Copper brings such warmth to a space. For a long time, I was a silver kinda gal. It took me a while to appreciate gold. Now I'm finding myself falling for copper. Maybe because copper's warm tones remind me of autumn leaves, or maybe because it is just a little something different. In any case, there are some wonderful stylish copper designs out there now, and I'm enjoying seeing them. I'm especially enamored by Tom Dixon's copper pendant light (top image). I would love to have one in the Dream House, maybe in the kitchen. What do you think? Are you into the copper trend?

kitchen with a view


The lovely leafy view from the wrap-around windows in this kitchen amazes me! Not only does this kitchen have a tree-house-like feel to it, would you look at those gorgeous black pendant lights? I'm in love with them. And I also love the subtle soft color of the wood, the island's massive cutting board counter top, and the deep concrete sink. This is rustic chic at its absolute best.

B&W kitchen accents
















Black and white is a look I always find works well in a kitchen. The freshness of white cabinets juxtaposed with bold black accents never fails to look chic.


kitchen drama









I'm loving the look of black pendant lights hung over an island or table, in a white kitchen. The black shade against white is such a striking contrast. What a great way to glam up the kitchen!
