0 Bedroom Inspiration

So, I think I may have hinted before that we were having some issues with our apartment.  Basically we have been having a pest control issue for months at this point.  Our little, um...friends, who we lovingly named Rat Ghost and Vern are quite persistent and smart (unlike the management of our complex).  After patiently, but frustratingly, dealing with this problem we have to move out.  So...we have been on a mad hunt to find a new apartment.  

Given this, you can probably understand why I needed some nice calming inspiration today...

1 Neon Yellow Air Plant Pods

These Neon Yellow Air Plant Pods from Bird and Feather are just awesome.  

0 Lou Mora and Sarah Yates Sneak Peek from Design Sponge

I included this image from Lou Mora and Sarah Yates's lovely Los Angeles home in my pool house wish list post, but their home is too good not to share more.  As you know I am a big fan of homes that have black walls, a mix of clean mid century pieces mixed with warm cozier items, and feel really happy without having too much stuff.  This home totally fits the bill.

0 Browne Street House

This isn't exactly a pool house, more of a house with a pool.  But imagine it on a smaller scale; I think it would work perfectly.  Also, that island is genius.

1 A Pool House in Vermont

This pool house feels a lot warmer and more woodsy than my imaginary pool house is in my head.  But I like it. Love that black kitchen and all the great entertaining space.

1 A Black Wall and Some Turquoise and Yellow...

My pool house would like to have a black wall, a comfy reading chair, and yellow and turquoise pops of color.

0 A Yellow Door?

Does my hypothetical pool house want to have a yellow door?  I think yes.


Check on the rest of this house here.  It's good.

1 A View from My Bedroom

I slept in this morning, which felt good, and have been hanging out in bed.  Things have been a little slow around here for a while partially because I have been sick for a while (more than two months- ridiculous I know).  After lots of doctors visits and many sluggish days I think I'm getting better. (Nothing serious by the way, we think, just bad allergies that tend to turn into sinus infections/bronchitis too often).  


So, I shot these images with my iphone yesterday and this morning (and posted on Instagram), and I've gotten a lot of questions about where things are from.  I thought I would do a quick credit round up of the things I can remember...

0 Malibu Beach Home

This home in Malibu feels like it could also be at home in the desert. I love...well everything.  The wood, black, and white, contrasting with the open lightness, and the furnishing...perfection.

Gae Aulenti Locus Solus armchair, by Poltronova, 1963, yellow enameled tubular frame with sling seat in original gray and white striped upholstery....um ok!!
