L Dining by David Moreland

I got a call from Backhouse today, who let me know that the L Dining table by David Moreland that I ordered on behalf of my client is on its way. I am excited to see this table made out of American white oak up close. It is a beautiful simple design and I know it will look great in my client's dining area.

Lovely Light Grey

I was out with friends for dinner last night and one has asked for my help with her apartment. She mentioned that she would be re-painting the walls - which are at present white. She suggested doing something different, maybe adding a colour. We talked about the possibility of greys, which is a nice step up from white. Here are some lovely scenes styled by Hilary Robertson (as spotted on Emma's Design Blog) that has soft light grey on the walls. Looks gorgeous.
