COLOR POP.

nothing but gloom here this week in san francisco. the constant pitter patter of raindrops has me wishing for brighter skies and a bit of color. so i’m making my own color today. here you go. my gift to you on a rainy gray day!

one very color blocked kitchen, via elle decor south africa (above and below).

love the black fixtures and appliances with all that color; porcelain tableware and pendant lamps from the mod collective.

french tulips, one of my favorites, always add color, via en mammas dag; and pretty living room with a pop of bright yellow, via helt enkelt.

our city lights diy pink chalkboard door is adorable; i love the fine little day ruperta striped cushion cover; William and Mary Reclaimed Wood Round Side Table with Chartreuse Legs from edies lab; pretty hot pink ostrich pillow from calypso st. barth; and more pink porcelain dishware from the mod collective.

one great magazine storage piece from car möbel and some great pops of yellow!

i love this colorful workspace gallery via design files.












































Man, I love that hot pink door painted with chalkboard paint… that’s kinda wicked.
The South Africa decor is cool. The mid-century furniture really pops out against the green kitchen. I like it! It is so windy here where I live I am afraid one of the Eucalyptus tree’s is going to crash down so I am going to go get a burrito just in case.. Saved by a burrito.. Love the garbage can’s too!
How wonderful is that kitchen? I’m getting inspiration for my own (future) kitchen for sure.
Have you seen Kate Spade’s new campaign to “Live Colorfully”? This house is spot on! Also, I love the crumpled trashcans and abstract paintings – reminds me of works by Ian Davenport and Jessica Snow.

Where do I start, I love this post. The tile, so perfect and bold. I love the pink door too, but I’m not brave enough. Did you notice the yellow wall hanging, holding a magazine, is I think a bicycle rat trap? So cool! Love!
such springy colours!
Amazing! Loved it! By the way, I love your blog!I have a blog too and I’m always inspired by yours!
The last picture is from the Design Files Open house. It was a pop up shop in an open house last year in Melbourne. Such a great concept, have a look…

thanks mel! i’ll correct that link and check it out!
That first room is so simple yet so effective! I’ll have to remember it if we ever have a guest room down the track… and a coloured door. I need a bold, coloured door. One day.
