Sweet Dreams

I'll admit it, there are just some rooms which prove to be a bit of a design challenge for me...thank God I have a talented business partner who takes the reins when this happens!  The master bedroom for instance scares the s*%t out of me.  It's down right difficult to strike a balance of masculine and feminine or design a space that invigorates the senses in the morning and yet calms and yields serenity at night.  The issue is this is a space that should feel sexy, a bit layered with love and absolutely decadent in furnishings, linens, accessories, lighting, wallcoverings and floor coverings.  So how do you achieve all of these goals?  This question makes me freeze, like a deer in headlights.  Enter...Ron Marvin, NY interior designer who masterfully aces all of the above mentioned criteria.  Check out these images of two bedrooms I ADORE! Maybe you'll agree that if you had a room like these you'd want to snuggle up with someone special and get a bit closer.

Song of the day is by Tegan and Sarah (featured on their new album 'Heartthrob' which drops Jan 29th), "Closer" (click title to play).  The song rocks...makes me want to dance on my bed!

Beautiful balance of scale, colors, textures, etc.

Ron Marvin as featured on his site.  I adore the symmetry, use of lush textures and dark walls.  It feels like a sexy cocoon.
Shannon actually painted the walls of her master bedroom in a similar hue last week...it's gorgeous!!

Accessorizing Perfection!  The leather strap handles on the vintage dresser add character and an unexpected material.

Organized chaos.  This side table is a dream!!  Night, night.
