a bright white day...

(via tom leighton)
I was planning on posting some bold colors to start of the week (was thinking teal or perhaps fuchsia) but I just kept coming across lovely white spaces in my search for color inspiration, all of which proved that white is anything but boring.

Beautiful! Especially the two by John Bressler and the Skona Hem kitchen with the cushion seats.
Hope it has stopped snowing!

No need to post bold colors. White is one of my favorites. However, it does keep snowing in Colorado and I am ready for spring, so I suppose some brighter colors would be nice. Happy Monday!

these spaces are anything but boring. why is it that every time i see a white room i think dirt? does that say something about me? hmmm.

Christina, love that you think that! With two black dogs I should be thinking the same thing but oddly I don't--hmm..

These are my dream rooms! It's too bad I have 3 sets of paws that would be walking all over everything:)

I just never get tired of an all white room... I love those "pooling" draperies in the third picture down! Looks cozy and chic!

What is it about chandeliers, curtains that gather on wood floor and mirrored cabinets that just makes a room look so elegant? I love these photos...

I'll take that kitchen and the floors in the following picture, and go ahead and throw in that mirrored chest in the next picture! So pretty!

Oh yes not boring at all! I love that chair in that first photo and those drapes that billow at the bottom is so gorgeous!

I love them all. These rooms are like a little slice of heaven. I wish I had a room like this in my house. I think that I would never suffer from writer's block in a room as light, airy, and free as these ones! :)

I'm usually a big color girl, but these are great.

Oh, and I do want to show my style but it's hard narrowing it down. Will do it soon though, thanks for the tag.

I love love love these--that Hollywood Regency one is tucked into my design files someplace. White is so beautiful when it's done right. Thanks for this post!
