Good morning....so how do you like my "new look"? I love my new blog and want to thank Shari over at littlebluedeer (www.littlebluedeer.com).....she is fantastic and I highly recommend her to anyone considering a "blog makeover". I am off to the New York gift show, which I always look forward to! And, of course will be sure to take my camera and snap away at anything that is inspirational and worth sharing here. Hopefully I will have a lot to show you tomorrow!
I have long admired the work of Timothy Corrigan and think he is most definitely one of the most talented and gifted designers out there, hence the reason Architectural Digest named him one of the 100 most talented designers in the world! The post I did yesterday on the two incredible French chateaus that he restored, speaks for themselves. I am going to divide this post into two parts because I have a lot of pictures to share and its too many for one day (don't want to overwhelm the senses).
So for today I am featuring front entry and living room pictures. Tomorrow we will check out his dining rooms and bedrooms. I find his work so inspirational and I can look at these pictures over and over and not get tired of them. I love how timeless his rooms feel, that they have an "old new look" where not everything has to be perfect and sparkly...there is a lot of character to each of these rooms. His rooms are the kind of rooms that keep you wanting to dissect and study every little detail, absorb the beauty and make it your own. I would love to hear what you think and of course, if you have a favorite.....
Fabulous foyer...love how he arranged the console table, lantern and that mirror is gorgeous!
How beautiful is the paneling color here....so soothing to the eye, and that rug!
Fabulous barrel ceiling in a grand hallway
Beautiful center hall table in a luxurious wood paneled foyer
This must be a foyer in a grand country home...with all the antlers, so French!
Muted blues in an opulent front hall
Love the rich warm walnut colored woods used here
A beautiful study with lots of rich colors, love that blue velvet bench...love the art on the
library wall
Soft ivories and blues create a quiet muted feel here
I love this ultra long sofa, beautiful in blue!
No this is not a hotel, its a residence in the middle east
Understated elegance at its best
Absolutely love this living room
Fabulous french doors in a huge living room...notice all the tables he used
Love the blue and white accents in this creamy palette
A opulent view from Timothy's own living room
Beautiful paneling make a cozy backdrop to this elegant room
Love the rich colors here....those walls are to die for!
I am not generally a huge red fan but its done beautifully here with a toned down red...
A peek into a grand salon in Paris
Soft apricot and greens in an otherwise neutral living room (he uses this combination a lot)
Another view of Timothy's own living room
Rich blues look so elegant here, love all the art
A cheery room with lots of green..interesting mix of styles here
Look at that gorgeous scalloped velvet tufted ottoman
What do you think of the lattice work on the walls here?
Another view of the "latticewalled" living room
An elegant neutral living room high in the sky
A fabulous French salon
Beautiful center table in an opulent room
Blue and white always adds the perfect finishing touch
Hope you will visit tomorrow as I will feature some spectacular dining rooms and bedrooms by this very talented designer. Hope you have an enchanting day! Let me know if you had a favorite room.....for me it would be a toss up between Timothy's own living room, the living room that I wrote "I absolutely love" with all the books, and the foyer with the antlers. All beautiful!
