The Look: A Neutral Sanctuary in Ibiza, Spain

I know I resolved to make 2013 a more colorful year, but resolutions were made to be broken-- right? Or at least suspended. Something about this neutral bedroom in Ibiza, Spain is calling to me. I suppose that living in a chaotic city, the idea of taking refuse in a restful palette of taupe and charcoal is appealing.

Lots of good ideas here too:

1. A pair of swing-arm floor lamps flanking the bed, rather than the traditional wall sconce;
2. pairing the steel side table with the lower wood stool for multi-level bedside surfaces; and
3. hanging medium-scale art off-center over the bed.

So for today, a calm oasis of neutrals. And tomorrow, back to color!
