“ Beachy” and “ spa” are words
W ashington, D.C., designer Liz Levin
hears time and again from clients wanting
to redo their rooms. So she married the
two into one relaxing palette. A pale blue,
her starting point, offers spa-inspired
lightness and crispness, yet still has the
w atery hue associated w ith the beach.
Driftwood, which can look gray, silver, or
brown, warm s the cool blue and white.
The airy palette is a tw ist on the heavier
brown-and-blue schemes popular recently.
“ This is the room equivalent of a breath of
fresh air,” Liz says.
