Happy "Monday" guys! For all of you who got a 3-day weekend (I didn't), hopefully you got to enjoyed it! I'm here to say welcome to your week (why is it always that 4-day weeks seem even longer than the normal 5?), and to ease you back into the swing of things I have some colorful eye candy in the form of an Austin, TX property designed by Allison Crawford. The home is an eclectic mix of mid-century modern, Hollywood glam, and even some bohemian vibes. There's definitely a lot to take in, but it all comes together very nicely in my opinion. And the best part? You and some friends could actually stay in this house for a little Texas vacay just steps away from downtown Austin. Tour the home and all it's glory in the photos below (photography by Alyssa Resenheck for Domino).
This property is one of two (the other house residing in Nashville) managed by Allison Crawford's budding boutique-hotel-experience-meets-Airbnb-convenience brainchild, HOTELette. If you've ever wondered what it's like to live in a perfectly Pinterest-worthy home then this is your chance, not to mention that the opportunities for great Instagram photos are plenty. The home is definitely a must for anyone seeking the comforts of home that Airbnb conveniently provides but with more privacy and a bit of the luxury and attention to detail typified by the growing number of thoughtfully-designed boutique hotels.
In general, this home is just completely stunning. It contains a mix of old and new, beiges and pinks (oh my God, the pink artwork and textiles...), traditional furniture shapes as well as some not-so-typical ones (see the white console table and black velvet end chairs in the living room above and the wooden hand-shaped chair in the pink bedroom below). What's impressive to me is the way that everything throughout the home is perfectly balanced and weighted, with no shortage of bold color moments dispersed amongst more neutrally-designed spaces. You can sit in the cozy light-bathed breakfast nook and enjoy a nice brunch or cup of coffee while also catch some luxurious rest in the comfort of the house's Brinjal purple bedroom. I kid you not, purple (see below). Someone is definitely taking some queues from the Pantone Color of the Year.
So what do you say, are you ready for a vacation to Austin? If you loved this home tour, be sure to also check out Domino Mag's tour of the Nashville property here. With two really great properties under her belt already, I can't wait to see which cities HOTELette and Allison Crawford set their sights on next!
