DC Design House bedroom
Posted on Thu, 15 May 2008 by KiM
Brocky Proxmire wrote us about the bedroom his mother, interior designer Kelley Proxmire, designed for the DC Design House. It’s stunning, so elegant and sophisticated, and had a special feature: “The big hit of the room was the now you watch it (#7) now you don’t (#8) TV. The TV is mounted on a swing arm behind the drapery panels. There is a slit in the drapery panel on the end so that swing arm may be extended several inches into the room. The size of TV (19″) is correct size for this distance of TV viewing from the bed.” Brilliant! Thanks Brocky (and Kelley!)
Election time in Australia
Posted on Wed, 7 Nov 2007 by midcenturyjo
Yes we’re in the middle of a protracted election campaign in Australia. Still 2 weeks until election day. I don’t want to show political bias so I thought I’d do a post that combined both major parties, the Liberals (right wing) blue and the Labour Party (left wing) red. So without further ado the red and blue room post!

And mustn’t forget the Greens who will probably hold the balance of power in the Senate.
Take the time to check out these super talented photographers’ sites. I’ll be singing their praises in detail soon.
More palest blue and sea mist green

It’s obvious I love these colours. Calming, serene, sophisticated,delicate and subtle. The last in this look at these ethereal hues.

More of those faded vintage blues and greens. Can’t get enough. Cool and elegant they are evocative of the aquamarine of the sea or the delicate tint of birds’ eggs and lend a sense of airiness to a room.

Sea foam green and palest blue. I love these faded vintage colours. So evocative. Calm, elegant, other worldly. They’re the perfect backdrop to boho modern, eclectic, vintage found style and even a more relaxed traditional, country or Swedish feel. Barely there blues and sea greens yum!
