From editor Diane Carroll: “The design community is eagerly awaiting the first issue of the online magazine Rue, and the founding editor published a sneak peek of her own house this week. It’s a beautifully simple and elegant room, and you can see how one touch of color (pink, in this case) changes the look. Imagine a dash of orange in summer, or cranberry in December–that’s the beauty of white.”
From art director Mandy Keener: “Marvelous! Digging the plate display.” (“Katrin Arens” from Mint)
From associate editor Paulette Pearson: “Be still my heart! Maybe it’s the serene colors, or maybe it’s the fact that I woke up so early today, but this bedroom (designed by Melanie Turner and featured in Veranda) couldn’t be more inviting to me. I could curl up on that sofa for hours!” (“Refreshing Perfection” from Delight by Design)
From account executive Kathy Condrey: “Such a cute idea for a rug! This would work perfect in our playroom.” (“Before & After: Belénâs Rug)
From advertising coordinator Laura LaRue: We have weddings on the brain at our office this month with our fall weddings issue going to press in a few weeks. These pics are just the perfect inspiration I’ll pass on to all my engaged friends. Beautiful! (“Everything Fabulous”)
