[4 Interior trends you can easily blend into your

[4 Interior trends you can easily blend into your home]⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
• COLORFUL BATHROOMS⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you were a kid in the 70s or in the 80s you probably grew up having a colorful bathroom at home. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Mine, for example, was white and blue and I still remember the beautiful blue tiles covering the walls: their texture resembled the sand ripples on a beach.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Colorful bathrooms practically disappeared after the 80s but today we see a modern reinterpretation of the concept.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The use of color is carefully considered yet somehow braver than in the past (just think about neon pops of color). And the good news is that those colorful editions are becoming more widely available meaning the costs are coming down over time.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Head over the blog and discover more about this and other 3 trends. Link in bio 👆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Trust the process.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Be willing to change your plans and direction. Be open to embrace other options: in interiors as well as in life (especially in these uncertain times).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Those are some lessons I'm learning from ongoing interior decoration projects.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'll make you an example.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How do you pick up the perfect paint color among more than 2000 options? You don't!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You pick 2 or 3 colors you think might work well and than you try them on the walls looking at them at different times of the day. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don't feel overwhelmed by the many options you have. Just try things before you make any final decisions. For sure you'll change the color shade you picked up at the beginning with another one that will serve best your vision, the idea and feel of the room you are working on.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The point is: nothing is perfect at the first try. You adjust en route. It's a process. Trust the process.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

[Gathering inspiration] If you already follow me

[Gathering inspiration]

If you already follow me you probably know that I'm giving my kitchen an update.

As usual, I started gathering inspiring images. Not every element I'm collecting now has to relate literally to the finished design. But finding images that evoke the feeling and the general style I want to achieve is just as important as specific colors and objects.

These photos are my start for the project. You can already envision where I am going: I'll add raw materials from nature, more textured pieces, terracotta hues... every element will play a role in creating a more welcoming space 😍

As for the kitchen, I'm introducing warm color hues (and textures) to the rest of the home. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I really miss the warm, Mediterranean light of my hometown up here. When we chose this apartment 3 years ago, we loved the fact that it was literally filled with light. In Zürich, the weather is often cloudy and this apartment gives us a lot of natural light also on those grey days. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But as 100% of the Swiss rentals, almost everything is white: walls, ceilings, the whole kitchen... and even though this allows some kind of openness, we don’t want our home to have an icy heart. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Will you follow me along on this journey of exploration of colors, textures, shapes, materials...? I think we'll learn a lot about the spaces we live in and how we interact with them 😊⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The attempt to create a giant moodboard on my Instagram feed fell through in a jiffy 😔⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I'm under the impression that a visually curated 'puzzle' feed is mistaken as something lacking in authenticity... Am I right? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

But you know... sometimes you just have to try things out and see what happens. This time it didn't work so I went back to a more traditional feed 📱⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

If I could choose, my kitchen would have a white marble countertop and blu (or dark grey-green) cabinets. Instead, I have cabinets in total white and a countertop in black quartz.

This is one of the limits of living in a rented apartment: radical interventions cannot be made. BUT... this is not stopping me from a little makeover of the kitchen. I'm studying the colors I want to bring in and terracotta is one of them. The kitchen in black and white is cold and I want do add warmth to it 😊

I think I will end up adding some accents of that gray-green I love... what do you think of the shades I have in mind? What are the colors you would love to have in your kitchen?

Do you also have been working from your dining tab

Do you also have been working from your dining table for months? I have, and I've been sitting on the same chair whether if it was for lunch/dinner, e-meets, interviews and virtual events.

But now that we are going through a second wave, it's time to create zones in our homes to establish some mental division between work and play.

I and my husband are both working from home and since he really needs a separate room due to the many e-meetings, I’ve left him my studio.

After months of working from the dining table, in July I moved to the living room. Now I have (again) a proper desk and office chair, my neck stopped hurting and when I’m done for the day I’m under the impression of really disconnecting from work. It's almost like closing the door of the studio as it was before the Covid-19.

You know 'Home is where the heart is' but as of late home is also where our office is. Create a space that allows you to focus on your job and helps you disconnect when you call it a day.

Pumpkins make me smile. Always 🎃

There is a farm, just 20 minutes driving from my home, that is very popular for its pumpkins exhibitions. Every year they pick a theme and build big sculptures using decorative pumpkins.

This year's theme has been 'underwater' but I didn't have the chance to visit the farm. It's a very crowded place and, even though it's open-air, I didn't feel comfortable going there.

I hope to come back soon and stock up on beautiful Autumn colors (and delicious pumpkins to eat)! Meanwhile, here are some snapshots from my past visits.

You see? Beautiful, beautful Fall shades. Speaking of colors, did you read the top color trends you'll love this Fall/Winter 2020-21? Look for it on crescenzi.ch homepage: it became one of the most popular posts on the blog!
