I was flipping through the French magazine Maison Cote Sud and I came across some gorgeous pictures of homes/rooms in Provence. As you all know, this magazine has been around for twelve years and pays tribute to the Mediterranean and Provence region. It has been said that the contributors are among the most important photographers and interior designers around.
My husband was laughing and shaking his head while he watched me sigh and giggle at every picture. He said, "You're obsessed..." I absolutely agree!

What a gorgeous door; I'm curious if that is Bouvet hardware?

Can I just live here forever?! The pale matt tones of the Provencial/Gustavian elements create the most perfect and restful mood. I love this room.
One word of advice... If it's in your budget, the smartest thing you can do is to invest in a French vintage chandelier. Everyday it will bring you happiness and joy!

So elegant and rich. Those rich colors together are beautiful.

The perfect office space, and that table with those cabinets...

Have you noticed how the French are able to perfectly combine unexpected elements that create soothing and beautiful rooms? It's the unexpected I like; they are true artisans.

Old planked floors combined with industrial shelving and Belgian linen...Sigh

Notice the funny sconce on the wall. Someone thought..."That's cool, I'm going to make it work."
Job well done!

I have a huge obsession right now with lanterns and vintage chandeliers! Coupled, they create so much interest.

The rock is the perfect back drop for the soft linen bed. Are those barrels as bedside furniture pieces? Once again... totally unexpected, but I love!

The editor in Chief of Cote Sud said, "'The good life' comes easy in Provence; it charms, captivates and inspires, not only by its traditions and culture but also by its rich colours and extraordinary quality of light. We have discovered their interiors, beautifully restored, reinterpreted and imbued with new life.
It is a region of diversity and surprises, enchanting in its simple, intimate charm."
I am leaving to Newport Beach, California and won't be blogging for a week. I look forward to blogging about all of my favorite shops and homes. Hope you come back next week and check it out!
