Contemporary With a Kick

Recently I’ve been most enamored with the types of spaces that are able to take a simplistic modern aesthetic and add life to its stark edges.  Though I appreciate modernism at it’s most extreme form, I think that living spaces should have a feeling of life to them that keeps them welcoming and comfortable. This apartment may be one of my absolute favorites I’ve shared in my Monday series – I could live here in a heartbeat. It’s just got a kick to it that feels so inviting!

Now here’s an equation I’m not confused about: marble tulip table + wicker chairs = yes.

Can you see why I’m head-over-heels about this place? It’s got color, it’s got life, and it’s got nods to both classical and contemporary schools of thought – what a great résumé!
