IMG_3134Our favorite living room accessory brings our favorite wintertime luxury detail into play: fur. Much like a fur coat, a good chair is timeless. It brings both comfort and style to a room and will be anchor of relaxation while offering an edgy, classic, sense of style and luxury. The suede brown material exudes a Southwestern feel that will likely fit in with your other pieces, and the fur detailing provides a touch of unique elegance. Our suggestion to style this piece would be to try to use bold, eclectic accessories and warm colors that will compliment the tone and texture of this exquisite armchair and turn your living room into a subtly sophisticated sanctuary.

 

IMG_3154Our second favorite piece is sure to house your favorite holiday pastimes; a gorgeous armoire perfect for storing and displaying vintage wines and spirits. This neutral toned armoire is constructed of both Koa and Primavera woods and inlaid bone with hand scrimshawed detailed pattern. A beautiful bar cabinet sure to fit all your functional entertaining needs with its versatility but impress all your family and friends at your holiday gatherings. Because of its individuality and custom detailing, place this piece somewhere it’ll stand out. (Functionality tip: it’ll make your favorite wine more accessible that way too.)

Don’t forget to treat yourself for the holidays and invest in pieces that will make your house feel uniquely like your home. You’ll want to show off a little personality for the time of the year your family is most likely to get together. We go big at La Maison for the holidays so be sure to stop by our showroom for these two featured pieces and for many other pieces as well. Bring home something magical.

 

 

Luxurious Designing with Blue this Summer

FullSizeRender (7)The color blue is having a big moment in the world of interior design. From deep shades of indigo to pale icy blues, this is a color for the summer season! Being a color of such versatile shades and effects, blue is the perfect color to exude any feel in your home, whether you’re looking for calm and cozy or romantic and luxurious. We’re here to tell you how easy it is to incorporate any shade of this season’s favored color into any space. Like a glass of fine wine, blue can be full bodied and it works for masculine as well as feminine aesthetics to create luxurious designs in your home.

Calming as well electric, but always stylish, shades of blue mix well together and as a statement color in a room; it blends splendidly. Using blue as your base wall color, there are definitely things you should know to achieve your perfect look. The beauty of using this color is that it can create different effects in rooms depending both on the hue and the complimenting pieces. It works well with other warm and cool colors; burgundies, browns, warm yellows or cool greens. Darker hues of blue such as indigo and midnight blues come toward you, so they help make the room feel cozier and perhaps much more luxurious.Use warmer colors in a dining room or master bedroom; midnight blue reflects and absorbs light very well. To exude a truly luxurious and seductive experience, bathe your master bedroom, dining room or living room with candlelight. Cooler tones of blue are commonly seen in bathrooms or offices. Turquoise, cobalt and ice blue exude calmness as well, but in a different way that presents a focused feel, which is why it is so commonly used in offices. These hues have yellow tones in them so they back away making a space appear bigger. For a bathroom, where a crisp clean aesthetic is often desired and so these shades of blue are perfect to work with.

FullSizeRender (6)Wall paint isn’t the only way to bring color into your room, as you may already have guessed being a design lover. Using blue accent pieces are just as effective in creating a luxurious aesthetic for your home. Blue works of art, blue painted desks or end tables, pale blue curtains and loads of blue hydrangeas are a few gorgeous ideas that we love. Art is always a wonderful way to incorporate a theme into your home. Using abstract blue works of art above a television or as a headboard is a funky yet sophisticated way to use this color and artwork. Using ranges of blue in the same room with your furniture and walls should not be shied away from! Using the same color is not overwhelming unless you let it be. By adding hints of green to break up the shades of blue, you can add a warm note to your palette of restful blues.FullSizeRender (8)
