The Amsterdam

One of my most recent Patti Johnston Designs installations is now complete! I recently completed two model homes in the Amsterdam at Harborside, a beautiful retirement community. Featuring a fresh color palette, furniture that blends traditional elements and modern living, and bright, open spaces, the Amsterdam project demonstrates functionality in design and welcomes visitors with bright, inviting color palettes. 

This post is dedicated to a large, two-bedroom unit that combines some of my favorite current color combinations. 

Master Bedroom Window Treatments

The window treatments in the master bedroom are bold in their large scale, but pull together the colors used throughout the room: neutral walls and carpet with a bold green chair and pillows. Yellow lamps carry the color throughout the room, and the pattern is repeated on the lumbar pillow on the bed. 

Master Bedroom

The large open living space brings in more sunny yellow, but varies the color palette with the incorporation of aqua—a Patti Johnston favorite, and touches of warm tangerine orange. Antique lamps bring all the colors together for a traditional touch.  Plenty of seating will accommodate a large family gathering or an evening of relaxing on the ample sofa with a good book or television show! 

Living Room


The yellow and aqua is incorporated into a second bedroom, which could function as a guest room and an office. The showpieces of this room include the fantastic butterfly art and the yellow leather upholstered ottomans with nail head designs that feature their unique shape.
