I’ve found myself completely drawn to rooms using variations of the classic director’s chair lately. Either in a casual canvas and wood or a more studious leather and metal. There is something so comfortable and whimsical in the style as well as a great combination of angles to play off any decor style. I particularly am fond of this look in beach houses…. Take a look at some examples and some you can buy yourself!
If I could be anywhere, at any given time, it would be sitting outside of a cafe in Paris on a warm sunny day with a cappuccino (or glass of wine, let’s be real here). That is my happy place. And as of late I’ve been noticing the French cafe chair trend appearing in home this side of the Atlantic.
The originals:
The Inspired Designs: I LOVE these for beach or country home kitchens or to give that feel to city dining areas.
The TK Collection is the go to for this style chair-everything is custom (color, weave pattern, etc) but you’ll have to order through a designer.
Pottery Barn has some great navy ones in chair and bar stool height:
Serena and Lilly has some outdoor lounge furniture as well as dining chairs in this style that would be adorable on a patio!
I’ve been lucky enough to get to work on some amazing nurseries as of late and in perusing the interwebs I’ve come to realize that children’s sites are sometime really great secret resources for grown up decor! Restoration Hardware Baby & Child is one of those goldmines! Just be sure to double check the dimensions on any furniture- ordering a club chair only to have it arrive mini sized would be quite the buzzkill.
GORGEOUS feather prints. Just love these.
A large scale print of an elephant and a collection of vintage sheet music.
I love this rope mirror almost as much as I adore this gold rivet frame one.
This upholstered floor mirror is PERFECT for a bedroom or dressing room, and the huge gilt frame pinboard is amazing for an office or kitchen!
An adorable gilt drink table and vintage looking trunk side tables.
I’d skip the valance on the first set of drapes, but LOVE the inset trim. And the mid-line stripe of the second set is a cool statement.
Two great light fixtures for a bedroom, entry or small dining area.
A great braided wool rug is a basic and this ombre dye rug makes a bolder impact.
A great daybed for a small guest room!
