to my most asked question. “What color should I use to paint my______room?”. Well, my go to inspiration that works every time…for any room…in any style…in any part of the country… is a simple kraft paper bag. That’s it. Simple. Have it color matched at your favorite paint supplier in your choice of finish and it will transform your space magically. I know it will work for you and I haven’t even seen your space…this solution is THAT good. Deep enough to be dramatic yet not so deep as to be viewed as ” too dark”, and the perfect neutral to compliment ANY color on the color wheel. Any.
Looking for a neutral that might be more modern? Pick up a stone, drop it in that bag and take that to the paint store for a color match. Bingo! Another successful choice.
Add a great textured linen (see the neutral thing happening here?) like Calvin Fabrics ECO Linen #8384 and you my friend are on your way.

Nothing says simple…quiet…modern like the c 24 wishbone chair by Hans Wegner. The appeal has stayed the same since it’s introduction in 1949. Of the seemingly endless number of painted and stained finishes available today, this soaped oak with the natural woven paper seat is my hands down choice. Perfect used singly as the occasional pull up, I have my eyes set on a group for dining on this enclosed porch…simple table TBD. wegnerwishbonechair.com has anything and everything you could need to know about the c 2

Simple …quiet…modern. That’s what I like. Whether it’s architecture and design, fashion or food, you can never go wrong with a choice that is simple..quiet…modern.
A gift recieved this Christmas illustrates this point perfectly. A box. An egg. Bronze. Matte exterior. Polished interior. Simple. Elegant. Useful. Beautiful. Classic.
