Simplicity in Saint Germain

Veranda posted pics of this apartment in the Saint Germain neighborhood of Paris on Instagram and now it has me even more excited to rent an apartment next year. It also makes me want to order a new sofa upholstered in a blue/black linen fabric.  I love how all the dark accents and gilt frames pop off the light walls. I'm also surprised that nothing was hung above the bed.  But sometimes it's nice to leave a place for the eye to rest. I'm sad to say though that I think the designer, David Gieseman, passed away in 2011.  He had been born in Ohio and lived in New York City before moving to Paris in 1977. I would like to think that he'd be happy to know that others are thinking of following in his footsteps and still admiring his lovely apartment.

Simplicity in Saint Germain

Perfectly Petite

I live for the days when I find a new issue of Australia Vogue Living on the newsstand.  It's always full of interesting and chic interiors and the September/October 2012 issue features my new favorite home.  I also found a few other pics on a blog that allow you to see a little more of the space. Designer Cameron Kimber created an oasis of calm in what was once a boring brown cottage in Sydney.  The wood paneling was white washed to open up the petite space that is punctuated to pops of black, gilt, green, and blue, and grounded with natural floor matting. You may recognize a few of the pieces that were in his old home that was featured in the July/August 2008 issue of Australia Vogue Living. It's definitely one of those spaces that makes me want to throw everything out and start over.  Thanks Cameron.
