“I absolutely love the color spring palette associated with springtime. Of course there’s soft pastels and lush greenery, but I also enjoy adding in brass because it’s warmth is reminiscent of the sun. The warm golden undertones of brass make any room feel warmer and I love that! Spring is a time when we can finally escape our winter hibernation and spend longer amounts of time outside. My son and I are particularly enjoying spending time swinging in the hammock and feeding baby carrots to bunnies in our backyard. I created the mood board above to highlight French architecture, colorful stone countertops, gardens in bloom and time spent outdoors with our little ones. All these images feel rejuvenating and life-giving to me. I love the personality of natural stone- especially when it has a playful color in it. I also love natural, unstructured gardens that seem to dance along the ground in a playful way. I love spring time and I’m so happy it’s here!” - Tara Miller.

“When painting a picture of Spring, the first image that comes to mind is frolicking in a field of flowers and living in a little cottage surrounded by the beauty of nature. I was inspired by the traditional little villages in Cotswolds, England. It makes me want to bake macarons and take a bike ride though Claude Monet’s luscious garden. Florals are a big aspect of Spring, so I love the idea of bringing nature inside one’s space. My favorite interior designer is Sophie Paterson, and she does an exquisite job of incorporating elegant nature wallpapers in her spaces. Overall, I enjoy the earthy tones and materials with pops of color to make the space come to life and Spring really encapsulates that idea.” - Lara Parker.
