This is the stunning living room of Erin Featherston in New York. It can be described as a modern french style with a touch of whimsy. I am totally in love with this place, when can I move in? lol
I love the pastel natural colour scheme in the pastel blue and beige, the amazing French pieces and the high ceilings and tall windows.
Now I’m talking about yellow, yellow as the main inspiration behind everything. Could you possibly ever feel even a hint of depression in a house made up exclusively of yellow sunshine inspiration. Why don’t you be the judge! Could you live in a house like this? Do you love it or is it a tad too much?
It is definitely inspired by …mellow (or not so mellow) yellow!

My inspiration for today comes from this beautiful piece of fabric in a bluish lavender color and muted pastel greens and neutrals. It has an exquisite floral pattern that combines colors to create a gorgeous palette. The overall effect is one of serenity and tranquility, these colors create a peaceful and safe haven.
Let’s take a look at some rooms that incorporate this basic color theme so you can see how this color palette can take shape within your own home.
This first room is a perfect example of the color scheme of the fabric above at work. The color is put together beautifully with an arrangement of antique furniture. You can see how well different tones of purple and green work together to create a harmonious environment.
Next we have the same color scheme at work in a contemporary environment. The main colors of pastel purple, pastel green and whites working together to create harmony and take the edge of rigid hard straight lines, lending some softness to a modern look.
This color scheme is put to work in an outdoor environment with the veranda painted in lavender blue and white blending in perfectly with the natural greens of the plants and grass.
The following images are from a contemporary country house hotel in the Cotswolds called Cowley Manor who have created a remarkable guesthouse with each guestroom decorated and outfitted with handmade furniture and fabrics in fabulous pale pastel greens with touches of purple.
The fabulous courtyard.
