The house had a flow, in this situation the color orange. A color carried throughout a house is a great way to create a continuity in the space, but it should be done in moderation. This house is a great example of a bright, eye catching color used in restraint, resulting in an amazing house.
With a bold color just a little goes a long way...
I saved the best for last. Isn't this nook something out of your dreams? Placed in a stairwell, this day bed makes for the most inviting space....Love the tables, pillows, prints...

Great house. So funny that we both did posts on Orange today.
Coffee and cookies today or tomorrow?
I do like the flow of colors
Great house and it just looks like Fall to me.
Nice pictures,
A few weeks ago I did a post about "Accents of Orange". It is a colour that can be used in winter as in summertime!
I love it a lot! But indeed , always use it in moderation!
Here in that house it is well-done!

Hmm, I really like this idea of one color throughout the whole house. It seems my wall color of gray was that, but now I'm thinking about using another pop of color...
I really like how they incorporate dashes of orange throughout. Too much orange and it looks like a bad trip back to the 70s! Funny, orange is my two-year-old's favorite color, so I'm partial to it these days!
That house is gorgeous. I love the orange accents and the way the color ties it all together. I wouldn't mind living in this space! I love the two adirondack chairs outdoors. I could spend so many fall days curled up in a blanket, sipping on tea and reading! :)
That kitchen is really gorgeous! I also feel that last shot is perfection. the colors are great and those tables...oh my gosh! love
you and brooke crack me up when you have similar posts. true friends who think a like.
what a PERFECT house!!!! I just LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about it!!!
such a great place!!
love all the white with splashes of color
:)
i like all the pops of orange
delightful!
so instead of having too much blue in my house, I'm just going to call it "continuity!"
Love orange decor- it is done so well in this house!
Love the daybed, I want one now :)
I have that dandelion canvas in the bathroom only mine is in kelly green instead of orange, I got mine at Urban Outfitters! I love it!
Lovely images! And I totally agree with you about restraint. I used to love big swaths of bright colors, but my tastes have finally grown up, and now I really love pops of color, instead. Now, I have to paint over my tangerine-colored living room (no, I'm not kidding, the walls are tangerine! :-)!)
I saw this home a while back and I was completely smitten by it. That last nook is fantastic.
Wow! I love it! Orange is one of my favorite colors!!!! So it's great to see it used in many different rooms. I love the flow of it all!
Now off to enter the give-away. I totally forgot to the other day!
I'm not a huge fan or orange, but I do like how touches of the color continued throughout the house.
I love the room with the daybed. The orange goes really well from space to space. Love it!
I see that 'orange' was a popular post this week. My post was inspired by an orange wall in a cute little cafe in the hotel were I stayed last weekend. I remember the 70s so I tend to resist any thought of using orange as a decorating color, but it seems to be fresher the second time around. I enjoyed your room.
Love orange as an accent colour.

I'm drooling over that delicious kitchen! I want a white cabinet redo so bad I could taste it!
SO glad you posted this. Orange is my absolute favorite color right now.
I guess we're feeling fall coming on.
