A Brief Foray into Home Decor


Not my succulent, but one of many organically sculptural/architectural elements of my clients' new home. I was there to photograph the family of course, but I couldn't help but capture some of these interior design details. Below, an eclectic selection of vintage-y frames, unified by being painted painted an east-coast-beach-house-shutter-matte-white. Makes me want to dig around garage sales for frames and paint them all the same color.


Another wall piece; a large surface, say the size of 3 doors, pinned with cutouts of chrysanthemum prints. I'd seem something in the same vein at an Anthropologie store - an entire wall covered with pinned on paper cutouts of flying bird silhouettes. Aim some studio lights at this wall and get some amazing shadows. I think felt cutouts would work great, as well as (cardboard/paper-backed) print or textured fabric, pinned onto a painted cork board. I might not be able to resist giving this a try...
