Mad for Madrid

 Today’s ditto post features a stunning living room from Spanish designer, Luis Puerto. His designs are gorgeous, and outside of the box from what we tend to see Stateside. I love to head to different continents (in my mind, most of the time!) to be inspired by global influences. So many design details caught my eye, so read on to find out what I would ditto.

This is not the first time I have been in love with a space from Madrid.  That awesome space was also from Nuevo Estilo. Maybe I should just go ahead and subscribe… I certainly seem to be Mad for Madrid!

As you look at this space, you might think “This is way to _____ for me.” I encourage you not to dismiss a space when it does not seem accessible to you. Instead, pull apart the details. Find out what makes it so fabulous. And then bring your favorite ditto-worthy elements into your own home. In other words, Ditto It!!!!

WHAT I LOVE {What I would ditto!}:

1. The chevron flooring! I am actually trying to ditto this in my upcoming kitchen/dining renovation. We are on a mad hunt for an affordable parquet of engineered flooring, in order to save on cost.

2. That sofa, of course! Velvet! That grey-gold fabric is just dreamy!

3. Sculptural art! Why go little when you can go big and have an impact? This would be a great design trick to ditto, and there are plenty of affordable ways to bring large-scale sculpture into your space (my favorite way is repurposing large, vintage items found at flea markets or antique shops)

4. Mirrors, mirrors, everywhere. In circular shapes, rectangular and square. Get that light bouncing around the room. The floor to ceiling mirrors would be tricky to ditto, but definitely not impossible. I especially love the circular mirror between the huge, gorgeous, rectangular windows.

5. Tables and chairs everywhere. This room invites you to sit, and to stay. Ditto.

6. Those windows. Oh so very European! I love how, in Europe, they have tall and slender windows that go all the way to the floor. Sometimes, these windows function as doors as well – even though they have a much slimmer profile than our doors.

7. Interior shutters. This would be a pricey ditto, but what an impact these folding interior shutters would be!

8. Tufting! I am still in love with tufted velvet sofas, and my love is not waning.
