    Proof wall to wall carpeting can be gorgeous

    Growing up in an old farmhouse, we always had hardwood floors, so it would be hard for me to go to carpet I think.  That being said, wall to wall carpet does have it’s advantages.  Nothing beats it’s coziness underfoot, and when you have an infant who spends his day on the floor, under butt.  Also, if you live in a rental, wall to wall carpeting might be what your stuck with.  So fear not, or rejoice – wall to wall carpeting can be just as gorgeous as hardwood floors.

    Wall to wall sisal carpet paired with the black walls looks so sophisticated!

    If I were to ever go the carpet route I would want something with a modern texture in a neutral shade.

    In this neutral bedroom the carpeting adds another layer of rich texture.

    Loving these grays with the pops of yellow.

    How dreamy and lush is this dressing room walk-in closet with diamond patterned carpet?

     

    Pretty pretty gold bamboo bed frame with a minimal geometric patterned carpet in gray keeps things crisp.

  • Artist spotlight: Michael Begenyi’s color rich, geometric paintings

    Artist spotlight: Michael Begenyi’s color rich, geometric paintings

    I’m really going to try and feature more artists this year. As a RISD illustration major painting and drawing are in my blood, and artwork can make a huge impact in your home! The artist I’m featuring today is Michael Begenyi, I think his work really lends itself to interiors and interior design, because of his focus on color combinations and geometry and line.

    Here is his artist’s statement: Michael C. Begenyi teaches middle school art in Western Pennsylvania and actively exhibits his work. His acrylic paintings reflect his interests in the geometric representation of the natural world and explorations in color theory. The relationship between math, science and art is part of what Michael has been exploring with his current work. Technical precision is important to Michael but it does not overwhelm the organic and creative inspiration for each painting. 
     

     This one (full:above), (detail:below), is my favorite.  It is titled koi pond. I think it does a fantastic job of capturing what a koi pond would look like broken down into geometric shapes.  The colors are really stunning as well.

    The paintings also remind me a lot of oragami, and even have titles like “Hummingbird,” “Frog,” and “Crane”

     The photo above gives you a better perspective of the size of some of the paintings
