celerie kemble is awesome
have i ever mentioned that, in addition to an obsession with grasscloth (which has been the case since i was young - i'm not just jumping on board here), i also have a very large soft spot for wood paneling? totally obvious that i was a product of the 80s? yes, i think so.

cozy but yet still looks pretty classy. I super love the first photo
ReplyDeleteyup, she rocks. I've never seen a space she's done that I didn't love. The proportion and layers and perfect!
ReplyDeleteWe have a lake house that has wood paneling in the family room and I just can't seem to 'fall in love' with this... but after seeing your images... I think I have softened just a tad! LOL Thanks for sharing... have a terrific Thursday
ReplyDeleteI am a huge fan of wood panelling too! And of grass cloth, for that matter. :)

She is very talented. Love the ceiling.
ReplyDeleteI agree!! She is 1000% awesome! xoxo elizabeth
ReplyDeleteVery cool. I think it works so well because everything else is super bright/white.
ReplyDeleteShe is very talented. Love the warmth with the wood paneling.
ReplyDeleteIf you like wood paneling, you'd love my grandparents house!
ReplyDeleteNormally not a fan, but I do love it here!
When eating lunch at a Thai food restaurant a few months ago, my husband had the idea to put up home-made wood paneling on one wall of our dining room. Which would mean replacing the grass cloth. What to do? What to do?
ReplyDeleteWood walls are so tricky to get right! Of course, it helps when the walls are this beautiful to start with. There are so many gorgeous elements in this room :)
ReplyDeleteWell you know my eye is immediately drawn to the Lucite coffee table! And the marble brass desk. I'm so predictable. Love Celerie's work!
ReplyDeleteJust love every single thing about these images! PINNED!
ReplyDeleteFabulous! I do think the light rugs keep it from feeling dark and cavey up in there. But in her hands the wood walls are uber chic!
ReplyDeleteI didn't think I was a fan until I saw that second image! Maybe the key is to balance it out with light upholstery and lucite. In that case, count me in! xx
ReplyDeleteThat beautiful window brings out the whole feel of the room so much more, it looks so warm!
