Apartment Therapy Inspiration

I spent a little time this evening browsing Apartment Therapy’s House Tours.  I found some really cool images.  Great inspiration for the direction I want to go with my own home.

I love the colors, messiness of the pictures and books, and the lamp.

Love the bright colors, messiness of the books, and even the bright green paint on the walls (although I don’t think I could actually live with that color on my own walls).

I love the white with the bright colors.  I’m trying to decide if I could live with nearly white walls or if it feel too “sterile.”

Love the colors and pattern on the Suzani pillow.

Love the messiness of the pictures on the wall and the bright colors.

I like how the bright colors and modern accents accompany the traditional elements that are also present. 

Overall, I’m drawn to bright colors, messy wall arrangements, messy book arrangements, and white/light/bright walls.  I’m trying to decide if I can live with these elements in my own home.  Also, how can I incorporate them into a traditional home with little architectural interest of its own?  I’ll have to think on that one…
