Color has such a profound effect on me at this time of year. Where I am in the world, January has been long and dark, and though everyone will tell you I'm an inherently 'beige' person in real life, I can't help but find myself lingering over images of brightly-colored rooms, even outfits in unexpectedly vibrant hues that would totally disturb the rest of my closet. I almost bought a pastel lavender-colored cardigan the other day — February can't come soon enough.
But color isn't where my February ruminations end. I'm in a project state of mind, now truly free from the 'do not disturb' sign that hangs, metaphorically, on the house during the entertaining season. For some, it's a small project on the books, for myself, a bedroom and bathroom revamp is looking most likely for 2025. Even before we head into 'design season' properly, where the world's annual design festivals take place, there's lots that's new and exciting right now, from materials to collection launches, that is feeding the renovation beast.
