Interiors: A Pink and Purple Palette

Charleston Home by Angie Hranowsky, Lonny Magazine

Although pink and purple are the stuff of little girl dreams (mine included), the combination can also work well in adult-friendly spaces. The colors are used prominently in this design by Angie Hranowsky, whose Charleston home is featured in the April issue of Lonny. Throw in custom textiles, vintage furnishings, and a mix of artwork for an eclectic-but-cozy living space. The young Desiré would approve!

Angie raised the glamour quotient in the master bedroom with a gleaming canopy bed and floor-to-ceiling drapes. The muted colors provide a "soothing break" from the boldness found elsewhere.

Desiré Greene

Desiré is a designer, blogger, and lover of all things glamorous. Though primarily a self-taught decorator, Desiré studied at The Art Institute, where she honed a distinct aesthetic largely influenced by the Modern Glamour movement, the theme of her popular design blog, Sukio. Not only is she considered a "closet fashionista," discreetly stashing handbags and shoes whenever possible, but, as an MIT graduate, she’s also an undercover nerd. Fashion, nerdom, and several years as a Washingtonian have combined to shape her unique perspective on interior design.
