Sunday Saves In-Depth: Cherry & Tomato Reds, Sky Blue and Sunny Yellows
Summer in a palette!
This nostalgic, sun-drenched palette delivers the punchy, party tone we’ve been waiting for and craving. In my mind, summer is synonymous with Italy—it seems to always be the first place I turn when dreaming up a summer moodboard. Read on to see how this edition of Sunday Saves came together.
Vogue Italia / A photo we all know and love… from the floral linens to the blue-trimmed pasta bowls and lush seaside setting, this scene will forever inspire summer parties. We always start designing with a moodboard, and this image has made its way onto quite a few!
“Postcard from Portofino” for Vogue, December 1992 / 1992 or 2025? Christy Turlington in a red gingham sundress and sunny yellow bandana, perfectly paired with Portofino—and especially perfect for the palette I was curating. Inspo shared by Sororite Vintage.
Lisa Corti / This setting encompasses an ideal Italian summer tablesetting. Eyeing the Indian Tiger Red porcelain set for an upcoming summer ’scape—paired with the Sabre Ivory Bistro flatware, a forever classic.
La Plage Parisienne designed by Martin Brudnizki / The cherry red paired with those seaside tones…perfection! Brudnizki also recently redesigned @belmondhotelsplendido, and I cannot wait to see what he’s done!
Zsuzsanna Nyul Ceramics / Zsussana x Moda x Cabana is a collab I am here for! Adding these Damask dinner plates to cart as we speak.
Jane Schulak Michigan Bedroom / Jane has the most eclectically chic taste, and I’ve loved exploring her home through @theworldofinteriors. Fun fact: she co-wrote At The Artisans’ Table with David Stark (a favorite design collaborator and dear friend.) It’s a coffee table book I am always turning to for design inspiration.
LA VESTE / It’s a mood… and I’m here for it with tomato red and butter yellow.
Aquazurra / If I wasn’t a bit daunted by the stiletto height… these scream summer! Maybe the matching clutch is more my speed.
Florida Guest Room Design / Could there be a breezier summertime bedroom? And seriously good piped draping inspo thanks to @johnstefanidis.
