miles of red and Redd


Miles Redd


My last post got me thinking not only about Miles Redd but about red rooms and how I love them.


My own living room is Ralph Lauren riding coat red. And not as dusty as this picture looks!





Red rooms lend themselves to dim, golden light especially if the red has yellow/orange undertones.


This dining room appears to have a red that has blue/purple undertones and is not as pretty in my opinion.


This room in the palace at Versailles is proof that it is not a humble color.


The red room at the White House agrees.
In this Christmastime photo of the White House red room, it reads the orangey red I prefer.
It also seems really Christmas-y.

Syon House

I am in love with this living room and the lambrequins on the window.
The red works so nicely with blue and white and not a bit Christmas-y.

Fantasy Decorator

Now that football season has begun, I hear a great deal about folks' fantasy football team.
I am just not interested enough to play,  make it "fantasy decorator" and I am in!



Who would you choose among the well know designers to create a space for you?


Barbara Barry?


Celerie Kemble?


Suzanne Kasler?


Suzanne Rheinstein?


Tobi Fairley?



Charlotte Moss?


Kelly Wearstler?


Or Miles Redd?

I have left so many out.
The only designer represented twice is my choice.
Can you guess who it is?
Who is your fantasy pick, here or not?
