A beautiful light blue kitchen and breakfast room is in store for you today! I shared a picture once of this beautiful breakfast nook but now I’m sharing more pictures… And did you know there’s a matching kitchen and butler’s pantry?? Yes!

The kitchen and breakfast room was designed by Matthew Quinn of Design Galleria and decorated by Lauren DeLoach Interiors.  Isn’t it STUNNING!?

The check is by Cowtan and Tout.

Antique dining table and chairs.

Brass nailhead details.

Paint colors include Farrow and Ball Light Blue for the cabinets.  The walls are Sherwin Williams Alabaster.

The hood is brass.

Beautiful brass hardware!

The bridge faucet is Rohl – I have the same one!

Check out the Butler’s Pantry! Isn’t it dreamy? Love the beautiful E.F. Chapman chandelier here.

The fabrics are from his new line by Schumacher.  Beautiful wood chest!

He was inspired by Pauline de Rothschild’s Paris Bedroom, pictured here in 1969.

He custom designed this gilded canopy bed.  Linens are from Walker Valentine.

Another view of the bed.  I just can’t stop staring at it!  SO PRETTY!

Love the window covering too.

Even this lamp shade I am crushing on!

The carpet is beautiful too! I love the chinoiserie bed table.   The blue velvet chair!

Look at this “tent”! It’s the dressing room! Seriously, could it get any cuter? I love the way the little bench has the stripes and then trim matches the above trim in the ceiling!

Look at the ceiling of this tent!

The beautiful Gracie chinoiserie wallpaper is just a dream.

Oh, and he did a bathroom in blue and white! Basketweave marble floors. Venetian style mirror. Beautiful shower curtain, although not really needed because of the glass door, but that’s okay I LOVE it!

Lattice and Trellis Rooms – What’s Old is New Again

We use affiliate links in our posts and our site. This means if you make a purchase using these links, we may earn a small commission. You don’t pay a cent more than you would otherwise! Our full disclosure is available under About.

Someone asked me on Instagram about trellis rooms since we are seeing them become more popular – are they just another fad or are they here to stay?

via Anthony Baratta

My answer: Well, trellis rooms never left! Classic design is just that – classic.  It doesn’t follow trends.  Perhaps more people are interested in it, but it’s always been around.  As with a lot of decorating “trends”, a lot of them have actually been around for a while but we’ve forgotten about them.

The trellis word has been around since the 12th century, coming from the French word “treille”.  It wasn’t until King Louis XIV made it popular and his landscaper Andre Le Notre constructed the beautiful Pavillon Frais at Versailles!

Le Pavillon Frais at Versailles, 1751. (Side note to self- how did I miss this? I have been there twice! Like I needed another reason to go back!)

Lattice, latticework and fretwork are used to describe the framework that is trelliage – ornamental design of strips of wood or metal.

Below are painted murals in the Schonbrunn palace in Vienna from the 1770s.
Bergl Rooms at Schönbrunn palace in Vienna

Elsie de Wolfe created the Trellis room at the Colony club, NY in 1905.

So this “trend’ has been around for years – it’s just not at Crate and Barrel and Pottery Barn so the masses are not going to see it!

In the winter garden, Jean Louis Deniot designed the armchairs, cocktail table, chandelier, urn, and borne, which is upholstered in a Romo velvet; the mirror-and-trellis wall is custom made, the curtains are of Indian linen, and the marble flooring was inspired by the dining room floor at the Château de Groussay. Via Elle Decor here.

I love these latticework rooms! They are all so stunning!  Makes me wish I had built one in my house!

Below a trellis folly was created for the Chanel Haute Couture Spring/Summer show last year. Perhaps that is why we are seeing latticework become more popular recently!

Either way, latticework is here to stay – it never left!  If you are thinking about doing something with trellis I say go for it!

Bergl Rooms at Schönbrunn palace in Vienna

I posted the above picture on my Instagram and thought I would share the rest of these beautiful rooms!  Maria Therese (Marie Antoinette’s Mother) suffered from the heat of the Summer so in the last decade of her life she had these garden rooms built on the ground floor of her palace to overlook the gardens.  Bergl Rooms at Schönbrunn palace in Vienna

Johann Wenzel Bergl painted the murals which included exotic landscapes and formal Baroque gardens.    Today these are known as the Bergl rooms.

This week I am inspired by this beautiful restored Georgian house located in Somerset, England.

Purchased by designer Sophie Hale and husband Roland. Ptolemy Dean was responsible for the painstaking restoration, which won a Georgian Group award in 2015.  The article is from House and Garden.

The plasterwork on this staircase is fabulous! Love the painting too!

You know you’re in England because of all of the Wellies! Made me smile.
