Stephen Shubel ~ New Design Crush



My latest design crush is Stephen Shubel
who uses wonderful French influences in
his work. I completely fell in love with his
own home in Sausalito. Shubel's own home
in Sausalito is a 1906 Fisherman's cottage
that he overhauled to his own style.

I love the above living room with the floors
done in contrasting colors. The texture it
creates is quite lovely but subtle.



The numbered dining chairs are such
a brilliant idea. Something unexpected
but done in such a classy way.



A closer look at one of the numbered chairs.
I really liked how he outlined the welting in
black which is a bit of a twist.



You can tell he has furnished his place with
many antiques and flea market finds.





This bedroom looks so good in whites and
black accents in such an understated way.
It reminds me of a chic French country home.


Bright pops of yellow - Stephen Shubel is
known for his propensity towards yellows
and oranges.



What a cozy nook for a bed!






The mastser bedroom with more yellow.
The gilt root rest is a really nice touch.



A look at those beautiful floors that extend
into the really homey kitchen and a fabulous
display of his platter ware.


Last but not least, his very charming desk.

Francophile or not, it's hard not to fall in
love with such a lovely cottage by the sea.
