## Caption

After feeling the weight of the previous color, I’ve been craving a space that feels airy, yet grounded. Cozy, yet elegant. Think: a well-traveled French apartment that feels like the softness of the sun, with a hint of, we’ve got sohohouse at home 💁🏾‍♂️ So I welcome you to a new Lounge IV!

To usher in this next era:
• A light-reflecting wall color now brightens the space from sunrise to sunset. Setting Plaster is its name.
• A deep chocolate velvet sofa from ikeausa Stockholm line grounds the room - sumptuous, sculptural, and perfect for lounging (and napping)
• Art has also been refined - local art meets pieces collected from my travels.
• My Nerissa rug found a new home, making way for this soft blush and plush beauty beneath my feet.
• I relocated a few plants to the greenhouse, leaving only the most architectural behind - the Dumb Cane is living for their spot at the window.
• And for a soft night’s illumination of my art, I removed the battery-powered lights, hardwiring new picture lights while repainting.

Now, my living room it matches this stage in my creative evolution, perfectly balances feminine and masculine energies, and honestly reminds me of my favorite ice cream - Neapolitan 🍨

Feliz Friday, y’all! What’s your favorite part of the switch up?!
