A Tour and a Bijou Room

A quick tour of a home desiged by Redmond Aldrich
-aka Chloe Warner-
Domino pegged her style as 'sophisticated frou frou' and if this is what she's selling, I'm buying.
Take a look at this San Fransisco home; her latest project to be posted.








This home perfectly illustrates that a creamy neutral palate is timeless and there is elegance in simplicity.

Using this space as inspiration, I came up with a design for my sister's foyer.
Her new home has a sweet little vestibule when you come in through the front door that is just crying for a little special.

And with that, I'm off to enjoy my last day in Chicago.
Hoping you've all had a fabulous holiday weekend.

    I love the yellow couch and those bookshelves. Every room has something I like. And the foyer for your sister is beautiful. I love the wallpaper!

    I could never call her work 'frou frou'. I hope to see your sister's foyer as I'm sure she will love your design.


    Enjoy Chicago!
