Small Space Style with Rue

Trudy Crane July 23, 2014

Rue Magazine has featured the fabulous apartment of artist Katie Rodgers and talk about style packed into a small space. Only 500 sq ft and every corner has something interesting to look at! I love the styling of this apartment and the extra little touches, such as the turtle magnifying glass, add an extra personal feeling to the space. So great the extra punch of colour in the bedroom as well. Go visit Rue to see all of the photos...

Inspiration in White: Art Photos

Trudy Crane July 7, 2014

Lately I have been seeing so many homes with great large scale photo art prints and I really love them. I have seen them in the most sophisticated homes and they look really amazing. My daughter is a photographer and she has a great print in her bedroom and I have one in my hallway done by my friend who is a well know fashion photographer. I have been trying to get some of my clients to work in a piece here and there...such a perfect modern look that works in every setting.

Inspiration in White: Removable Wallpaper

Trudy Crane June 23, 2014

This trend of removable wall paper has got me thinking....where can I put some!! I am tired of my bedroom decor and really want a change and I think this may be just the thing that could do it! What is so brilliant is that I can do this and when I am tired of it there is not big problem removing it from the wall. There are so many amazing companies and patterns as well. I absolutely love the one from Anthropologie that is a whole mural...so perfect.

Artful New York Penthouse

Trudy Crane December 19, 2013

This stunning penthouse from Architectural Digest is an amazing home full of beautiful paintings for art lovers. Gorgeous color against a white backdrop, the paintings and scultptures create the feeling of being in an art gallery with the warmth of a modern home. In the entrance is a sculpture garden with an authentic japanese teahouse and an incredible bentwood sculpture. The living room features modern paintings and sculptural furniture while the kitchen is a work of art on its own with bright red laquer cabinets. I just love the lounge that features a Tresserra billiard table with wonderful photography and artwork...really such a perfect mix. This luxurious home really showcases the art within the home but I know that I can take lessons on how to feature the art in my own more humble surroundings to it's best.
