casual elegance...

This house was featured in the September issue of House Beautiful, the bedroom that I posted last night is in this house. I love how elegantly casual it is, even the silk taffeta draperies have such an understated sophistication. Usually I like a little more color in my house, but if it were to go "neutral" I think this is the way to do it!I want a corner like this! I love those botanical prints on the wall framed by the rustic iron sconces. Oh, and that clear glass lamp with the brown shade is to die for!
I love how the curtains gracefully sweep the floor without too much puddling. I also think that oversized chandelier is fantastic.
I love cute nooks and window seats!
This is my favorite picture, I think this really sums up the idea of the elegant but casual decor in this house.
I love how the family room looks so effortless.
Slightly different from the rest of the house, but I love those brick floors!
This is such an adorable girls room. I want that chandelier. Enough said.
