Summer should be a time to slow down and enjoy the sunshine. But let's be honest, it often feels like the busiest time of the year — and that's why we're loving bright and calming spaces. The simplicity of a visually undemanding space, seems to take things off the mind, instead of adding to it. But don’t get us wrong, simple isn’t code for boring. There are many ways to make a light and airy room as interesting as it is easy going. We recently came across this My Domaine tour of Ali Fedotowsky’s home and it’s the perfect example of light and stylish. What a bright and airy home lacks in color it makes up for in textures. A variety of materials - from woods to woven - will keep the eye engaged but not overly busy. Add natural interest with eye-catching plants and greenery. They fit right in without demanding a spotlight. Keep color stories low-key, We’re not saying keep color out - just be picky and keep it to one or two color families per room. Go ahead and create a little drama. Neutral statement pieces add interest without interrupting the natural serenity of the space.
