Subtle is the New Bold

Sometimes you want to be subtle. Other times you want to be bold. In this case it’s both. The original guest room was painted in SW Florida’s standard middle tone beige harkening back to our prior everything had to be Kilim Beige or Latte Beige days. The home owners wanted to brighten up the small guest room and create a more modern statement without going overboard. So, the dark brown weave curtains were ripped down. The palm tree comforter was tossed. The dark heavy brown bamboo headboard was removed. They opted instead for no headboard at all and let the off -white stripes create the backdrop for their favorite stripe comforter. The room is brighter, modern, and uniquely subtly bold…or boldly subtle.
