"We used designer favorite brands sourced by the Spotted Whale," said Anne Pecora, Owner of B Oliver Designs. "The ability to evolve is one of our design team's favorite aspects of this project - adding additional pops of color through a selection of Annie Selke area rugs, Taylor Linen pillows or Shard and In2Green accessories that complete the look. We love designs that are interchangeable like this."
