Your Home Design Should Be as Layered as Your Outfit

The thoughtful creativity of Melissa Rees and her company M Hill Rees Interiors always involves layered textures, an unexpected color palette, mixed metals, and rooms as fresh and peaceful as an October sunrise. Melissa’s fantasy kitchen features a gently irregular tile backsplash, a practical vinyl wallpaper that reinforces the organic feeling, and a range of metallic finishes in lighting and hardware that act like the jewelry that completes the perfect outfit. All of the above, of course, work around a carefully planned layout and tons of storage because “just being gorgeous is never enough.”
