Pops of color in navy or coral

Classic forms with contemporary elements
Warm colors, layering fabrics, floral wallpaper, deep rich jewel tones balanced with softer whites, classic lines
Accessorize with pattern on pattern, velvet, oriental rugs
4. Organic Modern
A blend of simple and natural elements through texture, wood, and reclaimed and handmade accessories
Natural leathers in camel and warmer shades
Colors in simple greens and blues
