Spring Break Design Getaway to New Orleans…
For Spring Break our family took a road trip which afforded us plenty of time in the Big Easy for trekking all around the French Quarters, taking a million pics and absorbing as much of the creole flavor that we could muster! A trip to New Orleans is always sensory overload for us as there is so much style and ambiance to experience…
The music, the food, the architecture and of course the people with their creole, cajun accents! Here are some of the wonderful homes we captured…
We are madly in love with Shotgun Doubles which are a very popular duplex design you will find all over New Orleans in varying colors, styles and trim levels! Some have simple shutters while others will have wrought iron rails with extensive scrolling, very detailed trim and gorbels and antique gas lamps on the porch…
A trip down Bourbon Street wouldn’t be complete without stopping in at the Bevolo showroom and factory where they actually hand make each and every one of their amazing gas lamps! These lamps are amazing and it’s poetry in motion to witness their artisans take sheets of copper and mold, form and create these amazing lamps that are shipped all over the globe!
We actually took way more photos but many of which will be used for a current design project we are working on so you will have to stay tuned for more cool design content from our design road trip!
