Girasol is a new restaurant in Studio City, CA by Orange County-born C.J. Jacobson. His craft is best described as “rustic refined” very much like the interior of the restaurant. The interior design is chic and filled with subtle natural elements like the gray stone walls and white washed oak flooring. The main star of the show is the metal sunflower (girasol means “sunflower” in Spanish) that lines the ceiling and drops onto the side of the wall creating quite a focal point.
Happy Friday! The Christopher Guy furniture collection is so elegant and unique. If you live in NYC, Los Angeles or High Point, NC you can view their beautiful showrooms in person.
Dior’s 5000 square-foot Beverly Hills boutique along Rodeo Drive has undergone a contemporary and classic French interior design style which the company notes “reflects the traditional and modern elegance of Dior”. The interior has plenty of shades of grey which is another favored design element of Dior. From upholstery, casegoods, carpet to pillows. Image sources WWD
Decorating with dark wall colors can seem risky but surprisingly if done right it can be rather beautiful. Darker walls can bring warmth, texture and dimension to a room. If you like the look and feel of sophistication, glamour and drama then you may want to give it a try. My tip is to add pieces that will contrast against the dark color and create balance within the space. A gorgeous mirror or piece of colorful art will really standout and make quite a statement. Remember to keep the space open with good flow so it won’t feel crowded or cluttered.
