And talk about modern - this is like a 3D version of some of Mondrian’s greatest paintings. In addition to fantastic design attributes, the company, designer and philosophies of Iola Design are inspiring and make this piece simply irresistible!

I’ve never seen a color turn out so true. There is also American Tradition found at Lowes; which has some new exciting colors. Continue reading ‘Bought Your Loft - What Next? Paint!’
