Bright or Light?

a neutral shell with sage green and touches of red .....

I'm wondering if the display on the wall looks better against the neutral wall or

on the vibrant pinky red wall below .....

vibrant walls with neutral furniture .....

I think the both schemes are great and the displays look great either way -

Note however that on the neutral wall the art used is vibrant and on the vibrant wall the art (display) is black and white .....

Glorious Bedrooms

I adore bedrooms ... possibly because its the one place where you can make the space yours - truly yours - you can go over the top, or as simple as you wish .....

These images are also great examples of what makes a neutral scheme work - the use of texture and contrast ...

Modern Elegance

a selection of images from a gorgeous home in Australia - a blend of modern style with touches of retro (the armchair below, the glass top table, teh anglepoise lamp), classical, such as the chandelier, and brought to LIFE with vibrant splashes of red ....

this is definitely one of my favorite homes when it comes to a mix of styles with a funky edge.

Flag Statement

this seems to be the latest trend in quirky interiors - using the

Union Jack for tablecloths,  upholstery, scatters cushions etc. -

introducing  a shot of vibrant primary colour as well as

strong geometric lines

I love that it brings fun and humor and I suppose a talking point into a room.  

What about you - do you like this new trend?
