I am enjoying the beautiful weather and scenery of California. I spent the weekend at the Venice Garden & Home Tour. Here is a sample of the beautiful interiors. The designers are always thinking outside the proverbial box… I love this tour!!

The window centered above this bookcase creates a “painting” to the outside.

This home had a nice balance of colors with white walls, white floors,white counters, white upholstery and natural finished woods in the furniture, frames and cabinets.

In this room note the combination of bright colors contrasting with white traditional arts and crafts panels.

The bright accent color is also used in the skylight above the shower.

There are so many creative and inventive ideas throughout this tour. The lighting coming through this interior space creates a fantastic collection of spots.

I love the use of indoor outdoor spaces in so many of the homes.

This breakfast room has a glass floor and glass walls that flow into a private garden courtyard!
