Kevin McManamon, a designer from Michigan, began his firm in 1986 and has been designing residences, night clubs, restaurants, offices…you name it he’s done it. His style is traditional mixed with modern here and there. A red laquered steel canopy bed, art featuring cows (??), animal print pillows – all perfectly pulled together to make beautiful spaces.

Spectacular spaces and extraordinary attention to natural light. This is a sample of the portfolio of photographer Justin Bernhaut.

I love this bathroom so much (I’ve posted it before). I was taken then by it’s ethereal hue. Kerry Joyce is the interior designer and architect whose muted colour palette caught my eye. The rest of his portfolio is just as restrained and elegant, mellow and casual. Sun faded washes of colour draw your attention. His style is traditional to modern and all things in between. I can just feel the warm dappled sun on my skin and smell the relaxed crispness of the rooms.

Oh my GAWD do I ever love Markham Roberts (I mean his interior design skills). Such gorgeous rich wall colours and wallpapers, chic furniture, fabrics and accessories. All done to perfection. Yep – I’m in love.

Preston Lee is a young Californian interior designer with a big future. Clean modern lines with just enough references to retro and deco. Fun with plenty of ideas to steal, Preston’s portfolio may be on the small size but he’ll be one to watch. Some great fire place ideas here.
