You will definitely find this trend in my home. I love the different tones and grains that wood offers. It adds so much texture and it really can go in any space and make it look rich and warm.

My industrial dining table

West Elm vases

Vintage bread box with wood for our REAL fireplace

Added wood around the pictures to make them more rich and add texture

Our living room end tables, LOVE the saw cut wood. 

In form of art

On the back of our favorite chair and looks so good with the frames around the pictures

LOVE the grain in this small table

I have to mention our sofa. Its our favorite thing in the house and the wood really demands your eyes attention.

My coffee table, pallets of understated wood that look rough and worn with time.

TREND # 2: "NEW"trals- the new neutrals


* Add life and depth with these new colorful neutrals

Modern global. Well, I don't travel much, but I don't think you have to to have this style injected into your home. Modern global is more about patterns, and we all can add patterns to our home if we don't have them already. Look around your home...you may be surprised how Modern Global you are!




Heres my injections of Modern Global:

Cant go wrong with a zig zag or two!

Uzbekistan pillows

Duvet

Fabric

Entry rug
