JANE MOORE ~ A HOUSTON TOWNHOUSE

After a divorce, interior designer Jane Moore decided to clean house and keep only the pieces or furniture and accessories that she truly loved.  Using pastel and white slipcovered upholstery and rustic French and Swedish furnishings, Moore created a serene and lovely home for herself.  Moore's use of gilded pieces finishes off the elegant look.

I am in love with the kitchen, and agree with Moore's decision to use furniture pieces instead of cabinets.  The rustic pieces in the kitchen and dining room give the rooms the comfortable farmhouse look and feel she was looking for.  ENJOY!

    I love this home! I remember being impressed at how Jane seemed to create an oasis for this time of transition in her life. I think calming and serene interiors are good for the soul! :)

    Happy Wed, Teresa!!!

    Beautiful pictures! All of them! I love her style and I'm envious of the fountain! I searched for one last year and finally gave up! Thanks for sharing this and hope your week is going well!

    I think it is perfectly stunning and I've seen lots of comments on her kitchen about it not being practical, but for me...it's perfection!! Have a wonderful day, Teresa!!

    The colors are STUNNING. My favorite palette of all....looks like a soft layer of powder was blown all over the rooms, it has that dusty kind of effect, love it!!

    Love the peacefulness that the design created...very comfortable and elegant. The neutral bedroom seems like a perfect place to escape!
