Silver!

I have a fantasy of decorating a room entirely in silver. I've written about my love of silver before. (See previous post here.) Today I am envisioning a modern silver room, but also one that is ultra glam. Of course, the walls and floor would be white, so the silver pieces would appear as though floating on a cloud. Here are some pieces I'd have in the room. Hope you enjoy!


The ultimate fantasy sofa. Anyone sitting on this piece would look like a god or goddess. Image from Deeply Madly Living.  Of course the room would need silver ottomans and poufs. A few of these would do the trick.

The egg chair, designed by Arne Jacobsen, is one of my favorite designs of all time.  I adore it in silver!   I also adore the painting above the fireplace. Image from Beale-Lana.

I've shown this fab dresser before, I simply adore it!  I would love to have this for my flat screen TV. Image from Burke Decor.

Or this dresser from the Jacques Garcia Collection for Baker would do the trick. Drool. Image from Kohler Interiors.

Of course, the room would, of course, need silver vases. These might do the trick. Image from Brocade Home.
Mercury wastebaskets from Marie Claire Maison. I would probably put flowers in them or use them as umbrella stands.
I also dig this chandelier from Marie Claire Maison. Just the right amount of funkiness.

Here is my most recent painting. This painting is in honor of the full moon and is an experiment in white, silver and texture. I would love to see this painting in an all silver room.

Arne Jacobsen – one of the most influential furniture designers of the last century – has designed the lounge Egg Chair in 1956. Its reproduction has a molded fiberglass frame. Improvements include a fire retardant polyurethane foam with high quality crepe pure wool upholstery. This wonderful chair is presented in the Mojo Interiors webshop.
