my happy place: dave coote design

afternoon installment of "my happy place"...dave coote design.  dave is a furniture and interiors designer.  I absolutely love the use of whites (of course), with the perfect bit of masculinity, mixed with, amazing textures and his knack for using reclaimed and vintage materials.  I do believe this is a designer the Frenches could both agree on (and b too...he's the easy one)...



















I am having the most beautiful Tuesday...hope you are too...xo mrs. french

Yes, yes, yes, I love these rooms. Sigh. Wish I were in any one of them right this moment instead of proctoring an exam under fluorescent lights.

I'm glad you are having a nice Tuesday. Love the photos you posted. The second one with the white table in front of the window had my dreaming of having a studio space just like that. ahhh

I just love all the pictures you posted. My favorite is the white table with the enamel top. I have that exact table, it was my great grandparents and many years ago when I got my first apartment at age 25 my grandfather put a fresh coat of white paint on it and gave it to me for my apartment. It now resides in our 200 year old stone and clapboard farmhouse and I love it more and more each year!!

How dreamy that would be to hire him! I think you described his work beautifully. It is such a lovely blend of masculine with textures and reclaimed materials. So organic. I'm especially drawn to the long mantel of mirrors. Such gorgeous spaces!!!
