We invite you to envy with us this to-die-for abode of MAC Cosmetics’ kingpin, John Demsey. There’s no holding back; every palette’s got punch, but it calms in that classic reassuring way. I love how he’s got what a lot have (acrylic table, white figurine, mono photos, a statement light piece…) but makes the space his own with fearless wall colour and another quirky fair find for good measure. Place Madeline Weinrib Ikat curtains and rug in the mix and the boldness melts… it’s the the ying that the yang is craving.  elle-decor-oct-madeline-weinrib21

Even the assertive black and white rooms with the celeb photos everywhere, somehow want you to stay and sit awhile.

And who would see that dreamy starlight rug that would look right at home in any 80’s tween bedroom, and know to match it with that? Jealous.

It’s that time of the year again when the U.S. President takes a vacation. This year Obama has chosen Martha’s Vineyard for his holiday which will make him the sixth President to do so,  following in the foot steps of Calvin Coolidge, Ulysses S Grant, John F Kennedy, Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton. The Obama’s are renting the 20.35 million Blue Heron Farm on Cobbs Hill Road overlooking Tiah’s Cove in Chilmark and West Tisbury.

For those of you who are not, My Space appears every Saturday and tells about different people’s work spaces and how they interact in them. It is always an interesting read and covers a broad range of people and their professions. We were lucky enough to be featured in the latest My Space and thought we would share it with you! Click on the image below to read Diane’s interview and also have a sneak peek in to the inspiring work space that is Diane Bergeron interiors! Thanks to Lindy Percival for the interview.

We were super excited to get our new Real Living magazine July issue with our good friend Michelle Adams inside! She graces no less than 8 pages and her apartment looks fantastic! We know Michelle has been working so hard to get everything spic and span for this shoot and she has done a brilliant job. She really shows what can be done in a small space and on a budget. Her look is nothing less than stylish and Michelle’s natural flair for transforming interiors is obvious! Patrick Cline has taken these beautiful photos and together, he and Michelle make a great team! We are so proud of you Michelle! Come back and see us again very soon…… or we will just have to come and see you. Huge congratulations - you look so darn cute on that sofa too!

Oh, we forget to mention that as well as being pretty and clever, Michelle is the founder of her own organic fabric range, Rubie Green.

Did we say she has a great blog too……….

as well as being really, really nice

and funny?

Sometimes the change can be vast and the room becomes almost unrecognizable from its original state. Very often changing a room to suit is expensive and can disrupt a whole household. Well, not always. As great fans of Eddie Ross, we are always keen to find out what he is up to and his recent butler’s pantry reno. had us aghast! So simple, so stylish and so effective - Eddie you are a genius. Take a look below at the the before and after of this pantry and then tell us that this man is not brilliant! So with a minimum of fuss, and not too many dollars later, Eddie’s pantry would make any butler weep.
