M.J. Lanphier
Mon, 24 Aug 2009Matthew J. Lanphier designs spaces that are confident, contemporary and comfortable. Graphic elements and bold accent colours that flow with ease. Mid-century cool mixes with Hollywood Regency glam. Love the energy, and I'm so pleased M.J. emailed us about his work so we could share it with all of you.

Delightful and romantic poster bed!
I'm dying already. I love this work - I really do. Only one thing stood out for me as no can do and that was the table with 4 disparate chairs at the dining room table. 4 similar are fine. But none the less, I could dig these rooms personally and the dynamic energy they give off. You could feel that certain something just from viewing the pics, I can only imagine what they are like in person. I am getting tingles.
Very pleasing geometry and shapes throughout.
Ooh! Ahh! LOVE his use of color! Yum!
too many different ideas being crammed into each room
These are great! I really like the 6th one down. So calm and chic.
I love that kitchen with the pale blue tile, lovely!
This is great! I love the carpet on the 4th last picture!

Wonderful use of colour.
"confident, contemporary, and comfortable"-- so aptly put! It's so difficult unifying a smattering of great furniture. This particular designer gave me some great ideas for my home! Thanks.
I love the work... but looking all the photos made me realize that they all have one thing in common...the blanket effect..
Does anyone know what kind of house plant that is in the 5th photo down? The room with the yellowish/green walls. I have always loved those but I don't know what they are!
I wish I knew Amanda - love the oversized leaves on it.
Amazing work, thanks for sharing! I especially like how the designer plays with scale. It can be tricky, but he pulls it off!
Ok, I think I figured it out. That plant must be a "fiddle leaf ficus"...

OH! Great job researching that Amanda! I'm taking note of the name for future reference. :) Thanks!

all best,
