ROOM OF THE WEEK 7.14

While I should be concentrating on client projects, the upcoming issue of Rue, and a million other things, my mind keeps wandering to my new apartment as I begin imagining all the possibilities for each room...

So, I thought I'd start sharing some of my inspirations as I pull them. This one just happens to be good enough to be the Room of the Week!

As Miss Maryam suggested, I think I'm going to have to adopt some gorgeous Moroccan decor for the space, and where I'd really love to see it all end up is the bedroom. While I won't be able to recreate a room as stunning as this, I can certainly pull in a few elements like a graphic but neutral-toned rug, at least one traditional inlay piece, a dramatic mirror, long full drapes and a chic little chandelier.

What I really love is the overall effect these rich pieces bring to the room - warmth and luxury balanced by moments of simplicity like the bed and unfussy drapery. What's your favorite element?

I would LOVE to stay in a room like this for a trip to San Fran or NY. Dying over that beautiful vintage mirror!

While I adore the chest and mirror, I think it's the rug that really brings the room together and amps up the glamor! Great find :)

I love this mix. The 3D print rug is great and I am obsessed with graphic prints. Although this chest of drawers and mirror in this image are very intricate, the bone and mother of pearl inlay pieces from Sang and Serena would look great here too.

There is not a corner of this room that does not hold beauty. Moroccan decor truly is inspiring. Travel is so important to the decorating process. There is so much to be seen!
