Oh, I love that red and orange light fixture. It's so great! Does anyone know where it's from?
Never mind, I see it's DK Vogue.
I totally love the concept of having a dedicated art space in the home. We recently redid our office as a dining room/gallery. It's not finished yet, but I love having all of that wall space dedicated to art!!
Our Dining Room/Gallery
Art belongs everywhere. The only rooms in my house that do not have art are the home theater (reflections off the glass are distracting -- although we do talk about movie posters now and again...), the furnace room and the electrical utility room (breaker box and wiring for the theater.) Everywhere else has some including the garage and the teensy laundry room! And bathrooms.
Thanks, Beth! It's a "VP ball lamp." (We ordered it before seeing it in person, which was a bit daunting at the time, but we're so glad we did - we love it!). Thanks again.
