Turquoise Home Eco-Friendly & Modern

Oh, my God! You can not imagine how excited I was when I found this house in Kansas City Homes and Gardens. I'm a fan of modern interior and industrial design, but rarely so I think this, along with my favorite color. Not only inside but also outside?! The space belongs to Debbie Glassberg, a graduate of the prestigious School of Design, Rhode Island, an industrial designer and accomplished. And an obvious fan of turquoise. "My car is this color of sea foam," said Glassberg. "It is a serene color that I followed through every house he lived in" I've heard. This space is so clean and smooth, but given the fabulous art collection of furniture and a great sense of depth and comfort. The rest of the green house is a delight to all, and the article on the topic worth reading.

Rustic Retreat

I never remember stumbling on a house quite like this! Figure nest in the South African Home magazine and photographed by Adriaan Oosthuizen, this magnificent Paarl Valley homes have a compromise in style between the two owners. He hoped that the elements of a rustic farmhouse filled with leather and wood, she wanted to femininity. I am particularly fond of lighting in each photo. And the fridge! I would like a week here to relax!

Hi House of Turquoise readers. This is Coco. My blog's name is COCOCOZY.

I'm guest posting here for Erin as she takes a little well deserved vacation! I was so honored when Erin emailed me last week and asked if I would guest post about my favorite turquoise rooms. So here goes!

I love a room infused with turquoise blue. There is something invigorating, exciting and cheerful about about a blue room! I love the color turquoise. I have a wonderful dose of it in my living room in the Hollywood Hills in a huge piece of art, a turquoise blue chandelier in bathroom, had a load of turquoise blue outside in my outdoor living space on my deck. Makes me so happy to see the blue for some reason. How about you?

Here are may favorite blue spaces these days...

Bridgehampton Beauty

When I get to peek inside a home in the Hamptons, I know it's going to be a good day. And to think most aren't even filled with my favorite color, as this shingle-style home in Bridgehampton is! The home and its owner Todd Rome, president of Blue Star Jets, were recently profiled in 27east. Although their primary residence is a townhouse on the Upper East Side, Todd and his wife Vanessa (who decorated the home) and their 4 children spend their summers here. I think my favorite room is the kitchen...those lanterns are so cool! You can read more and see all the pictures of this fabulous home here!

Let the countdown begin...today is the last day to enter my giveaway before I turn 30! I'll announce the lucky winner tomorrow morning! Good luck!

Malibu Beach Cottage

When my friend Candi of Candace Rose fame shared this Malibu beach home featured several years ago in California Magazine (and Project EcoArt) belonging to Juicy Couture co-founder Pamela Skaist-Levy, I was completely smitten! Like Candi, my dream is to live in a beach house by the ocean (surprise surprise), so seeing these images makes my heart beat a little faster. All the glorious white, mixed with striking punches of blue and turquoise...what's not to love?! Certainly that killer ocean view too! *sigh*

Roberts Erickson Design

I'm dishing out the eye-candy today, complements of Roberts Erickson Design (remember that fab bedroom they designed?) The owners of this eclectic Myrtle Beach home featured in Grand Strand Magazine live here full-time, but still wanted to have a vacation vibe. They were very adamant about keeping things neutral, so pops of colors were brought in to create a look that coexists with the ocean-side landscape. The result is beachy, but not in a literal way. What I love the most is that the couple didn't start all over from scratch, they wanted to keep a lot of their original furniture and accessories. They just wanted an update. I'd say they got that and more! Too read all about their home, head here!

Elsa Soyars

I am really digging the work of Elsa Soyars, an interior designer born in Portugal. If you take a peek around her portfolio, you'll notice all of her rooms are like the ones above...tranquil and calm, yet elegant and refined. But it's the first image that I'm madly in love with. The earthy color palette and all the light streaming in...so beautiful! The bright Trina Turk pillow in the last couple images is just fab too...I love her peacock fabric so much I could eat it right up! Mmm mmm!
