Pottery Barn

Lovely images from Pottery Barn.

What I really like about this image, is the bold print and colors against the neutral background. I love how the furniture, window treatments, and walls are white and the colors are brought in through the accessories and fabrics. It’s absolutely fresh! Perfect for summer.

“What Separates Designers from Decorators”

    Hello!

    My name is Kristin and, if the blog name didn't give it away, I'm an interior designer. I'm also a self - proclaimed nerd, a grad student at SCAD-Atlanta, and a big fan of architecture, photography, travel, and iced chais. In a nutshell: I'm a lover of good design of all kinds.
