Our spring issue is blooming with glorious color! 

For those who never really embraced the cooler shades of the color wheel so popular the past several years, you’ll be glad to see jewel tones like orange, red, and green are back. However, that’s not to say neutrals are totally out; they’re just warmer. Think soft browns, earthy grays, creamy whites...

If you have lighter, cooler tones in your home and want to incorporate color, one way is to add bright accent pillows and throws, or even a vibrant bouquet of fresh or faux florals to your decor. Easy as pie!

Two homeowners that have never feared bold hues are furniture designers Roger Hazard and Chris Stout-Hazard of Roger+Chris. As evidence, check out their dynamic lounge makeover in our Double Heart Farm update. 

Colors and patterns abound in Laura Shiffermiller’s downtown condo as well. If you need design inspo this spring, you’ll find it here!

With each season I feel a fresh opportunity to invigorate my main living spaces, always taking into account functionality. I like looking at trends, not because I follow the crowd, but because I enjoy picking up things I can incorporate, creating my own style.

One thing that’s a must for March/April—bringing the outside in. Whether its an arrangement of branches intermixed with florals, a few new house plants, or a bird’s nest display, bring a touch of nature’s wonder into your living spaces.

Wishing you a beautiful spring!
