such a great image and use of color..the gray has an amazing warm hue that marries quite well with the floors. i am quite versatile when it comes to design and this photo is such a great example of that:
old world details
modern touches
monochromatic hues
and that warm and inviting wood floor that, to me, grounds the room with a welcoming breath.

yahoo.....makes me want to run with my socks on and slide alllll the way down that beautiful hall!...(sorry, the kid just came out in me)...
laura... that made me laugh... i love your comments...
so may i ask my design expert b-mo...so does this mean i shouldn't paint my floors white?
Great wall color and the eclecticness of it all makes it fun.
Pam...I could totally see white floors here with wood furniture...old and French of course! (would *love* to know what b-mo thinks!)
xo J~
you've hit me right where I love. ha! meant to type 'live' but 'love' fits here. and I don't mean gray. I mean the mixing the 'old world' with the modern pieces. easy to say/hard to do.
I'm trying to get there...
I am with A Perfect Gray! I have been trying so hard to mix in a few mid cent. mod pieces with some of my more traditional items... very hard to succeed... in a decor adore sense that is!!
slip and slide it is. this is why we do no shoes in the house...lots of mid-falling with a glass of vino going on around here.
pam- i am torn on that one. i am going through the same debate with the cabin. i might end up doing 1/2 and 1/2 in the shack. there are some beautiful floors that i hate to paint and then there are the ones that HAVE to be painted due to black tar staining. jury is out. can we do one room at a time?
24- so, b-mo definitely prefers the wood as he can hide his fur balls quite well. he is a real trickster that way. hence my ocd ability...always got the vacuum in hand and when i don't, i get the hairballs mixed up with b-mo..
perfect gray and ivy - me too. striving indeed. my problem is finding the modern pcs that i love at the price i can afford. so, we carry on and keep on searching.
