Indoor/Outdoor Living

Lately I have been so inspired by the thought of indoor/outdoor living.

So I wanted to share with you some great spaces that I have come across.

Outdoor Patio

I love how the furniture is set up here, it creates a great space for lounging and entertaining.

Doors & Large Windows 

Once these doors are open, it doubles your living space.

How beautiful is this!?

You truly feel, one with nature in this home.

I love the open kitchen concept here.

These garage style doors- are a neat, industrial architectural element to add.

 

Indoor/Outdoor Bathrooms

This bathroom has so many things going for it.

Rustic elements with the vanity

Industrial concrete flooring

Reclaimed wood for the open shower

I love it all!

Again! How can you not just die for this bathroom!

It would be so relaxing to have a soak in that lovely tub.

Completely Outdoors

 

I almost have no words for the gorgeous home.

It is completely immersed in nature.

What a beautiful retreat.

City & Suburban Living

Even if you live in the city, there are ways to create indoor/outdoor living.

This picture really showcases that.

 

They have done a wonderful job creating a lovely outdoor living space.

So comfortable for entertaining.

I hope these spaces inspire you as well. Especially, as the weather starts to warm up. What better way to spend your time- than to be outdoors with the ones you love.

Martini’s Please!

Let’s start the celebration at home! -Having an in home bar is a great way to do that.

Organization is Key

 

I love that there is a place for everything. This would work perfectly in a dining room.

Out of the Ordinary

Using an armoire is a great way to keep things trucked away and this piece will really make a statement.

Great use of this trunk (and look... Ghost Chairs!)

Bar Carts

Bar carts don't take up much space and are mobile. 

Keep it Simple

Put everything on a tray.

Outdoor Spaces

Summertime screams lemonade, barbeques and gathering with friends. So why don’t you make a batch and start entertaining.

Creating a fun outdoor space is easy. You just have to decide what type of space you want.

Create an entire “living room” outside

This space has a sofa, side chairs, end tables, lamps, even a rug. And this over-size mirror really helps define the “room”

“Lounge-y Living Room”

Outdoor Dining

This is the perfect way to entertain during the summer months.

I love these large, rustic wooden tables, and check out the lighting above!

Keep the tablescapes light and simple

Pops of Color

Make your outdoor space exciting and vibrant with lots of color.

Use pillows, rugs, lamps and blankets to accent your space with bright shades.

Small Patio
Keep the same ideas in mind, but use properly scaled furniture like a café table for two.

Happy Entertaining!
