By tiling one wall in yellow tiles, set in an unusual design, this kitchen has been transformed to give a fun retro look.

Check out this home I found on domino.  It makes some grand statements with a large chandelier and animal print rug – but still manages to keep a balance of sophisticated elegance.

I cam across this idea on ‘this old house’.  I liked it just because it was simple and effective – perfect solution for small spaces.

At the back of my closet is a load of boxes.  I’d love to have this mini en-suite shower room instead!

Bath in the woods

October 27, 2008

Wallpaper is so much more than damask or floral prints nowadays.  This woodland scene makes a stunning backdrop and would definitely give me the feeling of bathing in the woods!

I love these shelves, the spindle supports really give it a different edge and painting the shelves the same colour as the walls really co-ordinates the scheme.

What a wall

October 24, 2008

Talk about making a statement with a feature wall! The wall mounted marble makes a real impact, while piles of logs either side of the fire stop it looking too stark.

Stripes don’t have to be light and bright.  These dark stripes make a real impact in this dark and moody room.

Cool curves

I love the entrance into this home office space.  The curved arched sets the scene for a modern scheme, the green desk looks great against a white backdrop.

I love this home office.  Plenty of windows make it a light and airy space to work in, while the well-chosen furniture and accessories give it a homely touch.
