Black and white is usually considered a basic. As a large buffalo check it made a statement. This Webster Groves home had an addition added to the back of the house. They built a beautiful new kitchen and breakfast room. The area was full of sunshine and big enough to hold their large family gatherings. The client showed me a photo from a magazine and I recreated what she wanted.
With pale yellow paint on the walls, we jazzed up the windows with these roman shades. It was just the punch this spacious area needed. The treatments were mounted on the wide white woodwork which "framed" my work. Somehow that makes me sound like an artist. Well, I do consider myself "artistic". But, when you put a "frame" around something, I think that could make you an artist. What would Van Gogh say to that?
Anyway, I love the statement these simple roman shades made in this room. The homeowners were happy and that made me happy. Basically, the black and white was just perfect--frame and all.
