Red & Turquoise: Not Just for Holiday Decor

| December 21, 2011

With all of this holiday cheer and festive decor, I can’t help but imagine what a holiday nursery might look like! Of course, that isn’t very practical, so instead, let’s just let the colors inspire us! One of my favorite color combinations used for the holidays is red and turquoise—they are bright and happy colors, a [...]

Donny Deutsch’s Modern Kids Rooms

| September 12, 2011

Advertising man Donny Deutsch recently unveiled his super modern, art-filled NYC apartment in this month’s issue of Architectural Digest. Like the television personality he flaunts on his CNBC talk show, the apartment’s decor is big, bold and kinda in your face. Like a true girly-girl, pink is the theme of his daughter’s bedroom. The pieces [...]

Design Dilemma: How Can I Create A Playroom I Can...

| December 21, 2010

PN Subscriber: I am currently trying to find the best way to design a playroom while also including a desk and computer for myself and I need help! -Angie

Project Nursery: Oh the playroom… At its best, it’s the most fun, exciting and imaginative place. At its worst, it’s the most cluttered, disorganized and often the most frustrating room in the home.

| August 12, 2010

Jason [...]

I am always trying to find a way to add “pop” in a room. Often times the easiest way to add it is with color. Red seems so obvious at times…perhaps because of all the colors in the rainbow red is the most dramatic.  Which is why…a little or a lot of red as an [...]

Real Rooms: Home Office Turned Playroom

| May 5, 2010

It’s funny how the house that my husband and I initially purchased before kids seemed to have PLENTY of space. Pass go, collect two kids and suddenly a home office no long exists much less any additional storage.  With the walls closing in and toys taking over our great room, it was time to move [...]
