A Rocker Chic Aviary Pad.

My love for butterflies continues…

Atlanta native Chassie Post, a lifestyle editor at Gilt.com, lives in this beautiful Manhattan loft with her family(rocker Phil Costello and their 8 year old son). She was not impressed with the loft when she first saw it. However, when her very close friend(my design crush), Miles Redd convinced her to see its potential. Architect Meyer Davis also threw in his two cents on how fabulous a place this Manhattan loft could be. The power house duo; Miles and Meyer set to work and created a sophisticated aviary style loft with some rocker’s edge and lots of girly charm…

the giant gilded mirror grounds the framed art pieces beautifully in this collage(Mr. Redd’s handiwork)

are those white knobs on the range? also, I love how they used the wall paper as the backsplash!

“Though it may not be the most practical idea to wallpaper an entire loft I really like the idea of using traditional materials in a more modern space.” says Post. I actually love how they went all out with the wall paper and I think it works. After all, Miles Redd is not known for being timid in his design choices…

perfect juxtaposition of traditional and modern

details…

love it all!

loads of natural light make the interior and wallpaper sing. just beautiful; so is Chassie Post! Blessings and Happy Wednesday my friends. XX

Designer Spotlight: Miles Redd

Miles Redd’s designs are not for the faint of heart which is probably why he appeals to me. He is a designer who is not fearless in his use of colour and the juxtaposition of varying textures. I also admire his effortless mix of design genres. I love that oversized art piece and the flokati rug featured above. There’s nothing like the feel of a flokati rug underfoot-so soft and furry.

I love the blend of cool and warm tones in this room. Check out that ark sexy floor that enables everything else to say”look at me!”

Lovely eclectic collage an that gilded mirror is perfect in the center. I love the old world and romantic vibe that’s ebbing in the vein of this space

Somber, organic, stylish and a dash of pink. Gotta love it!

Traditional with some feminine flair!

I’d be happy in either of these bedrooms! Do you have a favourite Miles Redd room?

Happy Wednesday my lovelies! XX
