Ombre is everywhere. Not just in home decor, but in fashion and beauty as well. The ombre hairstyle has become extremely popular, as has the look been translated to jeans, dresses, t-shirts, nails – you name it. We can’t forget about in cooking as well – ombre cakes are all over Pinterest! And we can’t forget ombre flower arrangements as well.
But what about ombre in home decor? From walls and staircases to artwork and home accessories, the ombre effect has made its way to plenty of home decor elements. Personally, I don’t know if I can trust my skills enough to be able to recreate the effect perfectly, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting to try, especially something like the art work above.
What do you think about ombre in home decor? Do you love this look or are you not much of a fan?

This series of cork and steel stools by Timothy John was designed for New Zealand fashion house, Thanks , who is just expanding into home fashions. Called Sidekick, the stools are reminiscent of old school beakers, the ones we used to use in chemistry class. A lightweight, portable stool, the design is inspired by the cork tops that are placed inside science beakers and the powder-coated steel base gives it a more glass-like transparent feeling

Israeli designer Hagit Pincovici is a third generation artisan and continues the legacy of solid craftsmanship but adds her own modern aesthetic to her work. She designed the A line chest of drawers for the Italian design label Colè . The sleek looking unit features drawers stacked in a skewed fashion with red handles aligned down the front. What looks like three drawers is actually six. I love the long tapered legs on the piece and that it sits up higher
