Media Room Inspiration

With the recent purchase of a sectional for our media room, Ive been thinking more and more about how I want the room to be decorated. Were hoping to get this room finished by next February, around Super Bowl time, but well see! Here are two pictures that Ive drawn a lot of inspiration from for this room:

I decided that I want to make this room have a travel and/or map theme. I dont want this to be over done or too in-your-face, but I think it would be fun to design. Heres an inspiration board with some of my most recent thoughts for the room:

Sources/ideas:

Red roman shades with gray ribbon trim

Map of the world

Charcoal paint on the walls

Sectional from Macys

Mix of wood and metals, like these nesting tables from West Elm

Lots of pillows and fabrics in red, gray and cream

Interesting media cabinet, like this black console from Ballard Designs

Clock

Lamp

So, thats what were thinking for the room. It will be a while before we can collect all of the pieces, but Im excited to start to see it come together in the near future!

Modern Coastal Home Inspiration

{Coastal Living}

Hey there friends! I hope you all had good weekends. My husband finished his first year of grad school last week and we packed up and headed out to spend some time at my parents river house (remember these posts from last summer?). Being here is always such a treat and nice change of pace compared to the hustle and bustle of city life. Well actually be "stationed" here for a bit so there may not be many projects on the blog for awhile, but Ive got one big, fun one planned for when we get back, so stay tuned! For now, Ill be spending my time enjoying the view of the water from the screen porch and relaxing after a very busy season in our lives.

Being in my parents beautiful home with coastal-inspired decor got me dreaming about "modern coastal" style - a style Im certainly drawn to - so I thought Id share a few of my favorite images with yall today. When I think of that style, I think casual cozy spaces and furniture, fresh white shiplap paneling, nautical touches, rough-hewn woods, stripes, a range of blues, etc. It has a lot of overlap with the farmhouse look too. I hope youll be inspired by these pretty shots and maybe infuse a little "modern coastal" into your homes this summer!
