Luxury home tour -- part one! (And one of my favorites!)

Hello there! It's that time again -- time to share some beautiful houses at our local Home-A-Rama in Indy. I finally got to the show yesterday (it's going through this weekend) and the homes did not disappoint! 

As always, I'm sharing some of my favorite spaces in the homes with you. There were five houses in the tour and I'm sharing the first two today. One of my favorites was in this group, and another favorite I'll share next week. 

I noticed a few trends overall in the decor and design worth noting (for my fellow decor nuts): 

• Black windows were definitely the trend and I loved it. I always love the look! All but one home had black trimmed windows. 
• The color gray is not going anywhere in design! It was everywhere and I really loved it. Doors, walls, cabinets -- you name it! LOTS of gray bedrooms. I know many are tired of the gray trend, but I still really love the warm, cozy vibe of gray walls in a room. 
• Wallpaper was everywhere and I LOVE that too! I've used wallpaper a few times in our home -- it is back in a BIG way! It was used often as an accent wall behind beds, in bathrooms, mud rooms...all over!
• Most of the kitchens did not have white cabinets. Out of the five kitchens only one had white and it was my least favorite. Most were wood or deeper colors, especially in basement kitchenettes, bars and bathrooms. LOTS of gray and dark blue with brass hardware -- love!

Let's take a tour, shall we? The first home was one of my top two favorites!: 

Built by: Wedgewood Building Company 

What I loved about this home:

• The gray/wood cabinets throughout as well as the darker cabinets in the basement 
• The pretty, large scale peony wallpaper in a bathroom
• The master bathroom with it's lovely tile wall and beautiful symmetry 
• The pretty wood kitchen cabinets and the cut out area for the stovetop -- just gorgeous! 
• The glass wine closet in the kitchen...hello. Yes. 
• Brick tile in the mud room 

It's hard to tell it here, but that metal sheeting in the cabinets looks like bamboo -- it was SO SO pretty and I'm obsessed with it. 

Beautiful right? The staircase was awesome too -- you can see a bit of it in the photo above. (Similar design as my fireplace reveal this week -- thanks for your kind comments!) 

The second home on the tour had a pretty Cape Cod feel on the exterior: 

Built by: Viewegh and Associates

This one had some funkier touches here and there and I wasn't a big fan of the kitchen, but there were many spaces that I really loved! 

My favorites in this home: 

• The pitched wood ceiling in a bedroom with birch wallpaper (again, love the symmetry)'
• The gorgeous master bathroom with wood beams 
• Gray grasscloth wallpaper in the master -- the whole room had a very romantic feel 
• The dark blue/gray cabinets in the basement kitchen. So similar to the Cyberspace color I've used in our home. (Do I dare keep in going in our basement?) ;) 

What do you think? What was your favorite space in these two homes? I can't wait to show you my other favorite!

If you are local to Indy the show runs through this Sunday. You'll find tons of inspiration!
