The Happy Housie

Things seriously don't get more cheerful than this! Krista from The Happy Housie not only adores color (especially turquoise!), she also loves to fix up old junky things and make them fresh and beautiful again–when she's not busy being a mom and kindergarten teacher that is! Her lakeside home in British Columbia, Canada is a big ol' slice of happy, with an amazing view to go along with it! Every room is brimming with inspiring DIY projects, so head here to finish your tour and get links and info on everything!

Ashley Gilbreath Interior Design

Montgomery interior designer Ashley Gilbreath took my breath away with this beautifully beachy home located near Alys Beach, Florida, captured perfectly by photographer Holland Williams! From the soft and soothing sand-and-sea color palette, comfy laid back furniture and nature-inspired coastal accessories, this home is absolute perfection in my book! For more images of the home, visit PARISH–Ashley's blog (and the name of her store in Montgomery)...and check out her portfolio while you're there, it's filled with eye candy!

Seldin Design Studios

What a stunning space! Rachel Seldin of San Fransisco-based Seldin Design Studios was inspired by the colors in a throw blanket from India when designing this exotic master bedroom. Such a striking mixture of texture, pattern and color! Isn't that headboard incredible?? The linens are as well, I just love everything–especially that fun blanket at the end of the bed! There are more great designs from Rachel waiting for you, just head right over here!

PassivWorks

From the looks of it, you'd never guess this beautiful home was a green energy experiment! Rick Milburn of PassivWorks spent 18 months retrofitting the 1960-built Sonoma, California home to be ultra energy-efficient. (It was actually the first retrofit passive project in the US–read all the details here!) What I love most, of course, is the light and breezy color scheme by Jann Blazona Interior Design. Everything is so open and airy! Can't get enough of the turquoise tile and built-ins, not to mention fab laundry room!! Read all about the home and see more photos by Ned Bonzi right over here!
