Today I am featuring the home of Aubrey from Aubrey Veva Design. I love her mix of traditional and modern elements. Here is what she says she loves most about her home:
I want to welcome you to our quaint little home located in
the Avenues near down town Salt Lake City, UT. This 1,000 sq ft rental has
comfortably been our home for me, my husband Bryan, and our daughter Veva for 3
years now and I have just about design devoured every square inch of it. It’s been a fun challenge transforming
this space with its 12 ft ceilings, stark barren walls and large rooms in to a
place of peace from the busy world outside us.

My design style has changed within the few years we have
lived here, and it continues to change with the seasons my families life. Now
that we have little Veva, I have found myself being inspired by her bright
spirit, and utilizing that through color. I now have more vivid pops of color
through out our home, a palette that I can proudly say was innovated by my
little girl. When before it was a very monochromatic black and white color
scheme.

I love mixing the old with the new. My design style for our
home is contemporary with a twist of chic. I am all about the hunt, the hunt
for a great piece of furniture that is eye capturing, yet enticing. It doesn’t
need to be the most expensive rug in the magazine, but something that tells a
story. One of my favorite pieces is my old vintage black trunk I use as a
coffee table. It was one of my dearest friends grandmothers she brought over
from Europe in the late 1800’s. She was selling it a yard sale, so I snatched
it up as soon as I laid eyes on it. Now it is a home for all my knit blankets I
take out during the holidays.

I believe that all spaces should inherent a sense of style
and personality, in order to create an excellent design. My interior aesthetic
for a well designed room is to incorporate character, color and good company. I
hope you enjoyed my home tour and hope it can help inspire those to create a
space to call home away from our everyday busy lives.

Thanks so much to Aubrey for sharing her home with us! Make sure you check out her blog here.
love the baby room so much!
Love it!
This is beautiful! I especially love the legs on the tv stand–they really make the piece look special. Are they IKEA legs that have been painted? I have an IKEA bed base (storage bed) with the boring stainless steel sultan legs. I'm feeling inspired to attempt to paint them. I'm sure spray paint would be best, but I'm in a 475-square feet fourth floor walk up in Manhattan. No room (or desire) to unscrew the bed, find space on the street, etc. Maybe martha stewart living paints with a good primer would work. Thanks for the motivation!
