Going Bold At Home

June 2010 Elle Decor

I love a bold interior.  Strong colors and textures are a large part of my own design philosophy.  This home featured in the June 2010 issue of Elle Decor shows how splashes of color, bold shapes and texture can work together to make a modern interior pop!

A venetian mirror, striped wall art and funky floor pillows fit together beautifully in an otherwise spare living room.  A few bold accents go a long way in adding character to this space.

Black and white goes from elegant to over-the-top amazing in this modern dining room.  Glass and metallic pieces are tempered by the dark wooden hutch and dining table.

This just might be my favorite bedroom ever.  African masks, chevron print pillows, and a suzani throw are drawn together through the bits of red and black that run through the color palette in this bedroom.

Check out the latest issue of Elle Decor for more beautiful spaces that are sure to wow.

  3. Lindsey Lou you can do it! All you need is some blue painter's tape, a couple of coats of high gloss black paint, and your dining room wall can be just as beautiful.

  8. Dylana, welcome! So happy you like what you see on AphroChic.

    The wall of masks really is beautifully done. I would love to have a collection like this in my own home. Of course that means I need to plan some trips to the Continent to pick up the real things.
