old hollywood bedroom inspiration

I've been drawn to the Old Hollywood regency school of interiors lately, and I love how pieces of that era always seem to pop up in modern rooms. I was looking at Lonny's bedroom inspiration section, saw the picture below, and got inspired. My dream bedroom would look like this - it's a bit masculine, but the pops of color + bits of whimsy keep it from going overboard. I'd probably put my precious glittery Louboutins on my bedside table just to keep it feminine.

art & architecture: cardboard sky

rendering of finished piece

Eye candy for today is University of Texas architecture student Daniel Morrison's ambitious installation, featured at the Art Alliance Austin event last year. A friend of mine volunteered for the project and helped cut and fold the hundreds of cardboard crosses that make up the final piece. It's been sitting in my inspiration folder for about a year now, and I still can't get over it.
