October 15th, 2014

“Casual” and “family” were the two keywords that drove the design of this great room in a new west Michigan home.

A Place for Everything: Beautiful Ways to Style Your Table

October 13th, 2014

For ages we have been coming together around a table to eat, drink and be merry. As our culture has evolved, so has the art of setting the table for entertaining. In the medieval times of kings, queens and knights, where someone sat in relation to the salt cellar on the table indicated social standing, and people brought their own spoons and knives to dinner.

Because purple is made by mixing red and blue, it can read as either cool or warm, which makes it a surprisingly versatile hue … but that also means it can be challenging to decorate around. If you’ve been struggling to work your purple wall color ...
