This summer while I obsessively collected photographs, I started noticing more than a few swings popping up indoors. As a child I had a fantasy of living in a home with exposed beams across a high ceiling that would allow my parents to rig up a swing. Unsurprisingly, it never happened, nor will it happen for my kids. (Not that they’ve expressed an interest.) While I had imagined a simple wooden slab and rope, the swings in these rooms are either oval wicker designs or funky Lucite orbs that pay homage to ’70s style. Fun!

There is something about a swing that just brings out your inner child, I love them!
My parents have exposed beams in their house – I should suggest this! 🙂
I think it was the final or second to final issue of Domino that feature Padma Lakshmi’s living room swing in her Manhattan apartment. You should check it out!
I absolutely adore the swing idea!! Great spread 🙂 Love all the photos in your posts!
