Have I told you lately how much I love Pinterest? I always manage to find some time in the evenings to pin new things and draw inspiration for myself there. Oftentimes, blog posts are born from the common threads that I notice in my recent pins. Pinterest is amazing for a few more reasons: I have been hired for local design jobs because of my Pinterest profile (be sure to utilize this powerful tool to its potential!); Last week, I reached 120,000 followers on Pinterest, so a big thank you to all of you who follow me there; and lastly, I love coming across inspiring new images, especially from designers I wasn’t previously familiar with. After nearly seven years of blogging, that is a rare and wonderful thing!
This weekend, I came a cross an image of an interesting roman shade treatment and when I clicked through, I was treated to the beautiful portfolio of Laura Tutun. Tutun is based in Rye, New York and founded her design firm in 2005 after working as Director of Product Development for Ralph Lauren Home for ten years. I was immediately drawn to her work because our tastes are so similar. I gravitate towards similar color palettes—soothing grays, rich browns, metallic accents, and pops of color. Her style is a great mix of traditional silhouettes with modern accents. I love that she can mix various styles and periods in a single room and have it come together so perfectly. I am especially enamored with the fact that she always seems to add at least one bold element in a room whether it’s a stunning chinoiserie accent wall, a beautiful window treatment, or a chic lighting fixture. I look forward to seeing more work from Tutun in the years to come. Until then, I will draw inspiration from these beautiful images of her past projects.

The Chinoiserie wallpapered accent wall is divine, the furniture pieces are each quite interesting, and the roman shades and bedding are at once classic and modern. |  Image by Jane Beiles}

I love that she paired such a traditional dining table and chairs with a modern, edgy chandelier and rug. | Image by Jane Beiles}

laura tutun16{This kitchen, which appears to be in a pool house, feels very in line with the “safari chic” Ralph Lauren lifestyle. It’s clean and sleek with a few warm, organic accents like the wood and nickel hurricanes on the counter, the chandelier overhead, and the baskets in the corner. | Image by Jane Beiles}

laura tutu17 {Tutun and I also seem to share a love of Greek Key which she expresses through a graphic rug in this office area along with a custom Greek Key roman shade—yet another amazing window treatment! | Image by Jane Beiles}
 
I couldn’t help but share so many beautiful images from Tutun’s  fantastic portfolio as each space was even better than the last. Which of these rooms is your favorite?
