I've said it before, and I will happily say it again: I love to style a space and create tableaux. It has always been one of my favorite aspects of being an interior designer. I suppose it plays to the inveterate "collector" in me, to be able to group things together, to display objects of beauty or curiosity, or to assemble pieces which would ordinarily not be noticed on their own. Creating a tableau, or a "tablescape" as some call it, is one of the quickest ways to set a tone for a room. It's almost like creating a three dimensional piece of art, a sculpture if you will.
If you missed it, check out my post
"The Art of Tableau: Four Tips For A Better Display" and its companion post
"Contrast Brings Interest." You'll find pointers and tips about creating tableau and displaying interesting and precious objects.
To be continued...
I hope this post inspires you to try your hand at a tableau in your home!
Happy designing!
