Modern Can Be Colorful As Seen In This Washington D.C. Home

I love it when I come across a home that is colorful, modern, and timeless at the same time.  Nowadays, when everything seems to be in black and white, it’s refreshing to see that there are still designers who dare to take a chance.  I love neutrals because they can’t go wrong; however, a colorful home is always uplifting.  Architect Carmel Greer created a home that is as personalized as it’s inviting.  Pink living room with contrasting upholstery, who doesn’t like pink? She kept the bathrooms and kitchen neutral and fresh while sprinkled the open spaces with modern and colorful art.

Often Designers and Architects use their own home as a laboratory by implementing design choices that clients usually reject.  Carmel told ED that she put in her own house things that clients haven’t really loved.  I’m sure that many clients, after seeing the result will change their minds.
