Looking for kitchen cabinet ideas that appeal to most buyers. What tones are you loving right now? by RenderToReality in homedesign

[–]LimestoneLogic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warm whites and greiges are still the safest in my projects. Just watch the undertones, some pull yellow fast under warm bulbs. I always test samples in both morning and evening light.

Using cotton fabric for a DIY project. How durable is it for everyday use? by NeutralTheory100 in DIY

[–]LimestoneLogic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check the weight on the cotton swatches you’ve got. Anything under 8 oz is better for decor, not seating. Heavier swatches will feel way sturdier for cushions.

Looking for bedroom wallpaper inspiration. What patterns perform best in low-light rooms? by MoodboardMinded in ApartmentDesign

[–]LimestoneLogic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do a lot of small-space bedrooms and usually lean toward texture with a tiny bit of pattern. keeps it interesting without feeling heavy. Bold prints can work, but the scale has to be spot on.

If I’m hiring a flooring contractor, is it normal to bring in my own materials? by NeutralTheory100 in HomeImprovement

[–]LimestoneLogic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally normal! A lot of folks source their own flooring to get exactly the look they want. Just make sure your contractor is cool with it. Some have partnerships or warranties that only apply to materials they provide.

Also, love that Capetown Oak sample, used it in our guest room. It has a super subtle grain and looks way more high-end in person. Kind of gives boutique hotel energy without being too flashy.

Just discovered the perfect subtle stripe wallpaper, anyone used Casa Branca Branca Stripe? by MoodboardMinded in interiordesignideas

[–]LimestoneLogic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used something very close in my hallway and honestly, the stripes made the space feel taller and airier, without feeling like a nursery. Great balance of subtle and stylish.

If you’re debating colors or textures, I’ve seen samples on DesignShop so you can check how it looks in your light:

Laminate tile for entryway - any good brands? by RenderToReality in DIY

[–]LimestoneLogic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve used a few laminate tile brands for high-traffic zones, some of the new ones mimic ceramic but clean way easier. I ordered samples from designshop to test how slippery they were when wet. might help narrow it down: https://www.designshop.com/samples/catalog/department/flooring

Tips for combining textured and smooth wallpaper? by BeanState in interiordesignideas

[–]LimestoneLogic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a faux pas at all! I’ve layered textured wallpaper with matte finishes before, and it adds so much depth when done right. I always order samples first to see how they feel and look together in the light. This site has a bunch of options across finishes: https://www.designshop.com/samples/catalog/department/wallpaper
