1. It’s HIP...
Decorating trendsetters are shaking things up for 2016!
The vision is not the plush opulence of over the top excess
(think Casa Casuarina – the late Gianni Versace’s Miami home),
nor the stark less-is-more minimalist aesthetic – like Japanese
décor. Today’s contemporary trend takes ideas from both,
translated by sleek lines and perfect angles.

POOLSIDE MEDIA ROOM
When filling an open space this large, the key is to have the décor soften
the strong lines of the architecture. The chaises by the pool are perfect for
watching the sunset. The accent wall in marigold warms the entire room.
You’re going to miss your favorite show, because there’s a good chance
that the TV will be watching you snuggled on this couch or re-imagined
day bed. The black window sashes (the vertical and horizontal frames
that hold the glass) on the window wall echo the black lines of the
graphic wall. The room’s accents are the hot, new, versatile color in
decorating – “greige” - grayish brown (or is it brownish gray?).

2. GREAT ROOM BATHROOM
The one-two punch of clever subtlety is what makes this room so
beautiful. From every focal point, take a close look at how angles
dominate. Multi hues of blue and cream on the columns and
backsplash bring it all together. A stunning statement fireplace is
another main attraction with furniture placement to make it the star.
Old meets new! This new take on a vintage tub is meant for
a long relaxing soak. It’s deliberately placed against a wall
intentionally finished to look rough and rustic. With blue being
the color of the moment (any shade will do), the cornflower
accent wall holds very modern accoutrements. Non-traditional
cabinets and sink give edginess to the room.

3. Uber hot for 2016 is the return of the formal dining room. Savvy
home decorators are ditching the once-popular notion of turning the
dining room into a work or play space. This example is one to save.
The perfectly placed wooden angles on the custom floor, take your
eye to the wood-accented kitchen. Look up! The unique statement
light continues the sleek, one-of-a-kind appeal.
