White Hot Style Goes Gray…
Written by Clayton Gray Home
We love this Robert Rodriguez Bias Tank, and how our Wendy Lamp and our Costello Side Table mimic this style, beautifully! Arteriors Home Wendy Lamp($235) and Costello Side Table($820), www.claytongrayhome.com.
Let’s face it, summer is here in sunny Florida and it has us wanting to cool things off with the color white. Does this shade bore you?
Before you turn your nose up to dressing or decorating with lack of color, keep this in mind…Lack of color in decorating can be just as dramatic as any bold hue—on the walls, with furniture, even for your floors—white brightens a room, draws the eye outwards, creating the illusion of a larger space, and highlights everything around it.
Most importantly, white can lend itself to any taste or style, traditional, ultra-modern, or somewhere in between. Here’s a tip: Warm whites instantly create a mood of comfort and warmth in a room, as well as helps soften harsh lines, while bright whites give modern, minimalist spaces that extra-sharp zing.
This Crimped Alabaster Blouse from Anthropologie is so beautifully reflected in the Moroccan styles of both our Punched Metal Hanging Light, $299 by Wunderley and our Ives Mirror, $2,500. (to see these and all other items visit www.claytongrayhome.com)
As we’ve been flipping through our favorite magazines we have made notes of many of our favorite styles that reflect the design of many of our favorite pieces from CGH.
We love white!
