By Comparison...

What's new!
It’s always exciting to see the design publications “What’s New” page or the latest spread showcasing fantastic and imaginative interiors.  Talented designer’s place vintage and eclectic pieces in their projects all the time.  Visual research is a big part of how all of us find a look we can identify with.  I love to look at magazines and blogs and in doing so I have found that the595project has some wonderful examples of the “WOW” factor!  I’m featuring some great photo’s to show what I’ve found in magazines currently and how it ties to the595project.  Take a look at some of the rooms I found!


 The Power of a Chaise...
 




As shown in Elle Décor, the photo on the left shows the power of a chaise.  Elegant and comfortable but it has a strong design element that makes you want to indulge.  the595project chaise, below, is upholstered in fabulous leather and the designer is Adrian Pearsall from the 1960’s.  The walnut base is especially appealing.




















  Wall Sculptures...
  
I love seeing sculpture instead of paintings!  The impact of Curtis Jere is perfectly executed in the photo above as seen in Elle Décor.  The metal really adds a soothing restful component to the bedroom.  The photo below is Jere as well and the title is “Raindrops”.  Another wonderful find from the595project!
 
 Organic nature...
The organic nature of the root base table softens the crisp white chairs and light fixture shown on the left.  It is a fantastic addition to this dining room.  The root table base and slab top shown below is from the595project.  The base was found in Santa Fe, New Mexico and it’s perfect as an entry piece or a new top can be used for dining.
Grounded Color...



Color, color, color! The room above has it all as featured in Elle Décor.  The black cabinet grounds the explosion of color.  The photo on the left features matching Glen of California chests from the595project.  Very cool indeed.








  What's Hot...

 
I love looking at the “What’s Hot” page of Elle Décor.  June’s publication shows a low slung chair in leather.  The Fredric Weinberg chair on the left from the 1950’s is wildly comparable in look and style.  This chair is available at the595project.











  
Vintage Leather...

The photo to the right is a shot featured in Elle Décor of Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi's horse ranch in California.  The vintage leather sofa brings you in and makes the room inviting yet hip. The Erling Olsen sofa below has perfectly aged original leather and is very comfortable.  Available at the595project!
