Christopher Peacock's gorgeous grey and white kitchen

This kitchen is my dream right now! The clean crisp feeling of the cabinetry with the grey paint!  Love the hanging lights and the modern twist with the table and chairs!  Perfection!

Inspiration.. Eric Pike of Martha Stewart

Everything begins with a little bit of inspiration. I love the inspiration box for this house.  So simply greige...  

Do you have an inspiration box?  I always think that it can contain so much more than pictures and fabrics... shells that are that perfect wall color, inspired art pieces, remnants of this or that..

Circa Lighting on my mind - the reflection sconce

MEDIUM CHELSEA REFLECTION SCONCE

 

SEBASTIAN ARCHITECT'S LIGHT

by Thomas O'Brien 

 

HAMPSHIRE BALUSTRADE TABLE AND BEDSIDE LAMP

EUGENE HANGING LIGHT

 

Circa lighting is one of my all time favorites for lighting.  They always seem to have something that works for me.  I love the new pieces for this season and I think I have to find a place to put one of those reflection sconces...  just perfect.

Live simply

and with cool lighting!

Did I mention I love Grey...

You know what is funny (well not funny ha ha funny - but funny) I spend a lot of time tracking down images. Images that match up to my thoughts- does that make sense? When I imagine a space I am always thinking that I have seen it somewhere before and it drives me insane when I cannot find that exact image. The reason that I bring this up is that I was going through my images and noticed that I have saved a BUNCH of really cool images to share with you that I have been just saving... So here I am - sharing now!

Which leads me to this Kitchen... I am love loving this kitchen!! Everything about it from the cabinets, to the stools, the cut corners on the counter, the stove - maybe I would go for different lights- like these Jamie Young pendants.. Otherwise loving it!

Quick note: Does anyone know where I can find those stools they look like Lyons but I cannot find them??

Alison Berger Glass lighting

Since the day I laid eyes on her pieces at Holly Hunt in the PDC I have been truly in love! Alison Berger makes the most amazing glass pendants you have ever seen! Each piece is designed by hand and is a piece of art. I have reserved locations for some of these in my kitchen and master bath.... someday.

The picture above is from this months House Beautiful in a home by Michael S. Smith. He uses the Alison Berger Word Pendants.

Focus in on Hanging Pendants

Hanging pendants are a great accent piece in so many spaces. Today groupings are replacing the traditional chandelier or can lighting, adding interest and character to dining rooms, kitchens, retail spaces, bathrooms, bedrooms and office spaces.

These fantastic pieces are from Lindsey Adelman the shapes are very organic and gorgeous!

Clear glass Jamie Young pendants





These simple glass pendants at varied heights add interest and depth in these modern dining areas. In a small space you can get a huge impact from pendants with out the heaviness you might feel when using a chandelier.
