I'm knee deep in some wonderful projects right now. I just got the "ok" on a color palette and design plan from a client and I thought it'd be fun to share it with you. This color palette was taken straight from real life.. a glass of red wine:
Seriously.. isn't red wine beautiful? Even if you aren't a big drinker (like me), you can't deny it's pretty.... the way it catches the light and changes colors.
The inspired color palette:
Colors such as magenta, plum, grape.. but there will be no mention of "burgundy". Burgundy is still blacklisted along with "mauve" and "hunter green". ;)
The starting off point for this color palette is one of my all time favorite fabrics from Lee Jofa:
We all remember this image from Domino:
Christina Murphy has a beautiful "wine" room in her portfolio:

You have to do the same post but with Rose, and then White wine!!! Great post!
ReplyDeleteI love the color choices, bold and lovely. But now you have me having a bit of a Domino nostalgia moment. Sigh. xoxo
ReplyDeleteMe too on the Domino nostalgia moment!
ReplyDeleteI love the richness in wall of that last image.
Stunning! The fabric is beeeuutiful!
ReplyDeleteThe high gloss wall is STUNNING. Please say you're doing that!
ReplyDeletehold the phone BRYN! i heard it told that that there magenta hicks is discontinued!
ReplyDeleteHmm, perhaps it is! It's still on the Lee Jofa website (which usually means it's not. Hmm) I just called in a memo with my showroom, so I guess I'll find out shortly :)
ReplyDeleteIf it IS disco'd then I'll get it here: http://www.etsy.com/listing/75297317/lee-jofa-groundworks-la-fiorentina-20
I just checked (in case anyone else is reading). It's backordered but available in Sept. Not disco'd.. yay! :)
ReplyDeleteYou can NEVER go wrong with la Fiorentina! I just did a post on it last week...it's my favorite!!
ReplyDeleteI gotta check out your post ASAP. I always feel a bit guilty and unoriginal that I love La Fiorentina soo much. Need validation :)
ReplyDeleteThe high gloss wine walls are awesome! Makes me want a room just like this. So warm!
ReplyDeleteThose colors are so unbelievably rich. Can't wait to see what your plan is.
ReplyDeletehaha...burgundy & hunter green - one of my fav color combos of the early '90s...hilarious! :)
ReplyDeleteThese colors are wonderful. Those features of the home and how the color blends perfectly are just amazing. In this age of remodeling and renovations applying this color scheme to any home could prove beneficial. Asking the help and opinion of professionals will also be invaluable. Thank you for sharing!
