What do you think? I say YES!
I’ve always loved sketches of rooms – especially ones that pick up on details like textiles and lighting. So pretty room renderings always catch my eye.
Kelly from Design Ties brought my attention to designer, Michelle Morelan’s A Schematic Life when she won a personal room rendering. Michelle took this picture of Kelly’s living room…
…and came up with this:
Apparently it is more grey and less lavender when viewed in person – but I wouldn’t care! I think it’s gorgeous.
I immediately added Michelle’s site to my reader and have been charmed by her work. Here are a few of my favorites:
Not only is she a successful designer, she is also an accomplished artist (though her paintings are very different from the renderings – large canvases and far less representational). Between her own creations, her photography and her writing, she writes one of the most interesting design blogs out there.

So cool! I wish I had a single room in my house worth rendering! She'd be sketching laundry piles and toys scattered everywhere…
So pretty – I LOVE Kelly's living room – makes me want to steal her house. Except I'm not a thief, and she lives in Canada. Oh well. I'll check out this site now!
Love the history behind renderings, using them as art is wonderful.
I just love the third room. I want to curl up in there!
