Just as everyone is getting ready to head to the beach, I’m working on the next design personality for a person not necessarily in need of a beach – EARTHY MODERN.  It’s easy living…with lots of natural materials like driftwood, stone and rustic fabrics. It’s a little eco, a little country, and a little 70′s with disco balls and shags. Being a color addict it’s been a fun challenge, to stick to a more strict color scheme of neutrals to give the place a relaxing vibe. A pop of orange and some olive green is as colorful as it gets,oh a little eggplant purple. Here’s a few images that have inspired me.

I love the beach, but summers are great like this too.

I love this bedroom with it’s relaxing feel and Andrea Kakel IKEA bedding.

I don’t know about you, but I think this is a really livable modern look.
