Design Inspiration...Erin McLaughlin

The February 2010 Style at Home features the home of editor Erin McLaughlin.  The renovation of her 14.5' wide row house was featured in the now defunct Canadian Home and Country where she was editor. I loved her home then but it is even more beautiful and fresh now.

You get a real sense of Erin's love of horses in her entry way.   The neutral palette with hits of blue hints at the overall colour scheme in her home.

I love this sofa from Crate and Barrel. Its classic lines will never look dated.

The sofa colour is repeated in the painting in the
dining room. I love this pendant - much better
choice than the previous lighting (see below.)

This is how her home looked 5 years ago:

 


(updated February 4, 2010 with photos from the Style at Home site, rather than my poor quality scanned images!  Erin McLaughlin was recently appointed as the new editor of Style at Home.)

  2. Love Erin's style. Can anyone tell me the issue month of the Canadian Home and Country magazine that Erin's home was first featured in 5 years ago? Thanks.
