Today for Favorite Interior Tuesday we have Vie from
Verdigris Vie, and I am honoured she is here! A lot of you fellow Canadian Bloggers know Vie as the delightful host of the
Canadian Design Bloggers Meet Up and those of you who weren't there are sure to know her blog. Either way, Vie's style is impeccable, so let's get to the space she chose for today...

When I first stumbled
across the portfolio of Bates Corkern, I knew I would be making frequent visits
to their site for inspiration.
They create interiors that feel like they have historical relevance. One of the most important aspects
of a home for me is that delicate balance of old and new. It has to be present in the
architecture, floor plan, and furnishings.
A modern and functional
kitchen is a must. The counter height table is perfect for snacks and homework,
or coffee with friends.
I love how the more traditional fixtures tie in to this romantic and
French inspired Dining Room. I
don’t think there is a home on my list of favorites that doesn’t have
traditional elements of French Design. Louis chairs, gold gilded mirrors or
even the romantic doors that open to the outdoors add old world charm.
One of the most
impressive characteristics of this home is all the architectural elements that
have been seamlessly incorporated.
Exposed brick walls that are painted to look like they were original,
rustic wood beams overhead, large round windows, arched hallways, even a
contemporary floating staircase are harmonious and create a very unique
identity. It’s a signature that
you know can only come together when there is a magical chemistry between the
designer and client.
What do you think of this
massive piece of artwork resting in front of the tub? I think it’s brilliant, if you don’t have a view, you can
always bring one in.
And there you have it, my
current favorite. Thanks Staci, for
inviting me to be part of this series.
It’s a pleasure!
Vie

Stunning. Period. I think the bathroom shot is the one I love the most, although it is very hard to choose. Thanks so much again to Vie for participating today, and thanks to all of you reading - be sure to stop by
Verdigris Vie for more fantastic posts from Vie!
Love the character that a painted brick wall gives and LOVE that big piece of art in front of the tub. It makes the bathroom not feel so sterile and cold and makes it feel like a real "room" and gives it such warmth and personality. Beautiful!!
