Nate Berkus' Home

Whilst bloggin around, I came across some photos of the Apartment of Nate Berkus, whom I wrote about the other day. I was a little surprised at how neutral it was... for some reason I have this notion that all decorator's homes are gonna be completely outlandish and completely DECORATED. I think this home looks completely comfortable, and looks like it's lived in, nevermind, completely attainable

Love the worn patina of the dresser/entry console

The wall treatment has leather inserts... I love how he's going for the old worn, lived-in home thing.

What could be a better decor accessory than books??

While I typically enjoy an island, I like that he's working without one here.

I heart this dining room. So simple, and I like that despite the fact he COULD fit a dozen chairs, but has kept it simple with just the four.

His home office is totally chic, but completely not practical for me, I have too much clutter for such an open area!

A perfect masculine bedroom that does not scream bachelor!

What gal wouldn't love a closet like this?? Look at the space for the shoes!

Campy & Whimsical

I recently came across picstures of Gwenyth Paltrow's home from and old issue of Home & Garden Magazine, as have to say I was a little surprised.

The interior was not at all what I expected for a married gal with two kids. While I liked it, I expected something a little more grown-up and elegant. Her casa reminds me more of something I would have enjoyed when I was a single gal.

It's also incredibly feminine, and very POP-ARTY!! However, I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to get my hands on this beautiful dining room chandelier!!!
