KEEP IT LIGHT

Light finishes can bring a casual, airy feel to a space. There are some wonderful furniture treatments being done, where cerused woods, white washed finishes and rubbed paint are being used. The result are pieces that offer a lightness that can transform surroundings from dark and broody to crisp and fresh. Even a single piece in a cerused finish can elevate a dark setting. There are so many great choices right now- from Axel Vervoordt-inspired furnishings to Swedish Gustavian. Take your pick and mix it in.

I can't get enough of the Piedmont collection from Bungalow 5. The sleek lines and retro feel are great for a classic bedroom or as a sofa side table.
