My Favorite Spaces From Our Local Home-a-Rama Tours

Tour the Indy Home-a-Rama luxury homes with me!

Ohhh I love these home tour posts! So much decor and design inspiration! 
Touring model homes is one of my favorite pastimes, so when I can visit a bunch in one spot, I’m in heaven. 🙂 
I recently toured our local Indy Home-a-Rama homes and have some great pics to share with you. This year there was only one home that really stood out to me as far as my personal design taste, but all were absolutely beautiful! 
You can see a list of the builders and designers for each home here
I’m sharing the spaces that caught my attention most — they’re all mixed together so these are from all six of the homes in the tour. 
Curves and arches have been trending big time over the past year or so, and I’m here for it! I love the soft curved accents I saw throughout these homes, from big to small. 
This built in bench moment in a girl’s room was so sweet, and I loved the little curved detail on the cane doors:

Here’s the other side of this space — I like that the trim was painted to match the built ins:

There were a lot of curved doorways and bookcases as well:

I think the arches help to soften the simple and clean look of all white walls. 
You know I was drawn to this dark gray office/library!:

Now I’m wishing I had added that curved top to our basement built ins!:

I think there are two things every room needs — black accents for some depth and contrast, and circles. Round tables, lamps or mirrors help to soften the hard lines in our homes. 
This arched wall over a basement bar is exactly what I’ve had in mind for our basement kitchenette:

LOVE the vertical tile and shelves as well!
This basement tasting room was SO cool…the barreled ceiling makes this room with no windows feel less closed in:

The coved ceiling over this bathroom’s vanities added a subtle custom touch:

The curve on the mirrors is a nice compliment to that accent wall!
Now, onto some of the other spaces I loved…with no arches. 😄
This movie room was awesome, but the star ceiling is what really grabbed my attention!:

I was thinking about a DIY version and figured it couldn’t be THAT hard…using 4×8 sheets of plywood, a drill bit and Christmas lights. How fun!!
This room was my favorite of the whole tour…the black windows and that fireplace were gorgeous:

I loved the whole feel of this space, but man…it was warm in there!! It was a beautiful, cool fall day outside too. I can’t imagine how warm it would be in the summer. 
This dining area was simple but so lovely. The black windows and stained wood ceiling added plenty of interest:

And this dusty blue butler’s pantry was one of my favorites as well: 
dusty blue kitchen cabinets
Things I loved: the rolling ladder, large hardware pulls, metal sheeting on the cabinet doors and that backsplash tile! 😍
This breakfast nook was so cool — the cane pendant was so unique:

This little architectural nook reminds me of the character you’d find in a much older home!
This green color was so pretty! I loved it paired with the brass details and that beautiful marble sink:

I thought the colorful NYC wallpaper was an odd touch with the very traditional design, but everything under that was perfection!
And finally, I always love a custom detail in an open space between kitchen cabinets:

The antiqued mirror backsplash added some character to this brand new kitchen. 
I’ve been debating adding those brass hardware shelf details to the big shelves I built in our kitchen

I hope these beautiful spaces inspired you! It’s always fun for me to try to think of ways to recreate these expensive, custom touches on a much smaller budget. 🙂
