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.

Living in a White Space

I've always adored a "clean", white or neutral space, where one can bring to the fore textures and pattern to create a really interesting and inspiring living space.   These examples are what I'm talking about.   The upholstery, the throw the dark wood african drum table, texture on the floors and walls ....

whiteashed wooden floors, interesting mats, rugs and other items to create a welcoming entrance ....

books and more interesting objects, dark wooden stools .... all working together to make a really lovely home.

In fact, I'm finding that the more I explore white or neutral spaces, the more my love of them evolves and the more I want to create spaces like that for me too!!
