Decorating With Fornasetti

Ryan Saghian of Bungalow1a — Mon, 05 Nov 2012 07:47:16 +0000

Piero Fornasetti lived most of his life in Milan. He was an Italian interior decorator, painter, sculptor and engraver. The famous face on his work belongs to operatic soprano Lina Cavalieri. He found her face in a 19th century magazine. He has made over 500 variations of her face and admits that he doesn't know what inspired him to do so. He started to make them and just never stopped! His style is black and white, echoing Greek and Roman architecture as an influence. Today most of his work is in room accessories, plates, fabric, wallpaper,etc. His son, Barnaba Fornasetti continues the designs in his father's name.

Cut-Outs In Furniture

I am positively charged about negative space! Sometimes a little bit of nothing can add a lot of something. Cutouts add style and character to chairs, tables, bookends and other home decor items. Here is a selection of some of my favorite pieces:

Boho-Chic Interiors

Ryan Saghian of Bungalow1a — Wed, 24 Oct 2012 17:11:10 +0000

With so many different styles, it is sometimes hard to find what best suites you and your home. One of the most popular looks, particularly on the West Coast, has been Boho-Chic. The Bohemian inspired decor is an eclectic blend of so many different aesthetics. The Bohemian Chic look is a distinct style where you combine eclectic pieces of furniture with different colors and patterns, forming a cohesive, rich, look for your space. Stemming from various bohemian and hippie influences, the Boho-chic look is prominent among stylish females. It is easy to get the Boho-Chic look, here is my recipe:

1 part NATURAL (fur, animal hide, horn, hood)
1 part SHINY METAL (chrome, brass, gold, mirrored)
1 part FRENCH/ORNATE (chair, mirror, chandelier, etc.)
1 part MOROCCAN/ETHNIC (textiles, a table, a rug, a lantern, etc.)

+ 1 STAND-OUT LIGHTING FIXTURE (of one of the above)
+ LOOSE/CASUAL LAYERING OF ACCESSORIES (pillows, art, etc.)

= "BOHO CHIC"

Decor de Paris

Ryan Saghian of Bungalow1a — Mon, 15 Oct 2012 15:29:00 +0000

In Los Angeles, we are surrounded by an array of resources for interiors: The Pacific Design Center, The LA Mart, The Avenues, and The LCDQ. When I want that special shear, upholstery fabric, or elegant tassel, one stop on my list is Decor de Paris. Décor de Paris has consistently offered a fresh approach to recreating classic design for the needs of a modern marketplace. With clients primarily in hospitality and high end residential, they have many design challenges to meet. Not only is there a certain aesthetic level to be achieved, but there is a fabric usage to consider. Fabrics utilized in public spaces need to meet stringent safety code and durability standards, while residential clients expect easy care, stain resistant solutions - and both expect impeccable quality. Décor de Paris therefore only works with the finest mills that employ the best manufacturing technology. More than this, Decor de Paris understands the fast pace of today's marketplace and stocks their fabrics and trims for immediate shipping. To learn more about them, visit their website, Facebook, or showroom in Los Angeles at 8255 Beverly Boulevard. Los Angeles CA 90048.

The Beauty That Is Ceccotti

Ryan Saghian of Bungalow1a — Mon, 01 Oct 2012 15:24:52 +0000

I have always been infatuated by the Italian furniture houses and their innovative design techniques. My favorite collection would have to be the one of Ceccotti. Sleek lines, highest grade of walnut, beautiful finishes, and avante-garde designs make this line of furniture one to always look for. As contemporary as the collection gets, it still pays a tribute to the traditional looks of modernism and classic standpoints of the BauHaus era. Here are some images of the collection for you to get inspired!

The Return of Neo-Baroque

Ryan Saghian of Bungalow1a — Tue, 25 Sep 2012 15:48:42 +0000

Fashion and Interior Design continuously interlock with the latest trends that inhabit the runways and furniture trade shows. I cannot think of a time when leopard was more popular then when Roberto Cavalli unveiled his leopard gown on the fashion runway. With this in mind, this years New York Fashion Week marked the return of Neo-Baroque. New-Baroque was obvious in the printed and embroidered fabrics, ornate jewelry, and fancily decorated clutches. Whether it's a decorative frame, anchoring ceiling medallion, or fabulous settee, this French post-revolution aesthetic is back in high gear for home decor. Here are some carefully selected images to help you get inspired!
