February Designer Dish: Turquoise Spotlight

You may recall our color of the year post from last month’s dish.  We are such fans of this turquoise hue that we wanted to share our top 10 picks for implementing these in your home.  And, the countdown goes…

10.  Islamic tile from Grays Antique Dealers

We love the amazing color and design of this 10th to 15th AD tile. This stand alone piece would be beautiful set in an easel resting on a bookshelf.

9.  Zigzag rug from Jonathan Adler

The use of grey allows for a subtle complement to the turquoise.  We recently used Jonathan Adler’s customizable line to design a  rug and pillows for a client’s media room.

8.  Console table from Somerset Bay

This console table in cotton candy finish would make a great entry piece when paired with upholstered chairs in a beach house or casual cottage.

7.  Underwater painting from Shealeigh’s shop on Etsy

The great composition and use of color in this painting would be beautiful atop an antique wooden chest.

6.  Venetian pillow from Ryan Studio

Rich colors paired with this pillow design and texture make it a glamorous way to add luster to a formal room.

5.  Turquoise mirror from Studio Scroggie

A perfect example of repurposing an outdated gold mirror by adding a fun color.

4. Zinnia knobs from Anthropologie

What an attractive way to add character and pizzazz to an old piece.

3.  Bagan/Peacock fabric from Schumacher

We’re smitten with this silk Celery Kemble design for Shumacher fabrics. Accent with canary yellow lamps or accessories for an unexpected complement.

2.  Garden stool from Emissary

Use this as a side table to add a punch of color within a room. Try a grouping of 4 with cut glass on top as an interesting and eye-cathing coffee table.

1.  Anson Ribbon Pendant fixture  from Urban Electric

This charming fixture continues to draw our attention.  We would love to see this used in a series in a stark white kitchen as large island pendants.
