Ana Antunes -- Interior Designer

Image
Ana Antunes is an interior designer and television producer.  For years she produced the only home design/makeover show in Portugal.  While producing, she started stepping in as a regular designer on the show and now has her own interior design business.  I found her incredibly fabulous work on a blog (can't remember which) and I'm so happy I did.  It's very interesting and inspiring to see what talented designers outside the US are doing.   This beautiful table image is from a Christmas photo shoot she did for a magazine in Portugal. This fantastic room and all of the below images are from a project she did in July for her TV show. What do you think?  I'm crazy for her brilliant use of color.  She has such a clean look, doesn't she?  I'll be sharing more of Ana's work as it's too gorgeous to keep to myself!

Holiday Design with Blue and White

This is my favorite time of year.  I love getting out all of our Christmas decorations and getting the house ready for the season.  I also love looking at magazines and photos showing beautiful holiday decor.  How fun for me to get to combine that with my blue and white obsession and share these lovely images!

With many of us having Thanksgiving dinner this Thursday, I chose to feature blue and white on the table.  Do you have a favorite photo?  The gorgeous reds, pinks and blues in this first one make it my favorite.  Enjoy! from Alberto Pinto's Table Settings from Alberto Pinto's  Table Settings from Carolyne Roehm's  A Passion for Blue and White From Alberto Pinto's Table Settings From Joe Nye's Flair The above 5 images are from Carolyne Roehm's A Passion for Blue and White

 Emerald Green is everywhere, and I'm obsessed.  I'd love more of it at home.  Besides gorgeous interiors on which to feast your eyes, I've added some lovely green accessories and art available for purchase.  Thoughts?  Are you a fan of this trendy but timeless shade?
