Nothing says Happy Monday like Starburst Pulls!

The Starburst Pulls were originally designed as a custom piece for one of Pulp’s interior design clients. We loved them so much we decided to have them manufactured and after years of them being a best-seller on our site, we launched a matte collection in February 2018! We love seeing  our pulls used in an array of styles and thought we’d share the love by doing a giveaway.

Behind The Scenes of our Handsome Seattle High-Rise Design Install

Pulp Design Work

Behind-the-Scenes of an Interior Design Transformation

February felt like National Install Month at Pulp as furnishings found their new homes at a few of our current interior design projects. First off the list, our Handsome High-Rise project! We installed wallcovering at this project in January and were beaming to finally bring the complete design to life with the phase two install. Our client has officially moved in and is in love with his home!

CONTROLLED CHAOS STARTS THE DAY

THE 411

WHO IS THE CLIENT?

Our client recently purchased this high-rise condo in Downtown Seattle and was ready to invest in a space that he would be proud to enjoy each day and share with friends and loved ones. During our initial consultation, we learned that he wanted his home to feel hotel-like, so to the drawing boards we went to create a livable, escape-like home!

WHAT IS THE SCOPE OF WORK?

We selected wallcovering for the entry, ceiling, living room and master and designed furnishings for the entire apartment. Because of the size of the space, we designed each room to be equally beautiful and luxurious as our client would be spending a lot of time throughout his home.

CUSTOMIZE YOUR TEXTILES

We had these pillows customized for our client and they turned out AMAZING! We love going custom whenever we can because it allows us to give our client something that no one else has and that’s perfectly made to their style. Plus, the first time we saw this Stroheim trim and S. Harris fabric we knew we had to use them in a project.

GO BOLD WITH WALLCOVERING

We love bringing our clients into the world of uniquely bold design with an eye-catching wallcovering — the days of dated florals plastered on your grandma’s walls are long gone. Wallcovering is a great way to express personality and personal style. See 5 of our favorite masculine wallcoverings…

10 Interior Design Trends We Can’t Get Enough Of

The Pulp Edit, ,

The Top 10 Design Trends in March 2018

February was full of project kickoffs, installs and design travel so we couldn’t be more excited to be heading into March going full throttle. Our eyes are always on the lookout for the latest and greatest in the design world for our interior design clients and we’ve spotted a few things that we just can’t get enough of…

2018.03 Blurbs.001

Starting off the March 2018 Pulp Edit strong is our friend Kati Curtis‘ opulent and utterly divine DXV Design Panel design. We love a globally inspired interior, especially when it’s reminiscent of a luxurious North African Hammam.

2018.03 Blurbs.002

We take every home need as an opportunity to add a splash of luxury to our interior design clients’ spaces, which is exactly why we have been loving the marble tech accessories from Native Union. Keeping you charged, and looking good while doing it!

2018.03 Blurbs.003

We love when artists take ordinary spaces and turn them into works of art. This vibrant and modern mural by Jessie and Katey makes an otherwise unextraordinary building a piece of art that can be enjoyed by any passerby.

2018.03 Blurbs.004

Designing with a flair for unexpected is a Pulp signature, so when we saw this unapologetically colorful space photographed by Francois Dischinger for Architectural Digest, we couldn’t help but fall in love. There really is no better time than now to be fearless with your interiors…

2018.03 Blurbs.005

Eye-catching accessories will always make the Pulp favorites list, especially when they are as creative and cool as these trays from the genius St. Frank x Sally King Benedict collaboration.

2018.03 Blurbs.006

Did anyone else totally swoon over Jennifer Aniston’s breathtaking home photographed by Francois Dischinger, or was that just us? We love how collected and warm her spaces feel.

2018.03 Blurbs.007

Matte black and brass has been a leading trend in the design industry for a minute, but our eyes are all on brass and malachite. This combination of rich tones makes this bowl feel like a hidden interior design treasure we’re sure glad we found.

2018.03 Blurbs.008

Art and accessories are so much more than the average finds. We have been all about using unexpected finds, like this tortoise shell featured in Elle Decor, as means to bring personality to life in our designs.

2018.03 Blurbs.009

Okay, how could you not add a pool this amazing to your list of favorite trends? We love seeing people go all out with their amenities and would love to take a dip in the pool ourselves… This captivating space was photographed by Filippo Bamberghi for Interior Design Homes.

2018.03 Blurbs.010

We love conceptualized photographic series, especially when they are as interesting and unique as Matthew Rolston’s collection of commentary on modern portraiture. We’re always here for innovative creative works!

And with that, Happy March! What trends have you been loving recently?

The Complete Guide to Palm Springs Modernism Week

Travel, , , ,

Oh Palm Springs… we always come back from design trips to Palm Springs full of inspiration for our interior design clients. Maybe it’s the sun or the endless amounts of agave, whatever the reason we are back in our studios channeling a weekend full of nonstop design adventures for our clients.

Palm Springs is one of our favorite destinations for both personal travel and design trips. After a great weekend exploring with DXV, we pulled together the Pulp guide to Palm Springs during Modernism Week. You’ll want to mark your calendars for next year…

5 Design Sources Inspired By Modern Style

Pulp Design Work, , , ,

In the midst of site visits and installs galore, we’ve been getting our hands dirty with fresh projects and new schemes for our interior design clients. Following the launch of our matte finish hardware, we’ve been all about black and brass which we used as inspiration when it came to pulling design sources for this scheme for a new project. We are designing a modern and trendsetting space, full of dynamic neutrals and adventurous accessories.

The 5 Design Sources That Inspired a Recent Design Project

Scheme Sources.001

This textile by Dedar works nearly every design trend we’ve been loving into one stunning fabric. Tessere Metallico defines dynamic and brings tons of interest to the scheme all on its own.

Scheme Sources.002

No Pulp scheme would be complete without unexpected and unique accessories that bring  a sense of adventure to the design. This brass turtle shell paperweight is the epitome of the perfect finishing touch.

Scheme Sources.003

Every stylish space deserves a Hermés textile. The H’Bloc design is graphic, captivating and   an overall modern beauty.

Scheme Sources.004

Geometric matte black tile… need we say more? We selected the Contour tile from Cepac Tile as a finish that was cohesive with the rest of the scheme.

Scheme Sources.005

We love a geometric patterned neutral. Hearts skipping a beat over the Entrelacs textile by Hermés!

3 Ways to Style a Stunning Coffee Table Beyond the Books

Entertaining + Home Living, Shopping Guide, , , ,

There are countless ways to style a coffee table, but if there’s one common thread it’s that it’s all in the details. When it comes to finishing an interior design client’s coffee table with the Pulp Final 15, we always personalize, add plenty of unique details and keep it functional. Good design showcases a client’s personality and elevates everyday living — there’s no detail that doesn’t serve a purpose, whether it be for aesthetic or organization. But it’s not all about the coffee table books… see three ways to style your coffee table beyond the books.

How To Style a Coffee Table

How To Style a Coffee Table

  1. Start with a tray. If we start styling a coffee table anywhere, it’s with the tray. Even the simplest of accessories will feel elevated when layered on top of a tray. Styling magic!
  2. Add dimension and flair. Create dimension by adding sculptures and accessories of varying height and material. Accessories should work to draw the eye and express personality, so we like to use coffee table books and objects that bring our design clients’ passions to life.
  3. Keep it functional. You’ll be living here, after all! Layer in smaller catchalls and bowls to the space to add extra options for stylish storage.
