Exterior Paint Selection for Modern Home
One of the things I love most about Interior Design is the variety of work that comes my way. Every job is a little different and my title encompasses quite a bit.

Case in point a recent client project I was lucky to work on- choosing exterior paint colors for a new construction home in Australia.

Pink Bathroom Plans
I know this can be a hotly debated subject- whether to rip out a dated 40's, 50's, 60's bathroom or not. There is a whole website devoted to Saving Pink Bathrooms for goodness sake! Are we losing a part of our design history that we will one day regret? Will there be future Nicole Curtis's trying to bring these 50's bathrooms back to their former glory?
Who's to say? I for one am not sure. And I am a big proponent of keeping things in their original state in homes. But I also understand homeowner's need to make their space functional for their needs.
Case in point- my whole reason for the above musings. My friend's current pink bathroom:

This one is my favorite:

It reminds me of my Architecture professor always talking about juxtaposition.
This Frank Lloyd Wright one is funny too:

I pulled many all nighters in Design School. Unfortunately they all included school work only.
