What inspired you to use color? Sunlight is a combination of colors and it surrounds us everyday, but it is just light. Taking the base colors which make up sunlight and using them around us energizes, soothes and excites our home and our life.
Color Tip: Red, blue, yellow, green and black, silver are powerful and don't be afraid to experiment.
Colors Used: Ralph Lauren Coffee is the color of espresso and brilliant for doors and woodwork. Ralph Lauren Natural Gray helps create a rich, soothing, and warm room.
Fall Colors Introduction -------------------------------
Welcome, everyone, to our Fourth Annual Fall Colors Sharing & Contest. We're looking for the most beautiful & colorful home in the world and sharing all of the great ideas we get with our readers. This year we're amping things up and hoping to do things better than ever. There are two basic phases, the Sharing Phase and the Voting Phase...
1. Sharing Phase - you comment, judges decide
The 40 best, completed entries will be posted on a daily basis for three weeks. You can view them all at anytime via our new, improved contest pages under ALL ENTRIES. During this time your comments are VERY IMPORTANT as our six judges will be choosing 16 finalists from each region based on comments and their own colorful opinion.
2. Voting Phase - you vote till you drop
Starting October 20th, finalist voting will begin on a daily basis through our new bracketed voting system, which will pit our 16 finalists against one another until only one remains. Sound exciting? We hope so.
Best, Maxwell

Love that headboard.

Gregory's bed is one that if featured on MTV Cribs, you know the know is going to say "and this is where the magic happens" and you would believe it. That's one sexy bed!

Sexy bedroom, and love the use of red in the main living space. Looks like a very cozy place.

Too much stuff. No one needs all that clutter. Take it down by half and then maybe I could look at it without getting a headache.

Not really punchy or sophisticated in terms of color usage.

Not a fan of the bed or its furnishings. Maybe if Gregory had a rubber bedspread then I would think it was sexy. Right now I just think, "Don't spill anything."

Gregorys place is very busy. Maybe toss some stuff.

I love the color and design of the bedroom. The rest of the space is disjointed and cluttered. There are some good colors used but it needs some tweaking on de-cluttering and simplifing. The vertical blinds are distracting as well.
