SARAH RICHARDSON ~ DESIGN ON GEORGIAN BAY
HGTV's Sarah Richardson designed this beautiful lake house on Canada's Georgian Bay. Sarah's husband owned the rustic home as a bachelor, so the designer wasted no time in turning the place into a family friendly summer cottage.
Richardson painted the walls white, softened the colors in the kitchen, and added colors and fabrics that blended with the environment. This eco-friendly home had an open floor plan, so Sarah divided the home into rooms, tying them all together with color. ENJOY!
To read a step by step plan which includes paint colors, fabrics used, and building material, pick up the July issue of Country Living.

CHRISTOPHER PRAIN ~ DESIGN IN LONDON
When Mark Hughes, a cosmetic dentist, decided to purchase a three bedroom flat in a converted Victorian primary school in Battersea, he called on London interior designer Christopher Prain. Prain had decorated Hughes' previous home in the same building and both of his dental offices.
Because Hughes loves black, so much of the flat was monochromatic, with touches of navy, gray, mahogany and taupe. Unique to the home is the chandelier/mobile above the dining room table, the staircase and its gray glass balustrade, and the black stained and polished hardwood floors.
The dining table is an Eero, the dining chairs are Cappellini, and the sofa is by Mary Fox Linton. The cabinetry is silver birch.
Because there is so much modern furniture in the home, Prain covered the chairs in a stripe and added two mirrors. ENJOY!
I hope that you will stop by my daughter's blog, b e l l e s & b o w s, today. I think that you will thoroughly enjoy her post!

FARM LIFE ON MARTHA'S VINEYARD
New York City-based restaurateur Keith McNally found the land for his vacation home, Windy Gates in Chilmark, while riding a bicycle through the area. What followed was a farm house on a four-acre lot where McNally and his children can enjoy time together. McNally raises his own pigs, chickens, ducks, goats, and lambs. He also makes goat cheese, keeps up orchards for apples, peaches, cherries and plums, and grows berries and vegetables.
The home is furnished with reclaimed wood and flea market finds which McNally found in markets in France and America. The door frames were built to fit doors that he had found at market. He also used an L-shaped red leather banquet, bistro glasses, zinc countertops, and a huge farm table. The plank floors and tea stained walls are beautiful, and it is apparent that McNally worked with his usual attention to detail. ENJOY!

STEVEN GAMBREL ~ DESIGN IN MANHATTAN
This is the third home that the uber-talented interior designer Steven Gambrel has designed for this Manhattan couple and their children. First he designed their present home in the same apartment building. He then designed a home for the family in the Hamptons. The family had outgrown their smaller apartment so they asked Gambrel to create a third home, an apartment which is a combination of the apartment the family had lived in for ten years and an apartment that became available next door.
Gambrel gutted both homes and started over designing and decorating the stunning home. What resulted was a loft-like dwelling with separate open and inviting rooms.
Gambrel used a mix of modern and traditional furnishing and accessories. The walls are finished with Venetian plaster, the entry-way floors are a black and white marble, the kitchen cabinets are lacquered and the island is topped with black and gold marble. ENJOY!

DESIGN IN HOLMBY HILLS, CALIFORNIA
Interior designers Danielle Eber and Thomas Beeton worked closely with architects Toni Lewis and Marc Schoeplein to create the perfect pool house for the owners of this Holmby Hills estate. The structure is a part of the main residence.
The pool house was built to be a luminous part of the gardens, and is filled with family friendly furnishings and rugs. The old world feel of the nearby conservatory has been incorporated into the playful interior.
The clients entertain year round and wanted the octogonal-shaped house to be perfect for all seasons. Mission accomplished. ENJOY!
