Let's Give The Photographer Some Credit!

Tria Giovan for Southern Accents

When flipping through a magazine , looking at beautiful interiors and architecture, I rarely think about the one thing that I'm actually looking at...the photograph! I think if a photograph is done well, we automatically put ourselves into the environment as if we were standing at that entry door or sitting in that living room.

Tria Giovan is a New York based photographer. Her work has been exhibited in the Museum Of Modern Art, The Brooklyn Museum of Art, The New York Public Library, and the Jewish Museum in NY. I've chosen a selection of interior photographs that she has taken. They are light and airy, with a summery feel. After all, the sun is finally shining in upstate New York!

Apartment Therapy did a feature on Tria's photographs that include people. Apparently, having people in her photographs is something that she does frequently, unlike many other interior photographers.

The rest of the photographs are from a Dutch Colonial Beach house in Florida, featured in Coastal Living magazine.

Pecky Cypress cabinets,  concrete sink, Calcuta gold marble countertops, and mosaic tile back splash.
Truly a "beachy" mix of textures and color!

That was a beautiful beach house. I like that it wasn't decorated all nautical or sea shell motifs like so many beach houses! By using colors inspired by the water, sand, and driftwood, designer Susan Ferrier was able to create the calm and relaxing feel that you want when your trying to get away from it all! She has worked with architect Bobby McAlpine creating more than forty seaside projects in the US and the Caribbean, which by the way, is where Tria Giovan grew up (St. Thomas).

Hope you enjoyed! Happy Monday :)
