Pared back chic

Sometimes a girl can overindulge. Sometimes she just can't help herself as she dives into a design portfolio that is just image after image of beautiful spaces. If gorgeous rooms had calories I'd be a goner. Thank God interior designer Stephen Knollenberg creates rooms that are elegant in their simplicity and chic in their pared back balance between old and new. There is something calm and sophisticated, light and yet welcoming about these rooms. So beautifully curated. Sigh ....

I love his work and have some of these same images saved.
Ladies I just wanted to say thank you to you both. The depth and breadth of what you cover in this blog is amazing. Having a blog of my own for a while now, I know what effort goes into it, so I really appreciate what you guys do. So, thanks!

I love this look! I'm not a big accessories person and I always feel bad for how sparse things look, but I guess just having a few accessories arranged well works!

I agree with you - exquisitely curated. I love the simple and yet elegant decor. Pitch perfect!

Ahhh. I want a window like the one in the first and last photos! That room with the red painting really intrigues me, but the bottom left stole my heart.
Thank you for sharing these!
