We are almost there with our house renovation (downstairs at least ;) and one of the last things that needs to happen before we can move downstairs into our bedroom is adding doors. They are set to arrive today (eeeeek!!)
I don't have anything as cool as the barn doors (above) going in but I loved the picture.
I have a thing for black & white mixed with warm wood tones & then a little bit of color (in accents- especially green!! ;) ;) sprinkled about, so I've settled on doing black doors for our house. We have mostly ivory walls & wood floors & seagrass throughout the house, so I thought doing the doors in black would give me that palette I love. The doors are arriving unpainted & I need to decide on the paint finish today.
I am leaning towards a low or no sheen look & so I loooove the flat look of the barn doors in the pic above..
Here are some really beautiful high-gloss blue doors that are so dark they look black (the reverse of Superman's hair ;):
I love the stark contrast of the black doors (below) against the white and of course in combination with the warm wood floors:
{The books add more of the warmth & age that I love & the purple & green from the lilac arrangement is just the right amount of color for me personally.}
The sheen on these doors below is really pretty:
It's probably a semi-gloss.
And again, it's the wood on that clock that does it for me.
The dutch doors (below) from one of Thomas O'Brien's homes are sooooooo amazing..
{I loooooove this kitchen!!! So simple & spare & fresh!! I love the modern-vintage-farmhouseish feel.}
I've decided on 3 panel doors like this one:
I wanted something that feels both old & modern at the same time. I was looking for some interest, but nothing with any frills or curves.
I think they'll look really similar to this door (below) except I think trim is a bit simpler on mine...
