A MODERN & EARTHY HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE

Hi again friends - If you are the master of procrastination like me, it's highly likely that you have not started shopping for the holidays. Lucky for me, I am living halfway across the world from loved ones, so I have a major excuse for sending gifts a bit late. Let's be real, I am the QUEEN of late gifting. It is something I will be working on for the rest of time - eek! On the contrary, maybe you have done the shopping for others, but you need a spark of an idea as to what to ask for yourself. Hell, maybe you even got a holiday work bonus, and it is time to finally treat yo self! We could even go as far as calling this my own personal holiday wishlist. Whatever the shopping excuse might be, I pulled together a chic little gift guide of all the things I would love to see from good ole Santa Clause this year. It's modern and earthy (my faves), and it's all so satisfyingly good. Hope you enjoy!

A MODERN & EARTHY HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE

ELIZABETH ROBERTS ARCHITECTS

Hi friends! A little behind on my blogging game as I just started a new job, but better late than never I suppose! Today, I am shining some spotlight on one of my all time favorite sources of inspiration, Elizabeth Roberts Architects. There are too many good projects to count coming from this architecture and interior design firm. I could go on and on about the perfection and beauty of the Calderone Townhouse (which if you are not following @eyeswoon on Instagram, you’re missing out on so much goodness).  

Today, I bring you two other favorites coming from ERA, the Union Square Loft and the Cobble Hill Townhouse.  Elizabeth Roberts and the team are known for respecting the history of a building and perfectly blending the old with modern newness. With these two projects, they do just that which brings life and warmth into each newly renovated space. Each space is clean and minimal but also perfectly thought out with the use of artful contemporary elements as statement and focal pieces. The use of natural yet bold materials mixed with contrasting hardware or the perfect pop of earth-toned color reiterates one of ERA’s best design skills, which is the art of balance. The perfectly curated furniture and home accessory pieces are the cherry on top of these masterfully made cakes. My eyes could stare at each of these spaces for hours studying every little detail - the marriage of the millwork, marble (that Calacatta Viola in the Union Square Loft is to die for), custom cabinetry, open shelving, custom built bookshelf, brick fireplace, I could continue all day here. It is Scandinavian beauty perfectly integrated with modern cool. So without further adieu, please enjoy photos of two of the best designed spaces that, in my eyes, will forever be on the top design charts.
