Weekly Style Inspiration – Missoni for Target

Beginning this week, I’ll be starting something called “Weekly Style Inspiration.”   Here, I’ll share whatever is getting my design juices flowing, whether it’s fashion, interiors, or even an object.  I’ll take this insight and show how this could be translated into an interior space.  

With the tremendous buzz over the Missoni for Target collection last week, like most of the country, I’ve been going crazy for the eclectic zig zag chevron prints and gorgeously rich colors!  Between trips to Target, it got me thinking; how would I approach designing a room with such prints (especially since everything at Target was sold out)?  This was my solution… 

From left to right: 1) Holly Hunt Area Rug- Maze; 2) Schumacher- Adras Ikat Print (Martyn Lawrence Bullard Collection);  3) Stacy Garcia Luxury Wallpapers – Stacy Garcia Mum; 4) Lee Jofa – Remo Striper, Color: Bittersweet; 5) Donghia – Zig Zag End Table; 6) Schumacher- Zenyatta Mondatta, Color: Noir and Blanc; 7) Mcguire Furniture- Bill Sofield Queen Branche Bed – Woven Headboard; 8) Pittsburgh Paint Colors: 110-7 Citrus Spice, 211-6 Grass Daisy, and  139-7 Wild Mulberry

I’ve fallen in love with Schumacher’s Zenyatta Mondatta print from the Fall 2011 Chroma Collection.  It comes in three striking colorways, including the black and noir that is shown above, and I still can’t figure out which one I like the best.  (I've ordered memos of all three and judging by the backorder dates, I see there are plenty of others who love it just as much as I do)!
