I have a file where I tuck away pictures that totally resonate with me, images of spaces that I want to come back to when I {hopefully} renovate/build my dream home one day! Hey, a girl can dream right?
Well, this home that I am posting fits perfectly into this category. EVERY room in this house is going to be tucked away into my 'dream house' file. I just about melted when I laid my eyes on it in this months Style at Home. Designer Colleen McGill added sparkle and flair in a sophisticated way with lucite, silver, and crystal. The paneling is perfect, and the creamy white and grey palette makes my monochromatic-loving-heart swoon! {images via McGill Design Group and Style at Home}.
And here it is in the magazine, all dolled up for Christmas:

And the entry way is my favorite part, funny thing is that it reminds me so much of another photo that I have had in my dream house file for a couple of years now, check it out:
Notice the similarity? I die for this look! The oversized mirror all the way to the floor with a table/counter placed in front is nothing but glam. Go big or go home! So needless to say, I must have this look somewhere in my home one day.
I have also always been drawn to the tufted banquette, and there's a lovely example of this in the living room:
Isn't it stunning? So, do you have a 'dream house' file, or am I the only crazy one? Spill the beans cause I am dying to know!

Yes! I think I agree, that's my dream house, too. The whole home is done to perfection! thanks for sharing. definitely a keeper. xxoo
Yes, this definitely is a stunning home! I love the oversized mirrors too. Just.. luxurious.
Yup, this home pretty much sums it up for me. The thing I love most is paneled walls - it's such a gorgeous starting point before anything else is added into a room and screams 'quality'. Everything else is just icing on the cake! :)
Gorgeous...love how that chic little round mirror travels all around the home as well...wink/wink...
I looove the style of this house - totally saving some of these into my "dream house" folder (yes, I have one too!).

I'd say "dream home" is a good description. And I'm totally with you on hearting all things grey and tufted!
Love these pics, they are getting added to my house inspirations pics folder ;)
Does anyone know where that little round black mirror is from? (The one travelling from room to room)
