good design

  Anna had an old wooden table converted into a fresh-looking double vanity. She purchased the two mirrors from a local salvage store. "I stumbled across them and loved them and thought, 'Wouldn't they look great as my bathroom mirrors.' I like that they don't match.' The white subway wall tiles and hexagonal floor tiles are in keeping with the Art Deco era of the bungalow.
  TOP LEFT AND RIGHT: Anna's son, Harry, accompanies her on excursions to antique markets and chooses one item each trip, which are displayed on the plate rail running the perimeter of his room. The oversized galvanized pendant hits a slightly unexpected note, while striped cushions on the settee are a perfect choice for a young boy's room. The mouldings and ceiling medallion are original to the house. Artwork by David Bromley. ABOVE: Mismatched sorbet-coloured teacups and saucers, and a blue and white creamer link to the artwork. TOP RIGHT: A whitewashed table from a flea market is topped with antiques and statement art. LEFT: The vintage Italian toleware chandelier was purchased on eBay and punched up with black and white gingham shades with pink bobble trim. Hot pink stools provide an upbeat contrast to the kitchen's white Carrara marble island. BOTTOM LEFT: Trellis-print wallpaper by Kelly Wearstler in Anna's office makes it a cosy room in which to work. A flea-market lamp was updated with a custom shade. BOTTOM RIGHT: The carved-wood bird lamps were an inexpensive find. Their shades are pink and white gingham fabric with black bobble trim. The bedspread is a French matelasse from Anna's firm, Black & Spiro Interior Design. Artwork„ Baby Love 3 by Jane Cremorne.
