Is this a bad idea for a color scheme for a modern/contemporary bedroom?

Posted on October 30th, 2009 by admin

Polar white on the walls and black on the trim. My furniture is all black(my only furniture in my room is my bed and a drawer), so I thought it would go well with black trim. I already bought the paint then realized its probably a horrible idea. What do you think? What do you recommend? I want a sort of modern/artsy kind of look and feel to it, which is why I barely have furniture. Also I have wood floor, but I’m thinking of buying a rug. So any tips?

well are you a female or male? if you are a female: I would not use black trim BUT that’s just me. However It will probably look better than you think though. You could get a few paintings that have have bright colors along with alittle bit of black in the painting that would bring out the black on the trim. Definitely get a rug and make sure there is some black in your rug that will accent the black trim. you can always change the trim if you don’t like it. If you can, buy you a green potted floor plant for your room. Accent your room using the colors of orange, yellows, maybe red.

what is the going rate on moving companies loading and moving your furniture?

Posted on October 30th, 2009 by admin

changing residence. Cannot lift heavy furniture (TV, sofa,etc. Will need moving company to load furniture into truck, drive to new place approximately 15 miles away and unload into new place.
What is the going rate for this in california these days. is it priced by size of load or time?

No matter how far you are moving they charge by the hour and your driveway space and number of stairs. If you are having them pack for you that will be a charge. We have done both professional movers to different states and local movers. A local move is easier and much cheaper as they will charge you by the hour but you need everything properly packed and ready to go. Locals will still charge you for access so you have to ask if they do. We just did a very small distance move of around 16 miles with a great local company that did not charge extra for stairs and long driveways for well under $1000 for a huge home of furniture but our previous interstate moves were always around $10,000. So do your homework and call around. Your move is a short distance. You should be able to work out a deal.

Does anyone know of a store/website with Middle Eastern style furniture bedroom sets?

Posted on October 30th, 2009 by admin

I went to Israel this summer, and they have the most beautiful furniture there. I have been browsing websites over here, and I cannot find anything remotely as nice as the ones in Israel. I am sick of boring Ikea bedroom sets. I want something with taste and style. any recommendations?

What color furniture would go well with apricot/peach colored walls?

Posted on October 30th, 2009 by admin

Friends have said go with dark colors, like chocolate, but I think that’s too dark! I’m looking for living room furniture. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Chocolate WOULD look amazing! Maybe you could find an apricot base that is darker than the wall with chocolate accents?

Apricot is an orange color and its complimentary color would be blue. Go with a medium blue with chocolate accent, or just plain blue.

Blue, chocolate, darker apricot, a reddish brown would look nice also as long as it’s more brown than red. Medium brown. Try to avoid really light colors unless it’s blue. Keep it medium to dark otherwise.

I would highly advise a light-medium blue.

Where do interior designers get their furniture catalogues?

Posted on October 30th, 2009 by admin

How do I even start? By flipping through design magazines and going to the furniture websites from the advertisements?
Is there a good website with good design resources? I already know about homeportfolio.com

Once you have a business tax ID number, you are able to contact companies to request their wholesale catalogs. Highpoint, N.C. is the biggest and best furniture show each year. You should definitely be going to that and you can request catalogs there as you visit the showrooms. The Highpoint Show will keep you abreast of the changing trends, fabrics, etc. each year. Yes, you can go to a company’s website as well. They have a separate link for those with Tax ID numbers.

Louis XIV Mercantilsm?

Posted on October 30th, 2009 by admin

What is the origin of Frances Mercantilism?
What are some of the economic measures taken by King Louis XIV of France and Louis Colbert to make France an economic power?
How did France raise taxes and increase production and start producing find luxury items for exportation such as lace, fune clothing, furniture, champagne, ect.
How did French luxury exports invade the European market?

Protectionism, less imports and more exports. Spain didn’t adopted it and ruined his economy however Spain gained a lot of gold from the "new world", but they imported goods from Germany, England and France and their gold went to these countries. France exported the silk from Lille, guns from Tulle.

What kind of curtains for a more contemporary look with this kind of furniture?

Posted on October 30th, 2009 by admin

The walls are neutral light tan. The furniture is dark wood and same style as this picture. The bedding is off white. I want a neutral look that is also contemporary.

i would chose a dark color full length curtain it will be contemporary and a little dramatic..either a solid color or a large vertical stripe would add a little color and interest..i would also use curtains that have gromets or other industrial style hardware. ..look up candice olsen’s show that should give you some good ideas as well. Good Luck
