| decorating Idea using Mixed Media Art |
Moises Esquenazi designed a little L.A. house with a lot of California cool. This bedroom was featured in House Beautiful. You can mix high and low end design resources to copy the look yourself for your own space. I decided my new exuberant mixed media tree art was perfect for the rich colors of this bedroom although it will also complement many decors. I was also able to find many similar home decor items on etsy such as the hot pink shams, plum shams and pink ikat pillows. Etsy seller Rogers Brothers can make you a similar upholstered headboard. Curtains, a lavender throw, cedar stools and an abstract oil painting finish the room. Not shown in the picture, is a blue dresser on the oppostite wall.
Get the look: The master bedroom is dark and cozy, with walls painted in Farrow & Ball Mahogany No. 36. Interior designer Moises Esquenazi designed the mohair velvet headboard; curtains are Donghia's Uma Black Print. Leather Saigon stools are from Bourgeois Bohème. Moroccan rug from Mosaik.

The collage elements are torn pieces of painted pieces of sheet music. The painted piano sheet music represents the bark of birch trees .

The master bedroom of interior designer Moises Esquenazi’s Los Angeles bungalow inspired the selection of all these handcrafted and vintage finds on etsy!

ReplyDeleteHey great idea, to try and imitate the rooms featured in magazines with local and handmade finds from Etsy. It works esthetically and feels good to have something handmade and unique. Thank you so much for featuring my window panel. It's a pleasure to reach your post and will keep coming back for more. :)

What a beautiful room! You did a fantastic job finding substitutes for the originals! I love it! And thank you so much for including my hot pink ikat pillow cover {it's one of my favorites!}.
ReplyDeleteIn this economy our budgets are tighter than ever. It's so wonderful to see we can get that high end look for a fraction of the price.
ReplyDeleteYou've done a wonderful job uncovering beautiful alternates.
Thank you so much for including my sweet Footstool!
