RED, WHITE, BLUE, AND AMERICA TOO

Earlier this year, I created a Pinterest board for a home office space in patriotic hues, and I'm mining some of the best rooms for posting here this week. As the designers below prove, this trio of colors can be as festive as a party convention, or as subdued as a boy's nursery. Here's an all-American house tour:

This room decked out in Thaibut patterns - Sulu curtains, pillows in Mandarin, and side chair in Lucas - creates a floral, feminine take on a more traditionally male palette. 

Furbish Studio's living room blends Americana with Africana - eagle topped mirrors are right at home with zebra, cheetah, and tribal baskets.

How light and lovely is this beach cottage room by Mary McDonald? I have a very similar set of black bamboo arm chairs, and they usually look very heavy, but this is a fresh way to use them. 

Here's another beach cottage spread, in the Hamptons, by Amanda Nesbit (via Halcyon Style).

Red, white, and blue gets a light touch in this little boy's room featured in Elle Decor (via Peppermint Bliss).
