I HE(ART) DESIGN: Happy Nude Year!

Happy New Year everybody! It’s Lynnette from The It Girl Project with a beautiful peaceful bedroom to start of a new year in a relaxed frame of mind. I’ve always loved this bedroom (which belongs to Domino’s one-time Style Editor Dara Caponigro and was featured in the book Domino: The Book of Decorating.

See that great sketch of a nude to the left of the bed...

 I have for years had this type of art in the back of my mind as something I’d love to find a place for in my own home. There’s an ease to it that is relaxing, but elegant and timeless – it is both modern and ancient and I love things that feel like that are perfectly in place now as they could be in a room in another time and place. So recently I spied this pair of sketches called “Spa Day” at Zgallerie – an amazing deal! 
Around these, I’ve designed a bedroom with a touch of modern, a touch of industrial influence and of course a touch of plush – a bedroom should always feel slightly indulgent.

Dearest Ashlina,

For me the nude paintings are the best and from the two, I love the left one even more so...
Just my idea!
Love to you,
Mariette

I love the nude sketches from Z Gallerie. I know Ashlina featured one recently on her blog and it was beautiful. There is something so serene about these sketches.

Can you explain how the curtain rods are hung?

Can you explain how those curtain rods are hung from the ceiling? It's hard to see them.
