I Am Drawn To This Color Palette
Last week of summer for my children. Next week we are all back to packing nutritious lunch boxes and giving bear hugs at the school bus stop. I am not quite ready for fall yet but I saw these images somewhere and I could not get them out of my mind. Luckily I came across them again today.
Not necessarily rich and deep fall colors but summer-fall transitional colors, perhaps. I really like the combination of the white mixed with the soft and muted grays, blues and mellow golds. It feels like a cocoon and is very inviting to me. A tweaked color palette in a very subtle way. I like it a lot.
The talented Australian design team, Gardener and Marks, are behind these rooms.
They are also behind this wonderful room which has been making its rounds in blog land. I can almost feel that last summer breeze coming through the open windows. Sigh. 
Happy new week to you all. Treasure those last summer moments!

I love the subtle palette with a touch of soft blue and gray. It is very cozy and sophisticated at the same time. Here in Florida, I will be enjoying summer a bit longer. Have a wonderful week.
Best, Victoria

Monika, we agree! The soft muted colors with the richness of the gold and blue velvet is beautiful. We are loving the gold and have been looking for the perfect shade of gold velvet for throw pillows. Too funny! Enjoy your last week of summer vacation!
Hugs,
Angela and Renee

It is like someone took the bright colors of summer and added mud to gray them down a bit for fall…..so pretty. I am not ready for fall….but am getting tired of the temps being in the 90′s!

i love this palette too, warm and earthy. i needed this today as i plan to make some progress with my re-styling here. i’ve put it off as we are still toiling away on the renovation downstairs! in the meantime, the upstairs has been neglected and looks sad.
so thanks, lovely lady! i so love your taste in everything.

I love the punch
of blue, which is
exactly the punctuation
mark that I’d choose
with this combo. Your
inspiration photo is
amazing, Monika!
