When designing around a special piece of art, it's more than just pulling colors from the art itself into the room. Find the mood of the art ... in this case, it spoke to me of classic, soft, and transitional. The mood of the art is reflected in the rug and enhanced by the thought of the gemstone Opal. Soft blush pink and grey add calm to the room. Also, the shapes within the art are reflected in the lamps, the pendant lighting, and the Ammonite (fossil shell). Wearing opal jewelry, a silk blouse in blush pink, and soft suede shoes, speak decisively about the mood of this room.
Until next time ...
