Go For It!

Homeowners who want to experiment with color can incorporate colorful throw pillows, accessories or art. At ADJ Interiors, we love working with color, but we also love working with tone or natural projects - especially if those projects incorporate natural wood grains and lots of texture and layers. Our tip to homeowners would be to go for it; don’t second guess yourself. Paint a wall or the crown or the ceiling; do what is going to make you feel how you want to feel in the space.

Garnering Inspiration

Artist, painter and occasional illustrator, Terri Shay isn’t afraid to herald in dramatic color. In fact, her artwork revels in it. Her paintings feature radiant swirls of colors bent to form exquisite odes to nature’s beauty. “I see patterns and rhythm in nature,” she explains of her muses. But not content to simply paint exactly what she sees, Shay will take a tree or flower and modify them, playing with their size, hue and shapes. “I like to rearrange what I see and heighten the color—I like the freedom of experimenting and using my imagination,” she says.

“We love old homes with all the qualities that make them unique,” says the owner of this 1913 beauty. The owners already lived in a beloved older home nearby, but they wanted a larger kitchen and other upgrades in that house that would require an addition, a project that wasn’t feasible. They also wanted a pool and to stay within the Clayton neighborhood they adored.
