A Martha Vineyard's Home

There are so many elements I love about this home.  The nautical touches, the subdued, but fun use of color and pattern and all the classical elements running throughout the home.  

I love how colonial this dining room feels.  The above room was the inspiration for my dining room; see our dining room progress here.  

Is that Katie Ridder's Peony pattern in a rug? (above).  I've never seen it as a rug before.  

This home has all my favorites - striped walls, painted floors, spindles, empire lamp shades, gold framed nautical oil paintings, Katie Ridder fabrics, blue and green colors, antique furnishings and colonial touches.  To see more of this home designed by Molly Luetkemeyer (m. design interiors), go here.  

High vs. Low

I am always impressed when I see a high-end designed room created for less.  While, I think you can usually tell which is high-end, I'm amazed with the resources available on a low-budget and a person's creativity.  Creating a room on a low budget without compromising style is a talent.  Check out this room created on both a high and low budget....

In your opinion, which is the high-end room and why?
