A Perfect Day at the RH Showroom

A beautifully sunny Memorial day weekend was only made better by a trip to RH Chicago- The Gallery at the Historic Three Arts Club in the Gold Coast. We sipped bellinis as we walked through the main floor's faux studies, comforting living rooms and impressive dining rooms. The bedroom exhibit on the second floor was pure luxury in the simplified Restoration Hardware way, relying on layered textural details and muted color palettes. While each light fixture and piece of furniture was perfectly placed, we were most impressed with the way that the architect used mirrors and chandelier fixtures to bounce the light from the courtyard onto every surface. 

Inspired By: Shiplap Shutters and Wooden Exterior Accents

Like the rest of America, we at J. Scott Remodeling Co. are HUGE fans of HGTV's Fixer Upper. Sundays are often reserved for marathon viewings. After our family brunches on homemade brioche french toast, we fill the afternoon with small projects and a neighborhood walk while waiting to see the reveal of Chip and JoJo's latest charming, modern remodel

Recently, the most common theme of these home renovations revolves around one word, SHIPLAP. In bathrooms as shelving, in dining rooms as white-washed backgrounds, or as our personal favorite, exterior accents!
