Getting Around
House Beautiful peaked a little early, with a January 2006 piece on the rooms interior decorator Karen Reisler did for Katie's daughters, who are ten and fourteen.

The bastards don't even have it on line, so I'm sorry no images, but the themes were:

* mixing two bright colors: in one case turquoise and lime, in one lime and fuschia;

* our favorite white paint (Benjamin Moore white dove) used on the trim;

* simple Crate and Barrel furniture;

* vintage posters (framed Marilyn Monroe images for one kid, unframed Beatles posters for the other;

* shock-o-rama Designers Guild prints;

and

* brightly colored flokati rugs.

It was, for a professional designer, surprisingly non-hotel-y. Go forth and imitate.
