Lisa Fine

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;">I have said how much I admire Lisa Fine <a href="http://bellevivir.blogspot.com/2009/04/most-beautiful-childrens-rooms.html" target="_blank">before</a>. Her Paris pad was featured in <a href="http://www.pointclickhome.com/building_remodeling/articles/self_portrait">Elle Decor</a> a while ago becoming one of my all time favorites. Every Wednesday I will feature one unique home that inspires me to not be afraid of using what I like and love in my house. After all, our homes should be nothing if not filled with things that make us happy regardless what magazines try to talk us into.</div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNtOpuSxKxdfKkKkOsHM9S0WukdglNRKelIm1fHukyA1qMttcyIIHKnewxIEmbpB2QAroWMAZCae82zZ9SnlH9zmHglIWqOACTriiMD_0HJ3sEszJ_sZIsvvZjQWL3U-bh4hQT9EmZjhQ/s1600-h/self_portrait_03.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5386689236712890258" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNtOpuSxKxdfKkKkOsHM9S0WukdglNRKelIm1fHukyA1qMttcyIIHKnewxIEmbpB2QAroWMAZCae82zZ9SnlH9zmHglIWqOACTriiMD_0HJ3sEszJ_sZIsvvZjQWL3U-bh4hQT9EmZjhQ/s400/self_portrait_03.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 370px; width: 461px;" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: left;">In the living room we can see the traditional herringbone wood floors continuing into the tented parlor. Light pink walls serve as background for the eclectic art wall. </div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvCnwZDRC4iqXss8mdr2Bq0AsdoDgzLD2peAyW0JjKnvUfMOhrSmjaISkVpVDqz9n2dBgwQbAiYdEqpNADKsYHlqb3RLK4kgmmk4IIloxMzLlQTXNdTB5qB9vE8q9772VeMFPjgCxyI-s/s1600-h/self_portrait_05.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5386689252631554754" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvCnwZDRC4iqXss8mdr2Bq0AsdoDgzLD2peAyW0JjKnvUfMOhrSmjaISkVpVDqz9n2dBgwQbAiYdEqpNADKsYHlqb3RLK4kgmmk4IIloxMzLlQTXNdTB5qB9vE8q9772VeMFPjgCxyI-s/s400/self_portrait_05.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 378px; width: 468px;" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Here in her bedroom we see a more modern approach. Antique prints are equally framed behind two iron chairs and a mirrored cocktail table. Below, the wall behind the headboard is covered in silk, becoming the focal point. The headboard, one of Lisa's gorgeous creations, was hand-embroidery in India. A sofa at the end of the bed is upholstered in ikat and the Gio Ponti mirrors on the wall add the final details to this gorgeous bedroom.</div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFdJxJp2S_dldXaFvU6_NblAG61XWGkQJezNx1RmkV55OPgXdHuuABPNoxBHfHscPEviHRWK2pgeP2Eidm-W6b2iYAx5UpSlnV0lvPszgKKL9ll8mBvrcr_BZvLVcBcjG32xhrCVbHWxs/s1600-h/self_portrait_07.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5386689258775246098" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFdJxJp2S_dldXaFvU6_NblAG61XWGkQJezNx1RmkV55OPgXdHuuABPNoxBHfHscPEviHRWK2pgeP2Eidm-W6b2iYAx5UpSlnV0lvPszgKKL9ll8mBvrcr_BZvLVcBcjG32xhrCVbHWxs/s400/self_portrait_07.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 357px; width: 447px;" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-ISTYlyXrnDUJSjycKnHctZ8vYLHO9a2nDFIZZ9dyakVJIJbaoyXnf-TdjvUXBurfVu4S0AYkhWV1iTwvV2Y-Hl-TOuHN7iM1KzHCiD3NEwyER7-bvO2mfiAg9N3SqqOSA5bMFhciF10/s1600-h/self_portrait_04.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5386689241724171922" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-ISTYlyXrnDUJSjycKnHctZ8vYLHO9a2nDFIZZ9dyakVJIJbaoyXnf-TdjvUXBurfVu4S0AYkhWV1iTwvV2Y-Hl-TOuHN7iM1KzHCiD3NEwyER7-bvO2mfiAg9N3SqqOSA5bMFhciF10/s400/self_portrait_04.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 376px; width: 465px;" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;">Other side of the big living room. The leather screen is hand painted. Love the proportion of the velvet sofa.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-5uElb0rA4KoaKE0Khy2PI672sJZzMUTse25Wj5iP94ltSBAB1QUABhB2SLr2O5DxxGoF6F9_3mFcpBV3unlvqmOaE6LiDVYvfNvdtPLHaMxnXTYZX8N0lv4IdgaUZ675kxeSLbg2mFA/s1600-h/self_portrait_06.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5386689256807066978" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-5uElb0rA4KoaKE0Khy2PI672sJZzMUTse25Wj5iP94ltSBAB1QUABhB2SLr2O5DxxGoF6F9_3mFcpBV3unlvqmOaE6LiDVYvfNvdtPLHaMxnXTYZX8N0lv4IdgaUZ675kxeSLbg2mFA/s400/self_portrait_06.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; height: 569px; width: 472px;" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: left;">In the very Parisian dining room Fine chose to mirror the walls around the room reflecting the beautiful Chinoiserie mirrored paintings. The black frames of the paintings blend with the black on the chairs and table. The crystal chandelier should be even more gorgeous when lit at night, sending light all across the room. This space perfectly mixes color with various influences to construct a beautiful room.</div></div></div>
