English Country Design should have rich, warm colors
Cozy Seating - Tufted chesterfields and overstuffed armchairs—especially when covered in plush pillows in intricate patterns—impart a sense of warmth.
Inspired Design: Palm Beach Look
Palm Beach design is elegant, light-filled, and especially happy. Interiors here have a sunny optimism, even on a cloudy day. Nothing defines Palm Beach style more than its bold and playful palette. Bright and colorful hues offer a truly tropical twist and draw inspiration from the cheerful locale. Think turquoise, lime green, sunshine yellow, coral, and flamingo pink. Fearless mixing of colors is also a hallmark of this style.
Inspired Look: Mix Up Things with Old and New
Bohemian, livable, comfortable — English country meets California beach life. I just like rooms that make you feel good when you walk into them. So often there will be beautiful homes but when you walk into them, they’re stagnant, with no energy. So it’s about creating the energy, lifestyle and knowing how to live.
Layer patterns and colors! Don't be afraid to mix styles! Things seemingly incompatible, say, a commode from the 17th Century with a Mid-Century Modern lamp will work as long as the pieces are excellent and beautifully designed. Live with the thing that mean something to you!
