Friday Five // Finishes Make Me Smile

Ever since I started my internship, I've been falling in love with so, so, so many different finishes. I'm talking anything and everything - stones, textiles, wallcoverings, you name it (! I guess it kind of makes sense that I've ended up in interior design, doesn't it?) I always love stumbling across new materials to swooooon over, cause I find they help me brainstorm my way through a design challenge. 

Spoiler alert: At my internship, if I'm down in the library, I'll snap a pic and share it to Instagram. If you also love all the different finishes interior design has to offer, follow me at @Lgillaspey or the hashtag, #finishesmakemesmile.

My five for Friday today is a handful of finishes I've fallen in love with of late:

I do love a knotty rug :-) Lucky by @danskina_rugs (distributed by @maharamstudio) would add so much texture to a room! #bedesigntagious #finishesmakemehappy

My new career goal may be to make this cowhide (@edelmanleather Cavallini, Blonde C23) work in a space. I don't know how, but there's something about it that intrigues me. I would love to see the possibilities!! #edelmanleather #interiordesign #finishesmakemehappy #bedesigntagious

As I'm sure my grad school friends can attest to, I have a problem when it comes to triangles. I love them! // @wolfgordon Fragmentation and Metaphorosis (drapery) (wallcovering) are my jam. #finishesmakemesmile
