Through the years of writing about design, I have learned so much about my own taste. Each season I have new and different looks that I would classify as "my own style", yet with every emerging new year I look back upon past articles and see styles that I fall in love with all over again. The bedroom of Olatz Schnabel and her artist Husband Julian has captured my heart all over again...

turquoise walls + pops of red + wooden secretary + black and white photo collection =

domestic bliss

for the rest of this beautiful home...

I have never seen colored walls done through a home like this one. The blue walls in this bedroom are absolute perfection. I have used this color in a bedroom before and the client still raves to this day. The color is topped off with a gorgeous exotic rug. It's so important to use modern rugs like these, they are so on trend right now. I also adore the kitchen, the mossy green is fantastic especially next to the black and white tile. Genius.

Black and white checkered tile in the bath is also killer with the copper fixtures. Such eccentric lighting as they have thrown in is key in this kind of home. Beautiful.
