Fresh out from Chicago

Every Summer, Interior Designers flock to the windy city to see the latest and greatest in commercial design (and a little in residential too!)  And yours truly got a chance to take it all in..yay!  Chicago is one of my favorite cities and I was thrilled to be there during the work week too!

So this years "in-style" is pretty much summed up by everything old is new again. The first Trend that was pretty much everywhere is wool upholstery in solid colors







The second Commercial Trend is the idea of private spaces within some not so private places.  These booths are made out of a felt-like material that masks sound pretty well, although the fabric pattern is very scary to me...maybe in a guys room????







Of course Hex's are all the rage...again.  And ya'll know how much I love that!



Color is pretty happening too.  Taking something classic with a new twist and pop of color.






 


And of course I had to pop into the Tile and Bath showrooms.....pure love!


How Gorg is this Kohler ped sink!??!?!?! Urban yet classic

Mid Century sink in a very Men's Club kind of way

Mirrored Tile....I die.



So what does this mean for the residential market and your house your asking?
