Love the wall color. Did you paint the walls and trim the same color?

In reply to Kelly. You put into words exactly how I felt when I saw the Katie Gong piece.

This a gorgeous. I never knew I had a dream style but Parisian + NorCal is it. If you had a blog I would follow it for the next few decades and see how your style evolved. I have pets and toddlers so ceramics on low shelves are not for me but the inspiration is lovely.

This is so beautiful! So bright, stylish, but uniquely you. The art, the custom bench and your DIY’s really personalize the space and make it super special. And that gallery wall is serious #goals. I’d say worth the 18 months for sure!! Looking forward to seeing the rest!!

I love it! Can we see a floor plan? We are planning a small MIL apartment and I’d love to see how yours is laid out.

This is really special! Our brains have a bit of a negativity bias, often clinging to negative feedback, while failing to emphasize the positive. I hope you can soak up the love in these comments! This is a space that stands out as completely unique. It’s not even my style and I LOVE IT! xoxoxo

In reply to Sarah. I've come to the conclusion that there is no way to design a functional/beautiful shelf with a hodgepodge of books. I've searched everywhere for inspiration to no avail. There's something about the color coding of books that gets on my nerves, and I rush to moral judgement whenever I spy hidden spines. I wish publishers would adhere to a universal spine design. For now, my compromise is a styled center bookcase (in a wall of 5) where form is prioritized over function. It gives my eyes a place to rest among the chaos of the books I love and use. I wonder if this approach might help if applied to a shelf or two in a single bookcase. EHD team- am I wrong? Is there some magic that I'm missing?

The room looks gorgeous and that custom bench is brilliant. PLEASE put some sort of wood sealer on the bench. If you ever get dirt or grease or anything on the raw wood it would be ruined. You can get sealers now that are matte and crystal clear to keep this same look forever or penetrating sealers that still allow the wood to age naturally, if that’s what you want.
