Trendy Tuesday ~ Black Walls
I briefly talked about black in the home last year, and even created a nursery design with black, but a trend I'm seeing more and more of these days is black walls. Sometimes it's an accent wall, sometimes it's an entire room, but almost always these jet black walls are paired with warm woods and white. They are high contrast, warm and inviting and absolutely divine if you ask me! Take a look!
As an interior designer, I get to see all the emerging trends, and this year’s holiday season is serving up some truly inspiring looks. Whether you’re a minimalist or a maximalist, there’s a style for you. Here are the three decor trends I'm loving right now, and how you can bring them into your own home.
Every fall, designers, homeowners, and colour enthusiasts look forward to Benjamin Moore’s Colour of the Year announcement. It sets the tone for upcoming design trends and reveals what direction interiors are moving toward. This year’s selection, Silhouette AF-655, introduces a sophisticated warmth that feels both familiar and refreshingly current.
One of my favourite things about the holidays is the spirit of giving, so in what is quickly becoming an annual traditions here at IBSL, our team has each created special gift guides just for you filled with our favourite things to give (and receive) this holiday season!

With another season upon us, this gives us an opportunity to freshen up our spaces. Our calendars may say January 1st is the first day of a new year, but in my mind, Spring is the true start to a fresh start where we can deep clean our homes, purge our closest and freshen up our spaces by adding in some new furniture and decor.
There are so many different types of flooring options out there that it can be overwhelming when selecting the right option for your home! When we work with clients, we start by asking a few questions to determine their needs based not only on their aesthetic preferences but also their lifestyle.
Christmas is just around the corner, and if you haven’t started your holiday decorating yet and are in need some inspiration, we thought we’d share what is inspiring us this holiday season!
Fall is here and if you are anything like me, you crave all things cozy as the weather turns. This time of year I love snuggling up by the fire with a warm blanket, sipping on a steaming hot cup of tea or coffee from my favourite mug while reading a good book.
Wallpaper is making a comeback! A lot of interiors have wallpaper incorporated throughout again. The difference with today's wallpaper and the 80’s wallpaper that left you hating the trend is that it is made differently, applied differently and the look is much more modern and tasteful.
Today, we are thrilled to pull back the curtain on Project Blue Horizon, a full-service gut renovation and furnishing project that transformed a cramped, dated apartment into a timeless, contemporary sanctuary.
