Fall Colors 2006 Finalist #14: Luke's Rich and Modern Bath

Name: Luke
Location: Chicago
Type: 2 bedroom highrise condo, owned
Go to: Original Entry - Luke's Rich and Modern Bath

Luke's favorite OTHER entry:

#16 Joel + Maria's Miami Townhouse WHY: I think their rooms are tastefully done. The color punctuates the rooms without being overwhelming. The objects in the rooms go well together.

What do you want to do next in your home, if anything, to improve it?:

I'm not sure exactly what I want to do in my next home, but I have considered using a monochromatic color scheme and I would like to experiment with lighting.

Love it!

Few questions, the blue colour, what's that called, and who makes it?

Also the model/makes of the beds, if you don't mind.

Beautiful! Another one of my favorites!!!

Sophisticated, pleasing and restful. One of my favorites too. The saturated wall colors (the deep blue-grey and deep orange) are a surprising background for a calm atmosphere. The effects are more complex than they first appear. Several different brown wood tones, the black & white (and grey) artwork, the acid green accents. This seems really livable to me, and adaptable to accessories of other colors when a change is desired. It could also be adapted to a lower budget. Congratulations.

Blue color and green color? Please?

posted by me on 2006-11-16 22:37:40

I'm dying to know what those colors/brands are in the Chicago bedroom -- I've been hunting for a very similar scheme for mine. Can you pass along??

posted by mcoc on 2006-11-17 11:13:36

I will get those colors tonight..
sorry couldn't do it last night because of the CB2 event.

Thanks

I'm so glad to see more of your space. With just the original bathroom pictures, I wasn't sure how the rest of it played. What an enjoyable home. Reminds me of finalist #12 a little bit (Tricia's). I wouldn't ever have thought to go this color route.

I'm so glad to see such strong entries in the finals!

please please please tell us where the gray paint color is from - I really love how it looks in these pictures.

i LOVE the cube-ish vase w/ the pink flower. reminds me of an ice-cube. nice contrast of nature & clean lines.

posted by mg on 2006-11-18 18:27:01

please please tell us the name of that gray on the wall - it's beautiful.

Luke,

We're not going to let you get away without telling us the colors on EVERY wall. :-)

posted by Dan on 2006-11-20 09:39:54

Luke,

You have a gorgeous place.

If you're still reading this, I'd love to know the name of the grey-blue wall as well!

I just recently bought a condo and was up in the air on the color scheme...I think I have found what I was looking for!! Would you be able to tell me the colors used for both the bathroom, and bedroom, they are absolutley perfect.
