A London lovely

Monday, July 30, 2012

Have you been watching the Olympics?? I am such a fan of all of it! Sports I have never watched before {bike racing, shooting and water polo}, I watch during the Olympics! I couldn't wait for the opening ceremonies and although it was very British and a little slow in spots, it had some great moments. And did you notice how many women were carrying their countries flag?! Even Iran!

And how great is it to watch the parents of the olympians watching their kids compete?? During a few of the events, they have cameras focused only on the parents of the child competing and it is so much fun to watch these incredibly invested, dedicated parents!! Having athletes of my own, I can't imagine how nerve wracking that must be. 

So, in honor of the host city, here is a beautiful London stone and stucco flat that Sarah Richardson gutted and then fully decorated.    

This lower level living room has fireplaces on each of its ends so dual sitting areas were created. It's hard to tell, but, soft buttery walls create the backdrop for the cherry and orange furniture and pillow palette.  

Because days can be very dreary in London, Sarah added color to every room of the 2500 sq ft home. The walls are soft green, yellow, light blue and pink. Very watery and pale, but just enough to illuminate the interior, even on the most overcast of days. 

 

 

 

 A very simple yet sophisticated kids room.

The kids bathroom wall is covered in beautiful pinwheel tiles in Ming green and Thassos marble. And the scale of the mirror is perfect over the gustavian dresser turned vanity.  

 What a lovely classic girls room with a soft lavender ceiling and pink toile duvet.

 Love the polka dot trim on the roman shade.
