Neon and White

Pure white is always a good idea but I also like to see a punch of colour and boy is this a punch of colour! Neon brights against pure white from floor to ceiling! This gives such a young and very fun effect to this space don't you think? I like that some of the surfaces are shiny (even the floor seems to have a bit of shine) and give such a nice texture. The mix of florals in the space is also so cool...

 I think any neon against white could be so good in a kids bedroom or in a loft apartment.

Enjoy!

Interiors: Blue and White

This cottage in Sweden has done white so well with a touch of blue running through every room in the house. I also have some blue in my living room and though it is just in a few small pieces it adds a light touch of colour that I like. I have with a painting with blue in it, a vase with a blue pattern and two bowls but you could use it in cushions, a carpet or a small blue wall. What colour do you use to add to your white rooms?

Enjoy!

Beautiful Modern

Love the windows in this modern neutral apartment. When I see a home with a mix of greys, beige and cream I want this palette all over again! Feel relaxing and easy...

Enjoy!

Soft Industrial

A few photos of this gorgeous space that I call soft industrial. It has great industrial elements but it is softened with chandeliers, flowers and smooth lines. The dining room table is simply perfect because it is not too wide and the wood is full of texture. A really lovely space!

Enjoy!

Cabin Decor

I always dreamed of having a log cabin somewhere in the mountains of Quebec but that was not to be. My love of cabin decor however has lived on and this space really has the best of this design. Gorgeous and rustic with all of the modern touches necessary to make it comfortable. A big kitchen with a wonderful  adjacent family room. A gorgeous bathroom and a view outside that is sure to relax the mind and cure the soul!

Enjoy!

Interiors: Restaurant Höst

Check out these pictures of the restaurant Höst by the architects Norm out of Denmark. I love how they used reclaimed wood and woolen blankets to create a warm and inviting environment. Who would want to leave this place? What the designers did was mix the feeling of eating outside on a Scandinavian farmyard with an urban, more minimalist decor. They also produced a line of tableware for the restaurant as well as design custom tables and seating. 

The cuisine uses traditional ingredients of Nordic cooking made modern and new. Very much like the design of this wonderful space.

Enjoy!

In the Details..

This is the home of Annabelle Kerslake who is the editor of the on-line magazine Fete. A wonderful open plan space offsetting dark furniture with white and cream. I love the Victorian letter holder that has a card from a photo shoot for the magazine as well as the silver stag head. A bird decal on the wall above vintage books is another of the cool fun elements in this home. The bedroom of Annabelle's daughter is especially cute with the white and pink striped tent over the bed and the ruffled bed cover makes this space perfect for any little girl.

So many beautiful details in this home and I think that is what makes any home so different and special...

Enjoy!

Contemporary Chic

This home, all done up in neutrals, is so chic and contemporary yet still very comfortable. Gorgeous textures and the mix of old and new pieces keep it interesting. Love the bathroom fixtures and the use of mirrors in the dining room. Pale walls blend with the floor and furniture to create a soft and warm space. Really lovely..

Enjoy!

Interiors: Swedish Collections

This lovely apartment in Sweden is full of collections, antiques, vintage finds and lots of humour! I really love the stork that you can see in the living room. Take a look at the collection of teapots above the armoires and in the glass case are the collections of sponge pottery and small animals...

Enjoy!

Inspiration in White: Stylish Stairways

I love the extra details you see in certain homes...you know all the forgotten areas that we don't bother to decorate but in certain homes the decor goes all the way... to the stairway! It is a really area of opportunity because it is usually near the entrance of the home, takes up a large amount of space and can look so cool without spending a lot of money! Just adding some paint or a cool runner can make such a difference in the look of the stairway and can complete add great impact. Take a look at a few that I found for you!

 A really cool runner in bright colours adds fun to the all white entry.

Painted blue and cream runner looks so good for a little French look.

A bright orange runner on white but with the added orange stripe up the wall. 

Another blue and white painted stair but with a wide stripe.

All white stairway is always good!

French numbers! Love it...

Pretty pale blue..

Numbers, numbers..

Enjoy!
