        <p>What a beautiful foyer.&nbsp; Sure, it's got a lot going for it architecturally, lots of windows looking out to lush green and very open.&nbsp; But, it's also been expertly decorated with some gorgeous antiques and that blue door is a knock out.&nbsp; Not to mention that red bauble hanging from the ceiling...aqua and red are quite interesting together, tribal and refined all at the same time.</p>

        <p>On February 13th, 2010, I became a mama to Beckett Lyons Moore.&nbsp; While I was pregnant, I designed a nursery for him (and me), which is finally complete, including baby!&nbsp; Here are pics of the space...</p>
<p>The design centers around a wall mural of lifelike birch trees.&nbsp; This went up like wallpaper and we got the help of a pro to hang.&nbsp; It has lots of black and white contrast, which Beckett loves to gaze at.&nbsp; We painted the other walls with Benjamin Moore's Decorator's White and used Eco-Spec which has low VOCs.&nbsp; The room has an airy and refreshing feel to it.</p>
<p>For the rocking chair, I used a vintage Eames style chair and ottoman, which I had recovered in soft chocolate brown leather.</p>
<p><img height="333" src="/images/uploads/IMG_4767.jpg" width="499" /></p>
<p>The crib is Ikea's <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/00116005" target="_blank">Gulliver</a> in White.&nbsp; And, the bedding is a simple organic cream colored crib sheet.&nbsp; Since the mural is busy, wanted to keep all other elements really clean and simple.</p>
<p><img height="499" src="/images/uploads/IMG_4768.jpg" width="333" /></p>
<p>A mobile of tiny deer cut from birch plywood dangles over the crib.&nbsp; Found this on <a href="http://www.etsy.com" target="_blank">Etsy</a>.</p>
<p><img height="333" src="/images/uploads/IMG_4771.jpg" width="499" /></p>
<p>An antique oak dresser stores Beckett's threads and doubles as a changing table.&nbsp; It adds a lot of warmth to the room.&nbsp; This happens to be the dresser that I grew up with...just removed the  fancy carved mirror and updated the hardware.</p>
<p><img height="499" src="/images/uploads/IMG_4785.jpg" width="333" /></p>
<p>The handles on the dresser are white stones which works with the nature feel of the room.</p>
<p><img height="333" src="/images/uploads/IMG_4781.jpg" width="499" /></p>
<p>On the changing table is Sophie the giraffe who keeps Beckett happy while he's getting changed.&nbsp; We also purchased a washcloth warmer to use instead of wipes, which we love...the warmth is soothing to Beckett and it cuts down on the cost and waste of wipes!&nbsp; An oversized silk eye pillow is repurposed for a baby pillow.&nbsp; In the background you can see the window panels, which are white linen.</p>
<p><img height="333" src="/images/uploads/IMG_4794.jpg" width="499" /></p>
<p>We just got this nifty and adorable Beck puzzle stool in the mail as a gift.&nbsp; The wool throw on Eames chair is vintage.&nbsp; And, the lamb plushy on the ottoman was a gift and made by Gund.</p>
<p><img height="333" src="/images/uploads/IMG_4814.jpg" width="499" /></p>
<p>Beckett's lovies and books are kept in a basket woven from recycled paper.</p>
<p><img height="499" src="/images/uploads/IMG_4818.jpg" width="333" /></p>
<p>And, here is my little sweetheart!</p>

        <p>I discovered South African designer <a href="http://www.laurieoweninteriors.co.za/" target="_blank">Laurie Owen</a> over the weekend&nbsp;after reading a bit about her on <a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/dc/green-ideas/inspiration-laurie-owens-romanticorganic-interiors-079713" target="_blank">Apartment Therapy</a>.&nbsp; She has dubbed her style "Romantic Organic".&nbsp; Most of the pictures on her website are of resorts that she's designed, but she also does residential work.&nbsp; Check it out:</p>
<p><em><strong>Harnas Lodge in Namibia: </strong></em></p>
<p><img height="224" src="/images/uploads/laurie.png" width="320" /></p>
<p><img height="224" src="/images/uploads/2.png" width="320" /></p>

<p><img height="224" src="/images/uploads/14.png" width="320" /></p>
<p><img height="224" src="/images/uploads/15.png" width="320" /></p>
<p><img height="224" src="/images/uploads/16.png" width="320" /></p>
<p><em><strong>Little Kulala in Namibia:</strong></em></p>
<p><img height="223" src="/images/uploads/17.png" width="320" /></p>
<p><img height="485" src="/images/uploads/18.png" width="320" /></p>

<p><em><strong>Vumbura Lodge in Botswana:</strong></em></p>
<p><img height="321" src="/images/uploads/23.png" width="320" /></p>
<p><img height="223" src="/images/uploads/24.png" width="320" /></p>

<p><img height="224" src="/images/uploads/26.png" width="320" /></p>
<p>So, I've attempted to deconstruct her work so we can all&nbsp;bring a&nbsp;little (or&nbsp;lot)&nbsp;of this&nbsp;"Romantic Organic"&nbsp;style to our homes.&nbsp; Here is what I'm seeing:</p>
<p>-Raw tree trunks, branches, twigs,&nbsp;stumps, roots,&nbsp;rocks, and stones&nbsp;for furnishings and decor</p>
<p>-Faux natural furnishings and accents (ex. stone&nbsp;shaped&nbsp;ottomans&nbsp;made of wool or&nbsp;metal&nbsp;&amp; metallic tree trunk tables)</p>
<p>-Drippy strands of crystal, beads, coral, bone, silver</p>
<p>-Earthy browns {taupes, camels, ecrus},&nbsp;&nbsp;atmospheric blues, pure whites, and touches of&nbsp;black</p>
<p>-Fluffy plush rugs and pillows</p>
<p>-Metallic accessories</p>
<p>-Boho&nbsp;ombre &amp; tie dyed linens&nbsp;</p>
<p>-Textural concrete&nbsp;&amp; mud-/plaster-like walls</p>
<p>-Floaty hanging chairs</p>
<p>-Reedy rattan and rope&nbsp;accents</p>
<p>-Organic shaped glass reminicent of water</p>
<p>-Natural fibers:&nbsp; cotton, silk, linen, wool</p>
<p>-Relaxed,&nbsp;loose,&nbsp;slipcovered furnishings</p>
<p>-Low profile beds and seating</p>

        <p>I found some beautiful wood pieces this weekend that have been lovingly restored. This table was made in Japan from American woods, but mysteriously also has a Hawaiian label on it.&nbsp;The lines are simple, but it has intricate inlay and a beautiful birds eye maple center square.</p>
<p><a href="http://sequel.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee8c5958833010537002968970b-pi" style="display: inline; "><img alt="IMG_8704" class="at-xid-6a00e54ee8c5958833010537002968970b" src="http://sequel.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee8c5958833010537002968970b-320wi" /></a></p>
<p>This delicate pattern is engraved along the outer edge of the table top...</p>
<p><a href="http://sequel.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee8c595883301053700298f970b-pi" style="display: inline;"><img alt="IMG_8700" class="at-xid-6a00e54ee8c595883301053700298f970b" src="http://sequel.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee8c595883301053700298f970b-320wi" /></a></p>

<p>And,&nbsp;I&nbsp;picked&nbsp;up&nbsp;this&nbsp;vintage modern Lane&nbsp;coffee&nbsp;table. &nbsp;The contrasting wood colors and shiny metal leg caps make it gleam....</p>

        <p>Last night we watched the French movie <a href="http://www.pricelessmovie.co.uk/" target="_blank">Priceless</a> starring Audrey Tatou, which was a fun, light-hearted flick with AMAZING styling (interiors + wardrobe). &nbsp;It was filmed in luxury hotels in&nbsp;Nice,&nbsp;Cote d'Azur,&nbsp;Biarritz, and&nbsp;Monte Carlo. &nbsp;The interiors were glitzy, yet sophisticated, with refreshing pops of vivid colors (red, aqua, and cobalt) on neutral backdrops, lots of patterns, and a mix of furniture styles. &nbsp;I took pictures of the movie on my TV, so the quality is not so good. &nbsp;I highly recommend you rent the movie if you like what you see here!</p>

<div>My favorite booth was the Natural Curiosities booth which had gorgeous prints of vintage illustrations. &nbsp;They're printed on thick creamy paper, given torn edges and hand worked/stained to have a vintage feel. &nbsp;Pictures do not do this booth justice...</div>
<div><a href="http://sequel.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee8c5958833010535b054f5970c-pi" style="display: inline;"><img alt="2_Lord Bodner&rsquo;s Octopus Study (Triptych)300" class="at-xid-6a00e54ee8c5958833010535b054f5970c" src="http://sequel.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee8c5958833010535b054f5970c-320wi" /></a><a href="http://sequel.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee8c5958833010535a96cfa970b-pi" style="display: inline;"></a></div>
<div>The center of the Natural Curiosities booth was a long table of sparkling gems....</div>

<div>Forgot the name of this booth, but they had gorgeous vintage mirror pieces, like these lights...</div>
<div><a href="http://sequel.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee8c5958833010535b05e7a970c-pi" style="display: inline; color: blue; text-decoration: underline; cursor: pointer; "><img alt="IMG_0089" class="at-xid-6a00e54ee8c5958833010535b05e7a970c" src="http://sequel.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee8c5958833010535b05e7a970c-320wi" style="cursor: pointer !important; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; border-width: initial; border-color: initial; " /></a><a href="http://sequel.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee8c5958833010535b05f3f970c-pi" style="display: inline; color: blue; text-decoration: underline; cursor: pointer; "></a></div>
<div>And, this was part of Bungalow 5's fun display....</div>
<div><a href="http://sequel.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee8c5958833010535b05f3f970c-pi" style="display: inline; color: blue; text-decoration: underline; cursor: pointer; "><img alt="IMG_0086" class="at-xid-6a00e54ee8c5958833010535b05f3f970c" src="http://sequel.typepad.com/.a/6a00e54ee8c5958833010535b05f3f970c-320wi" style="cursor: pointer !important; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; border-width: initial; border-color: initial; " /></a></div>
<div>I'm contemplating a quick trip back to the market on Sunday. &nbsp;There is so much yet to be seen!</div>

        <p>Wow - I've never before seen a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Le_Corbusier" target="_blank">Le Corbusier</a> chair that wasn't covered in leather.&nbsp; I am loving this fresh fabric look from <a href="http://www.idchicago.com">I.D. Chicago</a>.&nbsp; It's light, fluffy, and soft; reminiscent of a cloud.&nbsp; It also has a more relaxed and casual vibe than the popular boxy leather ones.&nbsp; This room is lovely in every way.&nbsp; That tribal rug, the earthy tones, those huge windows...swoon.</p>

        <p>The April issue of <a href="http://www.pointclickhome.com/metropolitan_home" target="_blank">Metropolitan Home </a>arrived in my mailbox yesterday and it's their "Guide To Modern Green Design".&nbsp; I was surprised to read a blurb about what could be America's greenest hotel, the <a href="http://proximityhotel.com/index.html" target="_blank">Proximity Hotel</a>, which happens to be a stone's throw away from me in Greensboro, NC (talk about proximity).&nbsp; Metropolitan Home says "Proximity is striving for LEED Platinum status, which would make it America's greenest (indoor) spot to spend the night.&nbsp; More than 70 sustainable ideas are at work, including rooftop solar panels, an elevator that generates energy for ascent on the descent and the use of geothermal energy for restaurant refrigeration.&nbsp; From $199 per night."&nbsp; <br />I had no idea this environmentally conscious and stylish boutique hotel existed just an hour away from me.&nbsp; I will have to check it out in person sometime very soon.&nbsp; Until then, here are some lovely pictures to enjoy from their website...</p>

        <p>Spring is fast approaching in NC and I couldn't be any happier about it.&nbsp; It was a balmy 70 degrees yesterday and daffodils have started to emerge from the earth (my favorite flower).&nbsp; I'm starting to get that yearning to garden and fix-up my patio.</p>
<p>I came across this glamorous garden in the February issue of <a href="http://www.dominomag.com/" target="_blank">Domino</a> magazine several weeks ago and it has lingered in my mind.&nbsp; It was designed by <a href="http://www.artlunagarden.com/" target="_blank">Art Luna</a> (a hair stylist turned garden designer) for fashion designer Yael Aflalo.&nbsp; Art Luna said "I imagined an old estate inherited by a young, stylish woman".&nbsp; The garden has formality with shaped hedges and 4 statues of muses representing the seasons, yet it is also playful with additions like a swing and mod boxwood circles and balls.&nbsp; What stunned me the most however, is the bold use of large chunks of crystal clusters atop stone pedestals;&nbsp; it's truly unique and the effect is breathtaking.</p>

        <p><a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com" target="_blank">Apartment Therapy</a> is doing a <a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/ny/giveaway/its-bedroom-month-its-our-romantic-bedroom-giveaway-042588" target="_blank">Romantic Bedroom Giveaway</a> this week, so of course I entered (one day I will win something).&nbsp; You have to give a sexy bedroom tip and include a picture of your vision (real or aspirational).&nbsp; Two entries are posted each day on Apartment Therapy and mine is one of them today!&nbsp; I'm blushing that it is there for all to see.&nbsp; It's kind of silly.&nbsp; However, in the spirit of Valentine's day, you can see the entry too right <a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/ny/giveaway/romantic-bedroom-week-sequels-sexy-magenta-tip-042725" target="_blank">here</a>.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The picture I submitted, which is also below, is of a collage I created over a year ago as inspiration for decorating my bedroom.&nbsp; I love this dark magenta color (using it as an accent is my tip).&nbsp; I like it mixed with a lot of neutrals so it's not too overpowering.&nbsp; And, lighter shades, like that light pink paper lantern on the left, help soften the palette.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I'll let you know if I happen to win the prize.&nbsp; And, it's not too late for you to <a href="http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/ny/giveaway/its-bedroom-month-its-our-romantic-bedroom-giveaway-042588" target="_blank">enter</a> too, as the contest is open until noon tomorrow.</p>

        <p>This is perhaps my favorite dining room of all time.&nbsp; I tore this picture out of an <a href="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/" target="_blank">Architectural Digest</a> many years ago.&nbsp; It's from the home of Helena Rubenstein in which she commissioned Salvador Dali to paint a mural for her.&nbsp; This photo shows one of three panels he painted.&nbsp; This interior is just dreamy with the cerulean blue glass, creamy walls, and glamourous lucite chairs (and of course that painting).</p>
<p><a href="http://sequel.typepad.com/.shared/image.html?/photos/uncategorized/2008/01/29/dali_rubenstein030_5.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href, '_blank', 'width=800,height=912,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false"><img alt="Dali_rubenstein030_5" border="0" height="513" src="http://sequel.typepad.com/sequel/images/2008/01/29/dali_rubenstein030_5.jpg" title="Dali_rubenstein030_5" width="450" /></a></p>
<p>Here's what <a href="http://www.architecturaldigest.com/" target="_blank">Architectural Digest</a> had to say about it...</p>

<p>After digging around on the internet, I've found another panel of the mural.&nbsp; But, there's still one missing.&nbsp; Does anyone know where I can find it?</p>
<p><a href="http://sequel.typepad.com/.shared/image.html?/photos/uncategorized/2008/01/29/10008538_2.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href, '_blank', 'width=291,height=303,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0'); return false"><img alt="10008538_2" border="0" height="312" src="http://sequel.typepad.com/sequel/images/2008/01/29/10008538_2.jpg" title="10008538_2" width="300" /></a>&nbsp;</p>
<p>And, for a small fortune ($3200/each) you can buy lucite chairs very similar to the ones that Helena Rubenstein had at <a href="http://www.theparisapartment.com/products-pages/helena_rubenstein_chair.php" target="_blank">The Paris Apartment</a> (the main difference I see is that these do not have the etching that Helena's had).&nbsp; This is a very fun site to explore with lots of glamorous French furnishings.&nbsp; And, they have a <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0060391693/ref=cm_ciu_custimg_item_12/102-3550241-0341733?%5Fencoding=UTF8&amp;v=glance&amp;n=283155" target="_blank">book</a> that looks stunning.&nbsp;</p>
