The adorable decorator Miles Redd in his New York City Townhouse. Photo from New York Social DiaryDo you have a love/hate relationship with animal skin treatments? They tread so close to tacky waters! But when it is done right, it is so chic and refreshing. Just a few loves in my file. The Rose Cummings paper above is just so gorgeous in a crisp blue. Such an unusual, fun approach to zebra. And Miles Redd paired classic zebra on the doors to his red and pink living room. I can just imagine pitching this to a client and seeing them cringe, but look it works!

I guess Miles Redd can always redecorate when he tires of the mix - he probably redoes his living room every year! I think the average person who does not redececorate so often would be hesitant because it would be very easy to get tired of such a bold use of animal print.
Nice to meet you, and congratulations on starting a blog!
I agree on Miles pad. However fabulous, I think you might want a change after awhile. But maybe that's the joy of it!
love this - loving your blog!!
