My Dining Room Inspiration!

I'm not sure where to begin!  It all started with a couple of pictures of a dining area and me needing to find the original credit for them.  I've seen them on Pinterest and I'm sure, they've been all over the blogosphere!  I think I may have even pinned them?  Hmmm, if I haven't I will after this posting!  Sometimes on Pinterest, the source of the images are not always the original source, they are the source from which the pinner pinned the image, and further research needs to happen in order to give proper credit.  I now have that proper credit for them and many other images that I found by being diligent!



I have been so drawn to this space!  The bluish/gray wall finish with the black and white checkered tile floor makes for a wonderful canvas for all other elements to succeed!  The warm finish of those beautiful chairs with the dark pattern of the wood grain is sublime!  Heck, the style of the chairs, alone, are just gorgeous!  But then you have the chairs juxtaposed with the simplicity of the black table and black bamboo arm chair!  I love it!  Let's not stop there!  Can we talk about the brass chandelier, gold mirror, and gold chargers underneath the potted plants!  These elements just remind me that the details really aren't just the details, they truly are the design!  All of these elements come together to create a space that makes for an incredibly lovely and comfortable experience!  One in which you're sitting there enjoying the meal, the company, and the view!  What more could you ask for!  Something for all of the senses!

I attended a presentation given by Tracy Zeller, of Tracy Zeller Designs in Charlotte, NC, while in High Point at the Spring Furniture Market.  She spoke about the importance of Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest as it relates to the interior design industry.  It was a wonderful presentation and very informative!  Although, I'm pretty knowledgeable about all three of these as I utilize them daily, there was one thing she said while speaking about Pinterest and citing the original source of images that grabbed my attention!  I have numerous images that I have found online from different sources that I've saved to a file or usually the camera role on my iPhone.  Well, now I know that I can upload an image from my files into Google images, and search to find the original credit!  How did I not know this as much as I am on the computer!  I didn't and I am so glad to now be equipped to find the source of so many of my most inspiring images!

Anyhoo, in searching for the origin of the previous two images, it lead me to the work of Raul Martins, an interior designer based in Madrid!  The photos of his 19th century apartment are beautiful and really showcases his wonderful talent!






Whatever your plans for the weekend, be safe, laugh a lot, make it amazing, and be inspired!
xoxo,
Rhonda
