Designers Who Inspire. #6 Megan Young

Megan Young's interiors can be described as timeless, classic, and elegant.  There is very little that is trendy in her designs.  Her style is traditional with a twist.  The twist being the vibrant and modern colors and patterns that she masterfully mixes in her otherwise traditional rooms.  The pictures below are of her home that was featured in Southern Living Magazine, along with some from her portfolio, which you must check out here.

This room is so fresh and airy.  Orange, light blue and white look so great together.

The bamboo chairs look great with the tulip table.  It's good to mix styles to keep your rooms from being boring.

The dining room looks fresh with the white dining room table and graphic print on the chairs.
