Home is Where the Heart Is - Gail and Anne Tarasoff

The Designers - Home is Where the Heart Is - via New York Social Diary

As I mentioned in my last post on this showhouse, Home is Where the Heart Is, some of the designers took part in both this event and the Ronald McDonald Showhouse this season and to great results!


Today's post focus' on the work of the mother and daughter team based in Manhasset, Gail & Anne Tarasoff.


The Laundry - Gail & Anne Tarasoff (Home is Where The Heart Is)

Filled with color and joy, this mud room / laundry room has very creative treatments on the windows and walls that I am sure many could reproduce themselves for all those DIY Lovers Out There!

I really love all horizontal stripes, and here with the mixed use of wallpaper, trim and paint .. it not only seems extremely practical but adds that perfect detail with the right dose for this space.

there is a built in home for the family dog, which of course should not be left out..

and my favorite detail.. the Ronald McDonald House T-Shirt hanging in the laundry area..

which brings us to the other project that this mother and daughter team worked on and that is the bedroom with decorative painted wall pattern in soft blues and neutrals which created this soothing escape for the families that will be using it.

Although this showhouse has ended, it is in support of the American Heart Association and you can always stay tuned for more work to benefit this great cause as well as next year's showhouse!
