The Way We Live:

This week's  The Way We Live  features a home I've always admired.  This traditional house is decorated with an eclectic mix of new and old furniture pieces, colorful and very appealing art and detailed window treatments.   Each room displays its individuality while remaining cohesive with the rest of the home.  Featured below are the living room, dining room and foyer.  Take a look:

Thank you CT for sharing your very special home with my readers.

 

 

 

The Way We Live: An Artist's Home

The home I'm about to share with you exudes warmth and coziness.  Its many vignettes, vintage finds and detailed sketches make it a visual treat.   An artist at heart and a stylist by trade, the owner created a space that is both free spirited and sophisticated.  A lovely haven for the entire family.  Take a look:

Many thanks to JR from Katchen for inviting Cocoon Home Blog into her home and share it with its readers.

The Way We Live: A Design Savvy Client

The home I'm about to share with you belongs to a client that became a good friend.  This project exemplifies well the way Cocoon Home Design works with a client.    Tackling a brand new construction, the design savvy client needed help creating a foundation for her overall aesthetic.  With paint color choices, key furniture pieces and layouts, CHD was able to help this client attain her ultimate vision.  With an occasional call to suggest an accessory, a painting, or a rug, this client's home evolved and matured without losing track of her preferred sense of style.  Take a look at this elegantly toned, well organized and family friendly home.

Take a look at the Room Inspiration that inspired this client to purchase the vases.

The Way We Live: A Home Close To Home

The home I'm about to share with you is very dear to me for many reasons.  First and foremost, it's my mother-in law's place and also my children's favorite place to visit.  It offers a sense of familiarity, security and comfort.  Second, it's the way it's put together.   Without any fear of what may be considered right or wrong, Babik makes her home a total expression of who she is and the experiences she's made of.  Combining classic design, ethnic influences and her very own personal style makes this home truly a feast for one's eyes.  Welcome to The Way We Live:

The way we live should be an extension of ourselves:  a compilation of past experiences and future dreams.  Be ready to experience many other home made cocoons...
