Pale shades of peach, yellow, green and blue and a statement sofa in Josef Frank fabric create such a fun, cozy atmosphere in Utah-based designer and stylist Meta Coleman‘s adorable home. Embracing colour and pattern and vintage and owning it.
Built in 1924, the historic preservation society defines this house as French Eclectic – a common style following WWI. Soldiers returning home were inspired to build Normandy style houses with steep pitched roofs, casement windows, French doors, and a combination of timber and stucco surfaces. On the interior, these houses often took on a Tudor or Spanish influence – sometimes a mixture of both. Our role was to remodel kitchen and baths, create a guest suite on the ground floor, refresh the house throughout, and then furnish it comfortably for a casual family of three. For all of the permanent features we took our cues from the existing architecture, and then layered on an eclectic mix of furnishings well-suited to our client’s lifestyles and reflective of their travels and interests.

A local friend Liane of WISEMAN + CROMWELL has been knocking out really fabulous interior design projects lately and I figured it was about time I give her a shoutout. Her love of vintage may even surpass mine so I thought it suitable to feature her project that was led by vintage finds. A girl after my own heart!
