Design Tip- Contemporary Living
Make the most of any space, small or large.
Slick Cubes provide additional seating areas for large or informal gatherings. Both functional and stylish, the cubes double as extra seating and storage. Break out of beige land to create a fun, hip, fresh resting place at the end of your day. Green is the color of energy and growth, look beyond the Honey White and dive into Granny Smith Green or Bamboo...it's one of my favorite colours for a bedroom. So indulge yourself in vases, bowls, and pieces that bring you joy. Use colourful accents and accessories to create movement and depth within a room. Play with scale and color in ways you'd be timid to try with larger more expensive furniture. Accessories are so forgiving and affordable it would be criminal not to experiment. So indulge yourself in vases, bowls, and pieces that bring you joy.

3 Inexpensive Ways to Get a New Summer Look
Pick a New Palette If you've always had darkly painted walls in your home, it may be time to pick a new colour palette for summer. Think beach cottage and cool tones to help you pick just the right shade of paint. You don't have to paint an entire room to get the desired effect either. Instead, try painting one main wall, in a colour like cool sky blue, to let the sunshine in. This will save you a lot of time and money, too.
Get the Best View in the House Want a room with a view? Try rearranging furniture around windows or patio doors to take advantage of the view outside. Move your favourite reading chair, or even your kitchen table, away from the wall and next to an open window to put the room in a whole new light. With a little imagination and a strong set of arms, you can easily transform your home for summer.
Put it on DisplaySummer is the perfect time to refresh the look of a dull space by updating the artwork on your walls. Brighten a dim hallway or add some colour to that darkly painted wall by updating your artwork. For example, you could replace a snowy mountain print with bright, vibrant sunflowers. It's easy to create the perfect summer backdrop with a few strategically placed pieces of artwork displayed in the right frame
