Beautiful built-ins

I've lived in quite a few old houses and one thing I love about them are the built-in features. Bookcases, desks, window seats - they add so much charm and personality. How about you? What's your feeling on built-ins?

A dreamy day bed/window seat - oh the hours I could spend there

serene office - my desk is never that clean though - as I use it to work on... :)

I love this room. The curtains hung lower ads a lot of dimension to the room I think...

Swoon-worthy dining rooms from Domino

I just called Conde Nast to switch my Domino subscription. "The last issue you should receive is the March issue," said the operator. How sad! It also spurred me to continue my mad-hunt to gather all the images I can from the Domino website. Today I'm focusing on dining rooms. Being a huge advocate of food consumption - I spend quite a lot of time in them. These are particularly lovely. In which would you take your dinner?


This one's for my little sister, a lover of all things red.


I really like the contrast of the dark wood table with the white chairs.

this wouldn't technically count as eating dinner on the couch...

I'm so jealous of that sunny window seat.

The fabric used for the drapes and the cushions is Pottery Barn's Serafina, available by the yard.

I like all the cubbies on the wall in this room.

Perhaps my favorite dining room of them all...

Never fails to disappoint: Canadian House and Home

Oh Canadian House and Home, how I wish a year subscription shipped to the states weren't so pricey. I often argue with myself though that it would be worth it. I often check them out at the bookstore but it's just not the same as having it in my home, and the magazine is consistently gorgeous.

I really like the picture ledge on the wall.

Ideas and Inspiration, Designer Portfolios!

Thought I'd help us all over hump day with my favorite content- designer (and interior photographer) portfolios! I hope you find something to inspire you, and excite you for the weekend - spent in your home, not the office.

Oh don't get me started on those floors...



Spacious retro kitchen


A library in a hallway - notice all the window seats.



Love the pasta canisters, and the cabinet hardware




The botanical prints above the couch really make this room for me
