“Do not let Sunday be taken from you. If your soul has no Sunday, it becomes an orphan.” - Albert Schweitzer Design: @katemarkerinteriors Photo: @stofferphotographyinteriors Architecture: @momentdesign_architecture Build: @mondobuilders A home that feels like a Sunday treat. 🍬 All credit belongs to the team above, so please visit their accounts for more of their work + services + shops. 🤍 @katemarkerinteriors ’s #livinthegreenclient continues to inspire with its mix of modern + warm elements. Lighting to love: @visualcomfort ’s Bistro Tiered Chandelier through the window and @ralphlauren for VC’s Ollie Lantern hanging outside, @kellywearstler for VC’s Strada Chandelier in the dining room, @aerin for VC’s Claribel Large Table Lamp in the living room, @aerin for VC’s Agnes Large Pendants in the kitchen, @suzannekasler for VC’s Soleil Semi-Flush in the pantry (tip on this piece: the small is very small in person, recommend using the medium if the space allows!), @aerin for VC’s Fontaine Vertical Chandelier (note the aged iron finish, as shown here, is the only finish without the textured plaster appearance), and @kellywearstler for VC’s Melange Elongated Pendant down the hallway. Happy Sunday! ✨🤍

Head to the creators listed above for more of their work + services. All credit belongs to them. 🖤🍂 It’s a rainy day at the shop and needless to say, I’d rather be relaxing in a cozy living room, so might as well live vicariously through these beauties we’ve saved throughout the years. 🖤 Lighting to set the mood: @arteriorshome Tilda Large Chandelier (made of wooden dowels & also available in black if you’re bold! And while this piece is only 36”W, note how huge it reads because of how full it is!), @palecekdesign ’s Green Oaks Oversized Pendant, @visualcomfort ’s Alice Sconce + Darlana Two-Tier Chandelier (which appears to have its candle sleeves painted black for a more modern vibe), @curreyco ’s Saxon Chandelier + @troylighting ’s Calabria Table Lamp, @visualcomfort ’s Sommerard Triple Arm Chandelier + Clemente Double Sconce, VC’s Aiden Large Chandelier, @troylighting ’s Sawyer Chandelier, @curreyco ’s Saxon Chandelier + VC’s Dorchester Picture Light + @mymitzi ’s Lupe Table Lamp, @palecekdesign ’s Quinn Chandelier, @curreyco ’s Library Chandelier. Thank you all the creatives above for giving us something to dream about! Let us know what catches your eye below. ✨
“You have to color outside the lines once in a while if you want to make your life a masterpiece.” - Einstein Design: @westofmain Photo: @jptgibsonphotography If you follow @westofmain perhaps you’ve been delighting in all things moody and atmospheric. (I, for one, am savoring every time they release images from their latest projects.) But they also do colorful + bright so beautifully and always appreciate when designers can be flexible in their styles. If you love what you see, head to their account + shop for more. 🌿💛 Lighting to inspire: @suzannekasler for @visualcomfort ’s Morris Lanterns over the island (paired with the since discontinued Right Angle Sconces but try VC’s TT Sconce for similar), @arteriorshome ’s Geoffrey Chandelier in the living room, @visualcomfort ’s Etoile Linear Light in the dining room, @palecekdesign ’s Paloma Coco Chandelier in the primary bedroom (paired with VC’s Fluted Spire Lamps), VC’s Graydon Single Bath Light in the primary bath, VC’s Bryant Sconce in a secondary bath, and VC’s Moravian Star Lanterns in the foyer. Wishing everyone a beautiful evening! 🌿✨
“Tell your story with your whole heart.” - @brenebrown Design + Images: @brepurposed A kitchen that is popping up on our explore page nonstop and for good reason! If you’re feeling stuck with an outdated kitchen, *highly recommend* heading to @brepurposed and her blog on brepurposed.com for the evolution of her 1990s kitchen to the “modern European” style she created. 🍂♥️ She shares her sources, her process, her inspiration (hello, @jeanstofferdesign + @whittneyparkinson 🫡), and tons of amazing storage solutions. Details we’re taking note of: her @ilve_usa range, Sea Pearl Quartzite countertops, custom fluted island, and dark walnut stained cabinetry. As for the lighting, love spying @capitalltg ’s Sedona Pendants over the island (which comes in an 18”W size or a jumbo 28”W version), and she used a local Massachusetts based company for the wall sconces, but for a similar series try JVI Design’s Soho Sconce. It’s evident Bre put her entire heart into making her space soar. Thank you for inspiring us down here @brepurposed ! ♥️
“Stay close to people who feel like sunshine.” 💛 Design: @jlv_creative Photo: @air_design_photography Build: @novella.homes Architecture: @cobb_architects Long weeks call for homes that feel like a breath of fresh air. Love what you see? All credit belongs to the talented team above, so head to their accounts for more of their work + services. 🤍 (In love with @jlv_creative ’s latest home that they’ve been sharing on their feed, so highly recommend checking them out!) As for this Daniel Island, South Carolina home, there are so many lighting fixtures that I keep returning to. Read on if you’re curious to know more! They used @kellywearstler for @visualcomfort ’s Melange Elongated Sconce + VC’s Cabinet Maker’s Picture Light in the primary bath, VC’s Clemente Double Sconce in the work space, @suzannekasler for VC’s Elliot Grande Pendant over the kitchen island (even though this piece is a whopping 30”W it works over decent sized kitchen islands because it’s only 11.75”H), @arteriorshome ’s Pismo Pendant in the breakfast nook (and just beyond you can spot @minka_aire ’s Simple Fan in coal), @julieneilldesigns for VC’s Talia Large Chandelier in the formal living room, and VC Studio’s Brianna Sconce in the secondary bath. Let us know below what catches your eye! ✨
“Always be a first rate version of yourself and not a second rate version of someone else.” - Judy Garland Design + Images: @annakingandco Found myself going down the rabbit hole of @annakingandco ’s account this morning and suggest you do too! 🤍 She’s a designer, stylist, and photographer based in Atlanta who created so many effortlessly beautiful moments in her home. (I’ve been noticing more and more stone backsplashes, and love the look of hers here.) Lighting to love: @curreyco ’s Basket Pendants (in a natural rattan weave) over the kitchen island, @curreyco ’s Admiral Pendants in the pantry (it’s hard to tell in images but it’s a hand-finished copper dome with antique brass hardware), @curreyco ’s Saxon Chandelier in the living room, and @thecoppersmithlighting ’s Somerset Lantern on the exterior (I’m guessing these were the antique copper - note the look of how copper patinas over time). Thank you for inspiring us down here in Texas @annakingandco !

All credit belongs to the creators above. Head to their accounts for more of their work + services + shops. 🪄 Bad weather always has me longing for a beautiful mudroom situation (especially with a decorative light!) (bonus points if there’s venting on the cabinetry!), and who best to turn to than the folks in Utah and friends in the Midwest and Northeast? Lighting to inspire: @visualcomfort ’s 18” Cabinet Maker’s Picture Light + Darlana Lantern, @bobointriguingobjects ’s Industrial Pendant, @visualcomfort ’s Henry Industrial Hanging Shade + @arteriorshome ’s Parrish Sconce (now only available in brass), VC’s Eugene Pendant, @hudsonvalleylighting ’s Plaster No.1 Pendant (shown in the kitchen beyond but would also look fabulous in a mudroom), @reginaandrewdetroit ’s Surfside Semi-Flush (made of wood in an ebony finish!), VC Studio’s Helios Semi-Flush, VC’s Morris Lantern + Toulon Table Lamps, VC’s Cabinet Maker’s Picture Light, and VC’s Soleil Semi-Flush. Thanks to the teams above for inspiring! Let us know below, would you budget for a decorative lighting in your mudroom?
“When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.” - Henry Ford Design + Images: Anthology Creative Studio It’s been a long day for Houston and southeast Texas. Tornadoes, flooding, power outages, freeway closures. Keep our part of the world in your prayers. 🤍 A quietly moving account worth exploring is @ anthology_creative_studio. Their work makes me do a double take and wonder if I’m looking at a render or real life. Always admiring how they use natural materials in a chic and sophisticated way and taking note of how they eschew traditional chandeliers over dining tables and instead opt for two pendants. Lighting to inspire: @visualcomfort ’s Westport Hanging Shade in the first living room, @palecekdesign ’s Coco Magnolia Chandeliers over a dining table, @kellywearstler for VC’s Verso Chandelier in a living room and her Melange Pill Form Sconces flanking a tub, @palecekdesign ’s Veranda Woven Pendants over the banquette, @hinkleylighting ’s Somerset Pendants over the island + @mymitzi ’s Holly Picture Light in the kitchen, and @mymitzi ’s Kiki Pendants over the last dining table. Thanks to Anthology Creative Studio for providing a moment of calm in an otherwise stormy day. 🤍
“The two most important days in life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.” - Mark Twain Design: @the_fox_group_ Cabinetry: @cscabinetry Photo: @scottdavisphoto The best homes (and social media accounts…) are the ones you can return to for their creativity and wisdom, whether their designs are answering storage solutions or you see a novel use of materials. @the_fox_group_ is one such account whose work (+ words) is always a good idea to turn to for inspiration. Visit their account, website, and shop for more of their work and services. 🤍 All credit for this beauty belongs to them. 🤍 Lighting takeaways: don’t be afraid to use sconces + hanging fixtures to punctuate a long hallway, yes chandeliers can work over kitchen islands, and picture lights don’t have to be reserved for framed artwork! Pieces we’re inspired by: @visualcomfort ’s Hulton Sconces + Morris Lanterns down the foyer hallway, VC’s Holborn Lanterns in the mudroom, VC’s Classic Ring Chandeliers in the kitchen, VC’s Dorchester Picture Lights over the children’s work station, VC’s Boston Functional Single Arm Light in the pantry, VC’s Claret Tail Sconce in the bathroom, VC’s Jacqueline Chandelier (which comes with an option of clear or white beads) and Camille Sconces in the closet, VC’s Soleil Semi-Flush in the mudroom, and VC’s Hulton Sconces + @hudsonvalleylighting ’s Allendale Chandelier in the foyer. Let us know what resonates with you! 💫
“The darkest nights produce the brightest stars.” - John Green Design: @designshopinteriors Photo: @stephaniecrusso A beautiful account + shop to explore if you haven’t already is @designshopinteriors . 🖤 Darker wood tones, lots of natural light, and unlacquered brass accents take center stage. Key lighting takeaways: don’t be afraid of using a picture light in a kitchen, in this case @visualcomfort ’s Cabinet Maker series, and brass dome pendants are as effortless + cool ever. This particular series, @visualcomfort ’s Eugene, comes with an unexpectedly chic canopy whose smaller than standard size creates a beautiful tension with the industrial dome shade and exposed socket. (Now if only VC would release the dome in larger, overscale diameters, just saying…) Thank you @designshopinteriors + @stephaniecrusso for continuing to inspire! 🖤
Feed your dreams, starve your doubt. 🖤 Build + Video: @aft_construction Interiors: @thelifestyledco @kristenforgione @misskylieray Architecture: @cwarchitecture Photo: @jessefitton It’s not that I want to stay in bed but…if there were a primary suite worth lingering in this Monday morning, it would be this one by our friends @aft_construction with dreamy photos by @jessefitton . All credit belongs to the team above, so please check out their accounts for their work + services. Some lighting inspiration to get the week started: @mymitzi ’s Miley sconces (used without the bottom finial) and what looks like @visualcomfort ’s Goodman pendants customized with chain in the bathroom (other fun pendant options would be @hudsonvalleylighting ’s Kyle pendant or their Altamont pendant) and @curreyco ’s Danielli Chandelier + @kellywearstler for @visualcomfort Studio’s Nodes Large Pivot Sconce. Let us know your favorite feature below! 🖤
