In Living Uncolor


There are many reasons to love color and many colors to love. I will find a color to love, a shock of vibrating blue or a tasty immersion of papaya, and just have to have it for a time. Yet I always come back to gray.

I was trying so hard to find the right ways to bring color into our little abode, and then it struck me that it should be white and shades of gray. The clothes that attract me are grays, neutrals, the rooms I love are grays...it allows me to focus on light and texture. There is richness in grays.

...And then, of course, I hold a special place in my heart for greens.

I love neutrals as well--so clean and uncluttered. I have been quite taken with some of the design elements in Iceland, especially the hardware on the doors, etc. Very simple and unfettered.
