I spent an hour or so the other night looking at Spanish designer Luis Bustamante's website, and I was treated to that photo above. Is that a bar or what?! I thought that my bar was well-stocked, but it's nothing compared to this one.
Once my eyes adjusted to that gracious plenty of liquor bottles, I started to pay attention to the other details in the photo like those red ikat lampshades and the red and white striped wall to the left. A shot of crisp red certainly has a way of catching one's eye. And while looking through the rest of Bustamante's portfolio, my eye kept getting caught again and again, thanks to the designer's emphatic use of this color in so many of his projects (see below). It seems that red must be one of Bustamante's favorite colors, don't you think?
I suppose that I could say more, but after a thirteen-hour work day, I can barely string two sentences together. Fortunately, I think the photos speak for themselves.
The photos do speak for themselves, and quite nicely. I do enjoy a pair of floating columns in a large room. Never heard of this designer, thank you for the introduction dahhling.
ReplyDeleteThe photos are just fabulous + Bustamante's favorite color does seems to be red (he is sooo good) xxpeggybraswelldesign.com
ReplyDeleteSimply put – I want it all, including the bar table.
ReplyDeleteI have Spain in my blood and all of that red sets my heart a thumping. Gorgeous rich layered design.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mary
One rarely hears the term "gracious plenty" anymore- I use it on occasion and it just seems so apt in this case- love the post and I too want my house to look like this!- and by ther way- posted at 6:15 AM ?- my dog wasn't even awake at 6:15- To me 6:15 is the wind down of the cocktail hour-
ReplyDeleteThat bar is so stunning! I love red as an accent color, it is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the introduction to Luis Bustamante. I spent a fruitful evening drinking in (appropriately enough given his exceptionally well-stocked bars), his beautifully created interior designs.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for these photos and introduction to this designer. Just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe fourth photo from the top is my favorite. Those red couches are so incredibly bold looking against the mostly glass surroundings.

The first photo is wonderful - what an amazing collection of bottles in all shapes, sizes and colours. I have been known to buy a drink simply because I liked the bottle!!
