Decorating for pretty

ashlina kaposta September 21, 2015

Last week I spoke at New York Design Center's What's New, What's Next conference. It was such a honor to speak alongside some of our industry's most talented designers. We all pretty much agreed that the new trends are yet to be seen, with the developments in technology we will be seeing things that have never been done before. I get so excited for things like that. 

What we did talk about, was how there seems to be a return of "pretty decorating". Pretty can mean different things to different people so I wanted to share with you all my version of what pretty looks like. . .

When I think of pretty, I think soft, sensual and pleasing to the eye. Pinks and anything Parisian constitutes pretty to me. I also love pretty pops of yellow. Against the light grey wall, its a subtle pairing that just delights the senses. 

A sweet birds & butterfly wallpaper in a bathroom is just so pretty. 

Pretty can also be modern and a mix of vintage too. Soft colors keep things pretty as well as curves, crystals and moldings of all sorts. 

I've always been a fan of the monochromatic look and this living room with a tufted sofa and jarred sea shells is totally pretty.

Dynamic Duo: bold colors + dramatic artwork

ashlina kaposta September 1, 2015

I am working on something with one of my favorite stores in Houston, High Fashion Home. I've filled my apartment with their glamorous things before, see here. Every time I visit the showroom, I am most impressed with the bold, dramatic and oversized artwork paired with bursts of color. It's so good. 

Of course black and white abstract art is typically my first choice but all of this color is really beautiful too. If you have a mix of the right colors, I can really get on board with large color abstract pieces. I love how it can allow you to use bright pink pieces, like these photos above. 

I also love photography. Unique prints are my favorite. You can find very cool pieces at These Fine Walls or Citizen Altelier. The thing about it, don't go small, go as big as possible. That's what makes artwork like this look so glam. 

I've been stalking Marilyn Minter for a while now. I love her glitter eye art. She has so many fantastic pieces. REALLY want one for my home.
