Alice Lane Pick: Studded Stacking Bowl

If you've looked through our portfolio or regularly browse our Instagram feed then you've probably noticed that we have some definite "go-to" accessories that we use in just about every project. These Studded Stacking Bowls are one of them! Their beaded gold leaf edge dresses them up, while their imperfect shape keeps them casual. A trait that makes them work in just about every space! Ivory Lane Kitchen + Designed by Alice Lane Home-9

We recently used them in Emily Jackson's kitchen paired with our Eternity Salad Servers...a killer combination! We even use them outside of the kitchen too...styled on a console table or in a bookshelf. The possibilities are endless!

Show N' Tell - Summer Hideaway

Summer is in full force and things are heating up around here! While Utah is full of grand adventures to be had in the great outdoors, sometimes you just need to escape the heat and lay back in a nice, cool, dark basement to binge watch the latest season of New Girl. We're about to show you the perfect spot to do so....our Summer Hideaway project. Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-17This was a fun little project we got to work on for a client who needed our help in transforming her unfinished basement into the perfect hang-out spot for her kids. It also needed to serve the dual purpose of a "pool house" -- a place where the kiddos could dump their swim gear after endless hours of fun in the pool out back and clean up. Can you even think of a better place to spend your summer days? Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-15

We designed the space to be kid-friendly and relaxed, but also mature and sophisticated. The custom designed built-in fireplace helps to not only give the room a focal point, but also sets the stage for modern sophisticated living. We love the combo of the deep veined marble and the grain matched cabinetry.

Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-20

The kitchenette is the perfect place to stop for a quick snack, or to lay out a full spread during those pool parties. The horizontal planked island has got to be one of our favorite elements of this design. Topped off with our favorite Hicks pendants...this is one stylish little kitchenette.

Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-21Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-18Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-26Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-13

The basement is pretty spacious for it's size and we were able to section off the open living room to accommodate their different needs. Here we created the ultimate kids corner, perfect for gaming, lounging, and all kinds of play. We mirrored the planked cabinetry on the opposite end of the room with this modern ship lap wall.

Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-14

And here's the "pool house." It sits right off the back entrance of the house and is the perfect spot to filter all the traffic coming in and out from pool. We used a faux hardwood tile to keep messes at bay. The same tile flows straight through to the kitchenette, making clean ups a breeze.

Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-2 Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-1 Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-4

Let's all take a second to swoon over these wall sconces, shall we? We kept the design of this bathroom classic, with black and white tile wainscoting and octagon floor tiles. It's a simple pallet, but timeless and dreamy. We decided to use extra large subway tiles on the bottom that transition to a narrower subway higher up. A great trick for basements with shorter ceilings to keep the eye moving up!

Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-5 Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-6 Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-7Hilltop Haven + Designed by Alice Lane Home-25

The bedroom in the basement serves as the perfect guest suite. Just look at how much sunlight pours into this room! You'd never know you were in a basement. We kept the furniture in here comfortable and functional, including a bench at the end of the bed with a small accent table for guests to sit and work if needed. We opted to use open nightstands, which really helps to keep the room open and airy (plus there's really no need to have to hide your junk in a guest room!).

Wonderland Pick: Antique Silver Vase

These babies are our latest obsession. Every once in a while one of those champion accessories comes into the store that work with everything. These antique silver vases are those. Whether paired in a set or with other accessories they compliment every surface. The visual weight of these ceramic vases is on point, but our favorite part is the tapered opening. It finishes off every accessory grouping. We have used these ceramic vases on consoles, coffee tables, side tables, and even mantels! Come check 'em out! Available at our Orem showroom only!

Hello...We're Alice Lane Home!

Hello friends! It's been awhile since we've done any formal introduction around here, and with so many new customers and followers we thought it was time we tell you all a little bit about who we are. So...we're excited to share our first-ever video project with you! Several months ago we were introduced to Haugen Creative and we were instantly blown away by their high-quality video productions they've worked on both locally and across the globe. We were in the midst of getting our new website ready to launch, and knew we wanted to re-introduce ourselves to the world in a fun new way. Haugen Creative helped us create this short little "About Us" video to do just that.

One thing we wanted to get across in this video is that we reeeeeally love what we do. Whether it be providing you with high-quality furnishings for your home or helping you design your dream home, we want to be a part of it! Haugen Creative help us share our story and our excitement for what we do with you. We hope to share more videos with you in the future, from sharing tips on design to giving you an inside look into some of the spaces we create, so hopefully there is much more to come! A big thanks to Haugen Creative for helping us on this fun new project!

Alice Lane on Hanover Avenue

If you're ever in need of a good boost of self-confidence, Anne Tollett from Hanover Avenue is just the person to call! She reached out to us months and months ago wanting to interview our main gal, Jessica Bennett, for part of her video blog series that spotlights some amazing designers. Of course we were flattered and instantly taken with Anne's energetic personality that we just had to say yes. Ivory Lane Kitchen + Designed by Alice Lane Home-20

With the launch of our new website and the reveal of Emily Jackson's kitchen, Anne wanted the full scoop on how with good design, styling, furnishings, and decor we transformed this large white kitchen and dining space into something truly amazing.

Be sure to head over to Hanover Avenue for the full interview with Jess! You'll love some of the tips & tricks she has to share so you can get this look for yourself. We're even offering a special discount to Hanover Avenue readers, so don't miss it!

 

Show N' Tell - Emily Jackson's Kitchen

It's here! Our new website is finally live! We couldn't think of a better way to welcome you all to our new site than by sharing this beautiful kitchen we helped furnish and style for the power-house woman behind The Ivory Lane fashion blog, Emily Jackson. In yesterday's post we shared our design inspiration behind this project and how we planned to transform Emily's newly built kitchen into her dream come true (check that out here if you missed it). The exciting thing about this kitchen reveal is how you can actually shop everything from this space right here on our website. Pretty neat, huh?! So be sure to check out the shopping section when you're done oohing an ahhing over these pics.

Now...let's get to it, shall we? As mentioned in yesterday's post, Emily's kitchen was beautiful to begin with, but she asked us to add a little more personality and put all those "finishing touches" in place. While all of the accessories did a lot to pull the space together, it's actually the finer details we added that (we feel) made the biggest impact.

Remember those over-the-knee burgundy suede boots of Emily's we mentioned yesterday? Well they just so happened to inspire a lot of what you'll see in this space. These custom made roman shades and draperies add just the right amount of color to her kitchen. The way the fabric ombre's from that deep burgundy down into a soft white gives it that bold-yet-subtle look we were going for.

Ivory Lane Kitchen + Designed by Alice Lane Home-2

Ivory Lane Kitchen + Designed by Alice Lane Home-9She had a lot of open-shelving throughout the kitchen, so we made sure that every shelf served a specific purpose. After all, your kitchen should be just as functional as it is beautiful. We turned this little nook next her kitchen sink into a cookbook library, complete with a lighted cookbook stand (it's really an art easel...but isn't this a genius application!?). There's something about cookbooks that just makes a kitchen feel homey. Don't you think?

Ivory Lane Kitchen + Designed by Alice Lane Home-10

We took a few tips from Emily's own fashion sense and lined these glass-front cabinets with the most amazing Kelly Wearstler wallpaper. It's like that pocket square or hidden lining of a jacket that sneakishly hides in the background, but is full of color and life. And just look at how those white dishes now pop against the background! Major win.

This particular section of shelves is dedicated to all things baking. When Emily told us she and her daughter frequently bake together, we knew we needed to design a space that was full of all things petite, colorful, and bake-worthy. Her daughter has already named this her "baker acre"...adorable!

In the dining room we started fresh. A new light fixture, new window panels to match the kitchen, new dining table, and the most stunning art to offset all the white. We're a little bit obsessed with those dining chairs, too! Because this is her only dining space in the home, it needed to function for every day dining, but also sophisticated enough to host a dinner party now and then. Mission accomplished.

Last, but certainly not least, is this beautiful Butler's Pantry. It too had great bones for us to work with. The navy cabinets inspired us to curate a collection of smokey and glamorous serving ware that certainly puts on quite a show. We love how this room is like the hidden jewel of the whole kitchen. It's the perfect spot to display those more "unique" pieces and really make them feel special. Swoon.

Emily Jackson's Kitchen Design

We've been working on a special project these past several months that we're excited to finally share with you! Our most frequently asked question (and winning by a long mile) is "Do you sell online?" For those of you who have heard or seen our responses to this question on social media lately, you could probably sense our anticipation as we wanted to blurt out, "YES! It's finally happening!" Well folks...it really is finally happening! Tomorrow you'll all be able to shop Alice Lane Home online and have items delivered right to your front door (coast to coast!). So now that we have you anxiously sitting on the edge of your seat for the launch of our new site, we thought we'd share a special sneak peek inside our first curated online collection that we've been working on with The Ivory Lane fashion blogger, Emily Jackson.

Alice Lane_Emily Jackson Ivory Lane Kitchen Design

You could call it fate that Emily Jackson reached out to us for help around the same time we started working on our online store. She had just wrapped up a massive new-build and asked us to put the final touches in her house to make it feel like home. With her cutting edge fashion sense and our love for designing forward-thinking spaces, it was the perfect combination! Alice Lane_Emily Jackson Ivory Lane Kitchen Design

Her newly built kitchen was beautiful to begin with. But the great thing about designing for someone who has a keen sense of style is that it really allowed us to push the envelope. We presented Emily with a design that would take her vanilla white kitchen to a whole new level! After all, this is a girl who wears burgundy suede boots over the knee...her kitchen should be just as bold and daring! We pulled in a little Kelly Wearstler and even browsed through Emily Jackson's abundant closet for inspiration.

Alice Lane_Emily Jackson Ivory Lane Kitchen Design Keeping in mind that Emily is more than just a fashion blogger, we made sure our design was also kid-friendly and comfortable to live in. A corner of the kitchen was designated for her mother/daughter bake sessions and we selected dining room chairs that would easily transition from casual breakfasts to dinner parties with friends. That's what Emily really needed. Alice Lane_Emily Jackson Ivory Lane Kitchen Design

We can't wait to show you how it all came together in tomorrow's blog post, so stay tuned! We're even more excited that now you'll actually be able to shop every little thing from her home, and so much more! Eek! Alice Lane_Emily Jackson Ivory Lane Kitchen Design

Our Favorite Coffee Tables

The coffee table. It tends to hold more accessories than cups of coffee, but what we would ever do without them! People shopping our showroom frequently ask about coffee tables and how to select the right one for their space. What it really comes down to is simple math and a lot of style. Let's get the boring (but important) part out of the way shall we...the math. A good rule of thumb is to allow at least 19" between your coffee table and other furnishings to provide ample walking space. That will help you determine exactly how large of a coffee table you can use. Next, the top of your coffee table should be about the same height as the cushion of your sofa. If you're going for a more modern look, a lower coffee table can do just the trick, but you want to avoid having your coffee table higher than your seating. 20150625_AliceLaneHome_ModerneManor-9861_Edit

3 & Cover Rose

We thought we'd share some of our favorite (and best-selling) coffee tables that work great in different types of spaces...

1. Hampton Coffee Table - It's your traditional coffee table shape and size, but has so much style that your space will feel modern and sophisticated. Pairs great with your standard sized sofa and provides plenty of surface space with out being too heavy.

2. Campaign Cocktail Table - Its perfectly petite frame makes it the perfect coffee table for tight spaces. What your living room lacks in square footage can easily be made up for with big style. And this table has it!

3. Hobson Cocktail Table - This large, square, double-tiered coffee table is our favorite! It provides plenty of surface space and helps fill-in the empty hole you tend to get in the middle of large living rooms. Perhaps our favorite feature though is the plethora of decor it holds! A stylists dream...

4. Morello Oval Cocktail Table - Some spaces need a little extra wiggle room between furnishings. An oval or round shaped coffee table is the perfect solution. It allows you to easy navigate between things without making you feel boxed in. The curved lines and sleek metal frame of this beauty make it the perfect centerpiece.

5. Trimbelle Cocktail Table - Need something with a little more versatility? This white onyx coffee table can act as an ottoman, is perfect for entertaining, and even adds a little sparkle to your space. It entirely functional and incredibly stylish. Win!

Our Favorite Spring Foliage

Perhaps the thing we love most about spring are the recklessly blooming trees outside! The way they renew life and evoke happiness is a trait we find rather endearing. In fact, so much so that we're entirely guilty of sneakily clipping branches from nearby trees and taking them home with us to display! Fresh blooms and branches are the perfect way to breath new life into your home and freshen up your space for spring. And although fresh foliage will always be our favorite, we've managed to find some pretty awesome faux spring foliage that can fool just about everyone. IMG_7271

1. Fiddle Leaf Branches - We LOVE a good fiddle fig, and these beauties add all the modern greenery your heart can handle without the hassle of having to keep the them alive! No really, have you ever tried to keep a real fiddle fig alive? Not easy. At just $23 per branch, you'll save yourself from a black thumb fiasco.

IMG_6871

2. White Cherry Blossom Branches - By far our most popular branches that pair perfectly with just about any ginger jar. This is one spring time classic that we'll never grow tired of. Pick up your own bundle at just $13 per branch. Also available in pink!

IMG_7312 3. Orchid Branch - The loose and whimsical nature of the orchid adds that perfect layer of femininity to any room grouping. And although a full bundle of these branches is stunning, we love the pure simplicity and beauty of a single stem. Not bad for just $16.50 each.

Show N' Tell - Taste Chocolatier

If you read the latest issue of Utah Style & Design magazine and found yourself getting a weird craving for chocolate around page 36, we don't blame you! It was an absolute treat to see the chocolate shop we designed for Coleman & Davis Artisan Chocolate featured within the beautiful pages of the magazine. We thought we'd share more of that project here on the blog and give you the full tour of the most delicious little shop in downtown Provo, UT. It was just over two years ago that we literally jumped at the opportunity to partner up Coleman & Davis to help them create their first new-concept store and chocolate parlor - TASTE. Although it was the idea of gourmet chocolate that had us initially intrigued, it was this beige box that really had us salivating from the mouth! Oh how we love a project that starts as a blank canvas!

The once-was art gallery, although simple, had some incredible bones to work with. From the hand carved wood floors to the beams in the ceiling, this space had a lot going for it. Of course, it took a lot of creativity to pull it all together. Everything in the space was designed with one thing in mind...chocolate. Our clients wanted a space that made you feel like you'd been transported to a authentic chocolate shop off the streets of Paris. We pulled inspiration from the movie Chocolat, and even shopped antique stores to find some authentic pieces to incorporate into the design. Vintage chocolate molds and an antique mercantile scales were just a few of things that helped us pull the design together.

That handsome fellow is Phil Davis, the chocolate enthusiast behind Coleman & Davis Artisan Chocolates. Together with partners Morgan and Char Coleman, they run this little shop. If you've ever met the talented team, than you know that everything they do is really about quality. Luckily for us, they already owned a large collection of high-quality original artwork. We incorporated some of those pieces into the decor, which really gives the space some history, as if they were slowly collected over time and added to the walls decade after decade. And let's not forget the floors! It was almost mind-damaging to get the design and scale just right on the floors. Using a stencil, the original wood floors were hand painted to perfection. A true labor of love right there, but by far one of the most eye-catching elements of this design.

We designed these extra-large banquettes to seat large groups of people, perfect for their chocolate tastings which are truly a unique experience. The curved arms and tufted backs gives them a timeless and classic look. We hung a collage of porcelain china above each banquette, some of which were heirlooms of the owners and others we found at local antique shops. Set against the pale blue walls, it's perhaps one of our favorite little details in the design.

Show N' Tell - Domo Headquarters

Here at Alice Lane we traditionally work on residential design projects. And while we've really tried to establish ourselves as leaders in that field, we can't tell you how good it feels to also stretch our wings into the world of commercial design. Awhile ago we had the opportunity to design the headquarters for DOMO, a vastly growing business solutions company based in American Fork, Utah. The thing we love about commercial design is it forces you to think outside the box and allows you to explore some rather unconventional design. wc_AliceLaneHome_Domo_20150829_0928_Edit

wc_AliceLaneHome_Domo_20150829_0945_Edit

Our design objective with this project was to keep a bit of that "start up business" feel while incorporating sophisticated design that the company could grow into (which they certainly have). Even with its big boy pants on, you still get that fun and youthful vibe that's a direct reflection of who they are.

wc_AliceLaneHome_Domo_20150829_1082_Edit

wc_AliceLaneHome_Domo_20150829_1098_Edit

The furnishings were kept clean, simple, and modern. This allowed for some of the other design elements to really stand out, like the blue gallery wall that boasts the logos of some of their more prestigious clients.

wc_AliceLaneHome_Domo_20150829_1091_Edit

And how rad is this tech wall? It's not every day that we're challenged with the task of fitting 30 screens onto a wall. In fact, most the time we're trying to hide and conceal our client's TV screens. Needless to say, this was liberating!

wc_AliceLaneHome_Domo_20150829_1313_Edit

You'll find that in just about every space there is something that reflects the quirkiness of DOMO. Whether that be a giant mural of Smokey and the Bandit, or a gallery wall full of their notorious billboards, every square inch of this office space was designed to embody the fun and upbeat culture they've created.

The executive offices were comfortably furnished to make them feel a little more at home. After all, the majority of one's day is spent in the office. We used soft upholstery pieces and natural wood tones to really warm up the spaces. Can't you just imagine Don Draper from Mad Men making himself right at home in here?

Alice Lane Pick: Tree Ring Art

LindsaySalazar.com-4I'm currently a sucker for all things watercolor, including this series of Tree Ring artwork we currently have in our Salt Lake store. There's something about these pieces that makes them look nearly three dimensional. Like you could reach right into the painting and feel the depth of that cut wood! The great thing about this series is that you can mix and match them however you like. You can hang a pair (like we did up above), or use all four variations to make a complete gallery wall. Plus, they're perfectly neutral, so they work in almost any space! Tree Rings Art Series

XOXO, TOM

With winter making its final farewells and the tease of spring time temperatures in the air, it’s time to rethink our overworked rugs that sustained us through the muddy months. A new layer underfoot feels so welcome and fresh – especially one that’s incredibly comfy on our newly found bare feet. Marbury Steel Rug Rotated

Marbury Steel Rug $913

Our Wonderland location currently has this beauty in stock and it’s so soft we can’t help but run our fingers through it several times daily. This is the kind of rug that you’d invite the neighbors over to meet, and then cozy up on for the Downton Abbey finale after they finally left. On second thought, you may want to keep this one a secret, because once the neighbors find out, they’ll be running their toes through the exact one in their own living room. Some things in life are just too good to share.

XOXO, Holly A.

Q: What's your personal take on design?  A: I believe good design improves the function of our spaces, in the most beautiful way imaginable! Before I put my designs in action, I ensure that it’s custom fit and every little part is considered and loved. My work is always so personal. It's thoughtful, collected, and usually some form of transitional style. My team and I are mix masters. We put in all the right ingredients, and then send it through our transitional filter. It must perform well, as well as look good. When it does both, that is design at work! Most importantly, I feel like our designs best represent each of our clients.

Q: What are your proudest accomplishments?  A: This past summer our French Moderne Manor home was featured in the Utah Valley Parade of Homes. It was voted Best Home, and also swept the competition in other areas like Best Interior Design, Best Master Suite, and Best Kitchen. This past month, the home was featured on the cover of Utah Style & Design Magazine. Pinch me! It was a huge project, and literally everyone on our staff was needed to complete the project on an accelerated build schedule in order for it to be ready for the parade, be judged, and toured by tens of thousands of people. All of these recent accomplishments take me back to how proud I am of the design program we've built here at Alice Lane Home. Designers, Jr. Designers, Stylists, and Interns - they each play a role in our success. As our company has grown, each member of our team has been able to expand their wings and grow. My mama heart couldn't be more proud of them!

Q: How did you get started in Interior Design? A: I studied Advertising Design at Utah State University. Afterwards I worked as an Art Director and Creative Director for a few advertising firms. It was my love for design that got me a job designing the corporate head quarters for Omniture, a local Software Company. That soon led to designing the executives homes where my design work took off. I opened Alice Lane Home Collection, our home furnishings boutique and interior design firm, in 2008 to make transitional style furnishings more available in Utah. It also allowed me to gain more access and resources to the types of furnishings I was passionate about. Today our firm is working on over 100 design projects with 10 designers on staff, 60 employees over all, and 2 furniture showrooms in Orem and Salt lake City, Utah. Our online home furnishings store will go live this April!

Q: Do you have a favorite design book? A: Yes! ABCDC's is full of basic design tips that everyone should know. I highly recommend it.

Q: And because we really want to know...what's your favorite treat? A: The Kouign Amann pastry from Les Madeleines, a local French bakery here in Salt Lake City. It's to die for! With layers of flaky sweetness, it's a rich, buttery caramelized piece of heaven. If you're ever in the area, you need to try it!

See...she really is awesome! So now you can feel really good about your decision and go VOTE!
