Pretty Details

We're adjusting back into small space living here at Chez Komenda. As I've been making decorating choices and purchases, I keep thinking about form and function and about surprises in design.


Dresser by the New Traditionalists

Really, there's nothing all that mind-bending about an idea like this - to paint the insides of a drawer in an unexpected color. But when there are only a couple of large pieces in our apartment, and when furniture has to do double/triple/quadruple duty, it's little extra steps like this that will keep things fresh. It might just be the crazy decorator in me, but design is in the details and I know I'd smile at the sight of that red after opening a drawer for the 100th time in a given day.
