Museo Centro de Arte Reina Sofia

I just got back from Europe and I have so many pictures I would love to share. One of the first buildings we went to in Madrid was the Reina Sofia Museum, right across Atocha's train station. What I like about the building is that you can see when the restorations took place, you can easily separate the architecture styles. In 1980 Antonio Fernandez de Alba incorporated 3 amazing glass and steel lifts that give you access to every single floor of the building. Inside we got to see some of the best artists of the 20th Century: Picasso, Miro and Dali.

Coco's Room

For a Coco Chanel inspired bedroom I decided it had to be simple, classic and elegant. Never out of style. Neutral colors and some touches of luxury with key accent pieces. My favorite piece of the room is a MDF cabinet designed by kamina&C. I think it goes perfect with the Chanel style since the texture of the cabinet resembles those quilted bags we love so much! Another great piece I found after hard searching for it is a "Pearl Chandelier" designed in 2006 by Hanna Brogård. Then I wanted the full length mirrors like the ones she had on her Paris Atelier, the mirror I chose is called Snowhite Full Length and can be found at GoModern.com. Kartell lamps are on top of my list, whenever I get a chance to incorporate them in my designs I go for it. This time I've chosen the Kartell Bourgie Lamp in gold to work as one of my accent pieces. To keep the french spirit alive I decided to include a french vintage chair from Jayson Home & Garden. My room wouldn't be completed with some art work, a painting by Isaac Israeli "A woman before Van Gogh's Sunflowers" to keep my gold yellow colors flowing. Last but not least, a bouquet of fresh camelias, something I am pretty sure Coco would love to have in her room.
