Nothing makes gold sparkle and shine more than it does when pitted against black… and the result is always elegant and rich…

LIVING SPACES

The living space can set the tone for an entire home. We here at SOM try to disregard the notion that living spaces should be traditional in look and feel. Instead, why not create an interesting space by incorporating a stand out piece of upholstery, a bold colored rug or an unexpected furniture arrangement? Take a cue from the images below and transform your own living space!

ORANGE AND GREEN

Color combo of the moment: orange and green. We have a long - standing love affair with a good orange so it's not surprising we're attracted to this smart looking pair. Deep and dark, saturated and bright or soft and light, orange and green can pull it off any which way. The images below can prove it!

UNDER FOOT

We spend a lot of time focusing on the furniture, lighting and accessories when designing a room, but just as important is what's under foot. From natural fibers to cowhide to wool, rugs are a great way to add warmth, texture, and even color to a room. And contrary to popular belief, purchasing a rug doesn't have to break the bank. Check out our great finds and inspiration below!

BLUE HUES

Good Old Blue, it's tried and true! We've been noticing the soothing color in a lot of graphic prints lately -- especially in indigo and navy. It's easy to work with the darker hues because they're more flexible and can be paired with so many colors. Use blue to pull off a casual enviroment or go for a more refined look, like the white spaces below. And it goes right into the closet -- who doesn't look good in blue?!?

SHED A LITTLE LIGHT

Have you noticed it, too? Pretty clusters of lights are on trend, and are particularly divine when displayed in dimly lit spaces like some of the ones shown below. What a bright idea!

...to a wonderful week! Since we are headed to Belgium, we thought it oh-so appropriate to share the post that Katie Rosenfeld ran a few months ago.
