Colors: Peridot, White, Brown + Black
Spring is around the corner, and I can't wait for that first hint of green to bloom on branches and for the grass to peak though the ground. And it's getting close to wedding season, too! Here's a great color palette to pay tribute to a spring wedding that is fresh, rustic, and with an edge of modernity.
The lively color of Peridot goes great with the earthy brown, and then I wanted to add a bit of sophistication through black and white accents to add elegance to the overall setting. Use unconventional ingredients for the decor and table setting – mossy arrangements, dogwood branches with white blooms, black lacquered manzanita branches and an eclectic mix of large white vases. For florals – green mums and soft, white florals like peonies and tulips. And how about a hand drawn invitation design showcasing a flower which sets the mood of feel of your overall wedding with calligraphic and traditional fonts.

I call this inspiration board a Modern, Vintage Mexico, because I have elements of old traditions such as the lace on her veil, the church, the vintage map, gold jewelry, silver table decor and the use of old-world typography. The modern aspect comes from the use of nontraditional things for the wedding decor. I am embracing local plants to Mexico like succulents that can be used in the bridal bouquet, boutonniere, table centerpieces and on the wedding cake too. And throughout the board, you can see that "modern pop of color", the deep plum, as an accent color – in her bouquet with the orchids, her oh-so-chic pumps, and hints of it in individual succulent plants.

And last but not least is my personal Art Studio room in which I am sooo desperately in need of right now. Currently, my dining room is filled with projects for a client wedding. Thank goodness we don't eat in there too often or my husband would have a tiff about it. For this room, I wanted to keep it generally neutral with white and beige tones, but then offset with a pop of color and fun. I loved this area rug from FLOR, because it reminded me of the Missoni brand, and its use of textiles in fashion. Besides having a lot of energy and movement, I liked its playfulness for my art room. To contrast the edginess of the rug and bright red side chair, I wanted a rustic, craft feel since it is a work studio. For the floors, I am going with a white-washed distressed wood finish in a laminate material which will be good for the basement in case there is ever water damage, and it will be highly resilient for my laborious projects. For the main light fixture, it's an over-sized barn-like pendant lamp that suspends over the main work table with two cast-iron stools underneath. I can't wait to work in this space!

I had an itch for a summer, emerald green color palette after I saw the Carolina Herrera's white gown called "Constance". The dramatic, wavy ruffles on the dress reminded me of the Peony's chunky white petals (on the second board, lower-right corner). Then I saw the dark green stem against the white Peony and came up with the perfect color combo – green, white and a soft grey. It's a nice combination for a spring wedding – fresh, crisp and clean.
I always love a nice, tailored grey suit with a nice tie, like the one above in green for the groom and his groomsmen. And for the reception table decor, only use fresh live plants like green grass, moss, herbs and even live plant terrariums.

Part of "Moveable Type" installation by Mark Hansen and Ben Rubin in the entrance of the NYT building. The installation is an active portrait of the NYT fueled by the contents of the daily paper as well as interactions from NYtimes.com browsers.
The second installment of our Spring 2016 members-only studio tour series got us an intimate look into the day-to-day workings of some of New York City’s most intriguing and innovative design companies. The New York Times Digital Design Team lead us on a tour of The Times’s Renzo Piano designed office, followed by a 30 minute casual conversation and Q&A with the team over a light breakfast.

Colors: Poppy Red, Orange + Mandarin Yellow
An intense burst of oranges + reds in this inspiration board. I was inspired by Reem Acra's silk floral gown from the 2010 spring season. This particular wedding I see it set in a spring garden setting. An effortless, beautiful bride with her hair gathered into an easy pony tail with a red-orange poppy flower accent. Fun, matching colored flats for the bride and her bridesmaids in stylish cocktail-length dresses. The groom and groomsmen in beige cotton suits with coordinating bow or skinny ties.
A simple, but delish menu of spring greens, caprese salad, pasta and warm baked bread. And it is accompanied with refreshing drinks like fresh squeezed lemonade, Italian sodas and theme-colored cocktails. :) As for decor, glowing paper lanterns that blow in the night breeze, twinkle lights wrapped around the local trees, and sunburst orange flowers contrasted against clean white, crisp linens.
