Metrocon 2009- A Big Success
This year's Metrocon Expo & Conference (sponsored by OM Workspace and DG Publishing Inc) went off without a hitch. Designed with innovation, forward thinking, and continued education in mind, volunteers from Texas/Oklahoma IIDA, Dallas-Fort Worth IFMA and Texas ASID came together to bring us one show-stopping, two-day event.

Black + White Design
When it comes to choosing a design scheme, there is almost nothing I love more than Black & White together. It's crisp, clean, sophisticated and allows you to get creative with patterns (stripes & brocade, to name a few of my faves), graphics, and textures. There is something so pretty and chic about the stark contrast between the two. See below for a few elements that have me feeling extra inspired this morning.
Culture Shock: Design Inspiration from Around the World
You are a globetrotter, a real roaming gnome with an affection for cultural exposure. Make your travel memories last by taking design elements and ideas from around the world and infusing them into your home's decor. Designers are taking inspiration from across the globe, using the bold colors, intricate detailing and traditional methods from the rich cultures of the world to influence fine home furnishings.
Color Specialist Lee Eiseman's 2010 Color Trend Forecast
This year's June Total Home & Gift Market at Dallas Market Center proved the design market is perking up after a recently sluggish economy. With a bevy of speakers and presentations throughout the event, special guest Lee Eiseman lit up the room with a riveting 2010 Color Trends forecast presentation. We couldn't help but jot down some notes and take home a few tips from Eiseman's hand-picked home design color palettes from Pantone.
Colorful Kitchens
You're cooking is spicy, so why shouldn't your kitchen reflect your culinary taste? We suggest you heat things up by adding a pinch of color here and a dash of color there. Our sources tell us that colorful kitchens are a designer's dream right now - everything from tinted cabinetry, table tops, appliances, window treatments, and backsplashes. Take some inpiration from these photos and get creative with color in your own kitchen. Too afraid to take the plunge with over-the-top appliances like these? Opt for smaller, brightly colored accents peppered around the space.
