Each space, whether self-contained or open, is a unique shape. Many of the walls slope or slice through space. Asymmetrical windows cut into the walls of interior lecture halls, classrooms and computer labs. Flowing around and among these and the building’s myriad other facilities – sound stages, recording studios, screening rooms, exhibit and performance spaces, a multipurpose theater and other discrete areas – are “interactive spaces.” More expansive than traditional passageways, but more intimate than formal classrooms, they are designed to encourage impromptu exchanges and spontaneous collaboration. An abundance of natural light throughout further enhances the spirit of limitless possibility and outside-the-box thinking.......<b><a href="http://daniel-libeskind.com/projects/run-run-shaw-creative-media-centre">more</a></b>

Bright Basement Work Space Decorating Ideas

hardworking office and crafts haven with bright colors, DIY touches, and tons of storage.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="532" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJWOWcDdQa7ktDrp-E2IFikszUHPIPfCAP6vztDxkiLyD3sP86oDbq_XssUUFNPphmvNSR_Nr1MBI82jVmJhBa41Q2_6q-155U9s_AHBzCOS-dOpVQQ2W8p3xhwAMel1LDkFIwUpGG/s640/Bright-Basement-Work-Space-decorating-ideas-11.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Sunny Style</span> </b></span></div><br />Unlike some basements, this space is blessed with an abundance of sunlight. That makes this spacious corner the perfect space for a home office/crafting studio. The homeowners used countertops and cabinets to create an L-shape configuration that allows multiple workstations.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhohim7lmAqsGCFa1LTGSKfOrzZb_FYK0VFj2v59txagje8aiyIJZs0jS-fu-DGsNRIdsZTyVPsrhtRjl0v3Hn_bhhSZ-FXD2GQ4YtwTj9oXpAJwnSGLHpxZvpAXNGhGoqN7qyCRVax/s640/Bright-Basement-Work-Space-decorating-ideas-10.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Savvy Storage</span></b></span></div><br />To keep clutter at bay, the homeowner/designer mounted rods on the wall. Now her favorite supplies are out of drawers and off of surfaces yet still within easy reach. Baskets, bins, canisters, and magnetic strips provide perfect homes for ribbons, stamps, paper punches, embellishments, beads, and other art essentials.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5HEb-f_67miiI0jW1BGmoj5k2n9fgga_ZI63jXY3baEIuYXbg38Zrh3ETqcGALyxFW0DaA0nkfA9_WIZNc12_9pDMsNlKtAPZ8eKrbCSnz2_KrlMdAmYHt4BG96lu4q5T2u9LzRfc/s640/Bright-Basement-Work-Space-decorating-ideas-9.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Clear Solution</span> </b></span></div><br />These canisters are meant for the kitchen, but the homeowner/designer uses them to stash art supplies. Clear storage makes it easy for her to see and grab whatever she needs in an instant.<br /><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxtUm006WWmk-JXFxHkIgjqKe5lEXgLYS2gN6rc9DIIt41uKhckFtGYv5v_Rgdee_jYl7vbPLWa_elJ_5GT8kZF4aoV2RfSHJgyhk5ijBFmEFRa58jkeb-xowH5ySplyMY_qIqXzH8/s640/Bright-Basement-Work-Space-decorating-ideas-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Light Bright</span> </b></span></div><br />The homeowner/designer wanted to take advantage of the sunlight streaming in through the basement windows. But she didn't want to sacrifice privacy. So she had a plastics store cut these 12-inch panels of plexiglass and drill holes into the top and bottom of each piece. For color and fun, she affixed vellum and scrapbook paper to the back of each piece. Finally, she connected the panels with binder rings to create this completely unique window treatment.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc8C8BrkDEfaYHg3le7nST_G39ves4Mf2qomdDLcPkgbIQNq-OM-KYybKuvabc07dIB8ZXkaFLfzDIyIrva89awI5cTZG7gXByyDqRG1gGpRI8T2c89YSKu_UzMN2UBaB2xeGdRG_u/s640/Bright-Basement-Work-Space-decorating-ideas-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Color Cues</span></b></span></div><br />Mixing and matching vibrant color comes naturally to the homeowner/designer. For her work space, she chose a palette designed to inspire creativity. Two bright shades of orange coat the far wall panels, while lime green accentuates the adjacent wall.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiwzih2a2Jkje1T7-3bDyugrrB5sOciOkR9-kB83XhkNrv6BcYZjdXngmuXYrE3CC1G4MQYfJybgZpY4J2iVQ8ecX1pi8mMIjxKjEOWd6ejLbPPyp6qbdHVINNMdj-CEgLqLosIaFq/s640/Bright-Basement-Work-Space-decorating-ideas-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Orange Blossom</span> </b></span></div><br />Mod, graphic flowers bring the palette to life. The homeowner/designer first hand-drew the floral design on a transparency sheet, then used a projector to enlarge the image onto the wall. She drew the design on the wall in pencil, then covered it in a coat of light orange.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGAYtfuw1b7PGvJluHXaI-HADzQracWwN4ESbaeoqYpDGRnyp3z2k2-604WbLKeQUTKat9A_H0CGBuyRGCQUTqf747tb09ZUVfplFvUd1La9W-mLp3WvSFvdgi_2dioSUokfufJMFI/s640/Bright-Basement-Work-Space-decorating-ideas-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Barstool Style</span></b></span></div><br />To dress up plain stools, the homeowner/designer sewed custom skirts. She used fabric that complements her decor, then added ribbons to hold the slipcovers in place.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZzKho1NuSdRcngqknKVSM0qxT8CfZtVU7pNDv7lJG8N23ygnuElv9Ook5vJtzNjUOJQZ7t6uQIR-uc0v664p7VirFC1vgD3Gti2gF65vMgXPB86itLpoQOxzmtX1A_RbCmkl3VCEp/s640/Bright-Basement-Work-Space-decorating-ideas-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Cabinet Creativity</span></b></span></div><br />These storage units looked awfully plain before the homeowner/designer got her hands on them. First, she and her husband found three unfinished wood cabinets. They added molding to give the pieces architectural interest, then painted them in their favorite orange hues. She used frosted window film to create the diamond designs on the glass cabinet doors. Pretty curtains suspended from tension rods give the cabinets a soft look.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDBufiyUl4xRXS3F7IW2mR4OHRURSBtbg6Mbp_izn-xldN4r9yp9JizarKOWhBbR47U53dUHMBnR93FS8Ndi_GQ5hxudZMyFuAoX1wUZTRXgfb8geWEBz3gOQvfFiF7WahTe1eW9L9/s640/Bright-Basement-Work-Space-decorating-ideas-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;"><span class="heading2">Store More</span></span></b></div><br />Picking up on the floral theme from her DIY window treatment, the homeowner/designer used scrapbook papers to perk up plain white magazine files. Now the storage pieces look like they were created just for this space.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheLR9QT4aKrvngL2zUxBlOOlPdWZ2L79uH5z7mbKY1x6mEpZNnZHnv8SK_haLT0dzJirHRV9BExG8MqAyk_4z9M_NX_HMrjQdwlQLABqz_AVrT4JDmdlmpDzoCbTbmEb9JoglKk97n/s640/Bright-Basement-Work-Space-decorating-ideas-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">It's A Wrap</span> </b></span></div><br />It couldn't get much simpler. Dowel rods suspended from inexpensive curtain hardware allows easy access to wrapping and crafts papers. She painted the dowels blue to align them with her color palette.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiirdrh68kzu1NiIocHaVJcE6PUwBShCqBB-JQwa1lJHm_oe8ZsmHUidNYTdmJubW6AxZ9xf5WOJEO5MHTSaPmn6FFhlkbshpyb60kTtNtmczahuXYL-9Jwr8ixTGadsURfXdkNa2VN/s640/Bright-Basement-Work-Space-decorating-ideas.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Clean Sweep</span> </b></span></div><br />The homeowners chose easy-to-clean vinyl flooring for their work space. It resists scratches and scuffs, and it wipes up in a jiffy if paint happens to spill. The natural, woven-look pattern provides a subtle way to ground the bright wall colors.<br /><br /><br />

Roger Stephenson Architects created a bright, contemporary and welcoming space where a mix of banquettes, booth seats and centre floor tables sit comfortably against a contemporary design which combines timbers, natural stones and plush leathers. Lighting, supplied by large ivory pendants, provides an intimate atmosphere against a back drop of American Walnut and a "theatre" kitchen allows diners to experience the excitement of the kitchen which sits adjacent to the bar area where pre dinner drinks and tapas are served........<b><a href="http://www.rogerstephenson-architects.com/portfolio/grado.html#main">more</a></b>

The basement office consists of a linear open plan office arrangement with staff and WC facilities located parallel to this space. The ground floor office is divided into three distinct zones, with the creation of a new mezzanine deck, which provides an additional third level of office accommodation above. Behind the new façade, public sales and reception spaces provide a frontage to the river and public domain. Behind these spaces the mezzanine runs centrally along the spine of the existing space, creating semi-public meeting spaces underneath the deck. This central spine of accommodation in turn screens private office space to the rear. It is also the services conduit for the whole, thereby maximising flexibility within the offices......<b><a href="http://www.hodderandpartners.com/projects/dandara-offices-manchester">more</a></b>

After she earned a degree in criminology, she soon enrolled at The Art Institute of Chicago where she earned a B.F.A in interior architecture. The interpersonal skills she learned during her criminology studies helps her develop a profile of her clients and uncover their true design preferences. As the owner of a design firm and a home décor store in Chicago, Meg characterizes herself as a determined, direct and high-energy competitor. She describes her design style as a preppy mix of modern and traditional, but she also counts the vibrant pastel colors of “Palm Beach chic” among her favorite looks.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Holiday Projects for easy Christmas decorating ideas

Add something new to your standby Christmas decor. Alongside your sentimental ornaments and favorite pieces, introduce an updated centerpiece or a fresh take on stairway decor, and you might find a new decorating tradition!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiitcpv0cLBkhdm-XOK1LWdP7Kb38-SkYn7B3u4KeSRD9H-x-OnOga_5LS3fcp7uM-On4JhaajTgf08p3oJ895V21GvwN9PN5m6s0i0Ys0yamTevDYkX2aYiVLCHn7rA7Mb2pCX0ypU/s640/easy-Christmas-decorating-ideas-9.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Holiday Headboard</span></b></span></div><br />With a neutral base, it's easy to add a bit of temporary holiday flair to a bedroom. Drape hand towels or tea towels over a headboard, and pin together covers for throw pillows using striped napkins and place mats. Drape an unfinished length of burlap over a side table and add a potted dwarf evergreen. For the final touch, hang a few pine branches on the wall over the bed to accent the headboard.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjfNsvKC4IKaC4aZOCxalto2w7EyLfBkMfIAFH1nwBstEP-XJSvCAPXnDQxQD0Oi5yy1JH3ifeQEQq2McxuGNB04zgkAcNFjP6gHHvElb86dT87b6wAFF3Ie5lFs350wc1bq1zgKuK/s640/easy-Christmas-decorating-ideas-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Holiday Accent Pillow</span></b></span></div><br />The best holiday decorations make use of what you already own, allowing you to transform them with the changing seasons. Add festive touches to a neutral pillow in no time at all. Cut a holiday shape a tree, a star, an ornament from felt or burlap, and use thick yarn or twine to secure the shape to the pillow.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJ26VAjuM0nH_pvZZqnqI_SB-OQqYfdzNsvtze4RT5udYsNHaq-1b5zK6ufj-vM15BqS3uJX_ljO28gt639dKEeF53_Ogzrv5TneKLWiVR9FFs5PbWpomlRDRyHTzkgCVNBgt_xGXz/s640/easy-Christmas-decorating-ideas-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Beautiful Buffet Table</span></b></span></div><br />Adorn this buffet table with several traditional and unique holiday decorations. Filled with apples and cherries, these lanterns light up the table without a candlestick in sight. Cut from inexpensive burlap that's fringed at the edges, a table scarf adds a colorful pop underneath, while a trio of trees are actually branches set in wet florist's foam in clay pots. A sliver-size window displays a holiday message spelled using adhesive letters.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLnf2Pi-oCaS6MWF889Na2jjsjN7LXfPxkm3UGLIP3rPnGEuBcvGTfUuRPEkthDjnhnyJXowx0FU5xmEdwmb22H80GPXJ030uEqIgOhGSfLUV5SxsVTsx367HhL6KdIONjViGZ0tk-/s640/easy-Christmas-decorating-ideas.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Greenery Gift Garnish</span></b></span></div><br />Surprising accents make present wrapping and giving  that much more enjoyable.

Fill a larger vase part way with fresh cranberries or small beads and insert a smaller glass votive holder. Mix and match sizes of vases or keep them all the same for a more consistent pattern.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpVkbK6MubMjTTyhJQmJDp1TKEYyJKxWUR4r_xj8QWo_6M-LZ69wKh4YcYZdWShyphenhyphen_0JzG6IYU9n40I1SbaLR4MJMDQS8GePMS8sP_CAPa9lWRavtQApxQpqlgvYF2z-mlroS85iEdD/s640/easy-Christmas-decorating-ideas-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Favorite Christmas Cards Display</span></b></span></div><br />A new crop of holiday cards is a great way to display lots of color and pattern throughout your house.

Bundle fresh herbs together with twine and tie them together with a length of ribbon to make festive bouquets. For fragrance and color, try an arrangement of thyme, rosemary, marjoram, and a bay leaf.<b> </b><br /><b>Editor's Tip:</b><br />The bouquets can be made several days in advance<br />refrigerate them until you're ready to use them.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi06chJwa09vQJIsq5u_9q2mBdm2zd5Psx8M3UriB2X77r1FVAE0nWjFdsrwsblNUL-e0kCnsNhLsZWKqX07HT7CescPFccnW5IcrVHM1qE0wtHEwY9kzvQgW08YeMXw5nRwN1erWiT/s640/easy-Christmas-decorating-ideas-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Colorful Glass Candy Jar</span></b></span></div><br />What would the holidays be without a few sweet treats? Luckily, bright ribbonlike varieties are pretty enough to display on their own. Fill a few lidded glass containers with various colors and sizes and loop a bright green cord through a pretty paper label.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvYCg5f8ZM3wDyd3lLOPrnJ580l83IZ1Q43Nn8kCfZ9-AibhplzqdNn1TXrclKgRvx97Py_1xaYdXmd9jJ5P8wQAZw270X6SJNPdUZZUsfEF_nwYFy1Hnmz6IRNZQQnkIwIdL18bzT/s640/easy-Christmas-decorating-ideas-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Pretty Paper Accents</span></b></span></div><br />Twisted into a cone, a square of decorative paper bedecks everything from a chair back to a doorknob. Secure the cone with glue and trim the top, then punch holes to insert a ribbon hanger and line with a pretty handkerchief or towel. Fill the easy-to-make decoration with a little gift or a sachet for a pretty take-home present.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4obL4syDkV_CdGZcXul8-gub2fWr9dfGY0ytJZS5a5i8tZXYRgo5Ws6LydPDWFceprXjIvMLX5t9lvlQNTPsFNjitqRObHaQWN5vnuaQpmWSLoi3KdoZnD-nIdQmVDYvf-XpTvIn5/s640/easy-Christmas-decorating-ideas-10.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Natural Holiday Basket</span></b></span></div><br />Some of the most elegant focal pieces are crafted from simple materials and can be assembled without a fuss.

The graphic banding of floor and walls creates a foreshortened perspective to simulate the city experience within the Center. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoZix0w6CgiXTSPtGxLfDHZ36zwoKbPhFQoYyyo5egYjImDyDvyd5joRca7rBynMHMbIrsONpWzP71Bn7_SC7PsguBauRvRQfS_DhyphenhyphenB0HrreLZqKA55RYZWRwsCTYrO349kkcNH7f80KI/s1600/2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="423" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoZix0w6CgiXTSPtGxLfDHZ36zwoKbPhFQoYyyo5egYjImDyDvyd5joRca7rBynMHMbIrsONpWzP71Bn7_SC7PsguBauRvRQfS_DhyphenhyphenB0HrreLZqKA55RYZWRwsCTYrO349kkcNH7f80KI/s640/2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

Even though it isn't huge the space is really used well. I love the glass door cabinets and dark counter-tops. The fridge gives it a sleek look but the little touches like the green stools and cute lamp keep it more traditional and warm. The great thing about these types of designs is they look beautiful but it's nothing the average person couldn't do with a little elbow grease.</div><br /><br /><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5624458374541849010" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitSGK-kQLtgudOi-Zo8lytyw_AOvRkMKM0E6ztpvpUTGXhUME-T84IUBzlZeSWyOAOcJiaQ71PnIPEfkcCqfDkDp1KA1f9nTzSar5yslSJThzu_V1V9UIx06Q2LTi8SSpsaIA1GUseaw-m/s400/candice-olson-Dining+Room.jpg" style="cursor: hand; display: block; height: 300px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">This dining room is a dream! Soft powdered blues and cremes are so serene and calming. It would be lovely to have a fireplace in your dining room to roar while you have your family dinners. The detail on the chairs is phenomenal as well. It's a solid light blue on the seat but the back has a pretty pattern upholstered on it and the rug below matches perfectly with the whole scene. Bon appetite!</div><br /><br /><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5624458144652727778" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3MxgsfexqJHxlVa4IkaLT0OPC44RPGD6WMZcuF_LYh_0n163XECUd-Zu6qn9Bcq0RdEXQMuvlymLNDL3RnDct5aUvx_Db2-LmzbeOow11SQadwmT4iIrJ3njWTGYyPuPnBUbZlYAdRgIT/s400/candice-olson-Bathroom.jpg" style="cursor: hand; display: block; height: 300px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I think this bathroom would be like having your very own spa in your house. Lots of dark finishes and stone looking tiles with a large soaker tub make it feel classic and comfortable. I think the floating counter is a really interesting look and the white coral accessory is the perfect touch. Give me my glass of wine and dim the lights because I'm ready for a soak!</div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5624456966365307010" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9giEFCQHvWLKO00_zsKQP34rE9LyARHOZZT5EowDchOyfccxuyaO3WCS_-mkuUX0V-FQjbCtDaa6MYLsxRVLTN5V5txc8sM-59OR1kDdkcXm7FeUjtYnWEBvhJ-tN0WWPrT56c6mrbBH4/s400/candice-olson-Bedroom.jpg" style="cursor: hand; display: block; height: 234px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" />This massive bedroom is the size of my entire apartment! It's so warm and inviting and the vaulted ceiling gives it a unique architectural touch that draws the eye. A bedroom is your sanctuary so it should be a representation of you and whatever makes you comfortable. A fireplace in the bedroom is so romantic and a chaise always looks like a luxurious place to flop down with a good book. I would love to retire to this paradise every night.</div><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5624456962646913186" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBel-dyeuxp7HfgHd9DZHXlzaKdl78orM1fO8DcOKpgrRqrJ9bUszhXkINtl5-LuR_4P07WUwLjNJWOcbHXvWC3WH3fUUc5w5BkxDYwt63prP-cSvlTllSNZbdUUDTWfgJRJ98gODukvSy/s400/candice-olson-living+room.jpg" style="cursor: hand; display: block; height: 300px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 400px;" /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">This is a basement hang out Candice did on a more recent episode and I am digging everything about it. It's such a warm colour pallet but it's practical at the same time. One thing that always drives me crazy is when designers fill a room with white furniture. Of course it looks beautiful but will it after your dark furred kitty has rolled around on it and the kids have spilled their juice or the dust settles and it just looks grubby? A dark couch helps you to feel less neurotic about spills and messes. The recessed lighting really works well here with a few lamps and sconces and the neutral rug ties everything together. Pop in your favorite movie and cuddle up with the ones you love!<br /><br />For more great designs by Ms Candice Olson check out her show on the Women's Network or at her website at http://www.divinedesign.tv/master.asp</div><br />
