Bright Colour needs a Healthy Dose of White

My readers are the best!  I have been emailing back and forth with Stu Stiller for a long time now.  He was kind enough to send me a quote about men and their love of wood to include in this post on Open Letter to my Lover on Decorating.  Yesterday he sent me a link to this amazing townhouse in TriBeCa designed by Ghislaine Vinas. It’s definitely Colour me Happy!

Here’s what I want you to notice when you are looking at these images.  I have been talking about fresh, happy colours as the new trend for months now.  But this kind of clean colour looks the best with a healthy dose of white (not necessarily all over the walls) as this townhouse shows!

Stu (above) finally had the opportunity to meet in person at the CMG Conference two weeks ago.  He is the Director of Design & Merchandising at Mayer Fabrics and he’s always sending me colourful links to read!

Have a Happy Weekend!
