at House and Garden. I can’t believe one of my favorite magazines is not around anymore. Anyhow, I still dream about this room. The sculptural table, the zebra rug, the vintage chair and of course the Elizabeth Peyton painting call my name, I mean isn’t this room timeless? Don’t you still love it? women portraits can certainly bring that vintage touch into a room.
