Lauren Liess

Posted on Thu, 5 Dec 2013 by KiM

Simplicity. Comfort. Nature. Ease. Relaxed Luxury. These words define Lauren Liess’ Virginia based design firm. I typically gravitate towards more modern design but wow, I’d be quite happy in any of these spaces. They’re so full of beautiful colours and textures and patterns, and most importantly they are really cozy and practical.

Surprise!

Marta Laudani and Marco Romanelli are architects from Italy whose work cannot be taken too seriously. They obviously have a thing for spaces that adapt to the owners needs and moods. One minute – a white box, the next – floral artwork. White kitchen cabinets are WAY FUNNER on the inside. And I love the map of Italy divided into multiple frames.

My front door

Posted on Wed, 4 Mar 2009 by KiM

This is just a quick post to document one of the many MANY things I need to do something about in my house. It’s the front door. I have to say it’s a pretty nifty looking door, and although the inspector I had in here when I was buying the house said I should replace it with a better door (in terms of being better insulated), I cannot bring myself to do that. You don’t find doors like this at Home Depot.

 

One thing I have to keep in mind is the fact that this door opens right into the living room. So whatever I do to it will have to work with the space. The little windows in the door are unfortunately not glass but plastic, and yellow. Not sure if I should work with that or replace them/cover them up somehow. I found a very inspirational photo here a while back, and can’t get it out of my head. How freaking cute is this door?!

I’d love to hear your ideas on what I could do with this blast from the past door.
