Chairs

Hi, hope you all had a great weekend. It's been a good start to the week today. Well I did feel like I had achieved a lot, then remembered my blog!! So I'm sitting here now with my pug on my lap - making it hard to type as his head is on my arm and he is snoring!!

Tonight's post is on chairs - chairs are such an important design tool. A fabulous chair can just really make a room and make you go WOW!!. Here's a few gorgeous ones to share with you.

Stripes

Hi, I'm a big stripe fan. I love the graphic, bold quality a stripe can bring to a design. Likewise they can also be subtle and soft. Here's some great examples of the humble stripe being used to fabulous effect. Hope you like them.

Purple

Hello, after a lovely sunny day in Sydney I thought I would do a post on purple. I'm designing a Lavender inspired master bedroom for a current client - so have purple on my mind. Purple is the colour for Royalty, it stands for luxury, wealth and sophistication. Purple is also the third favourite colour in terms of colour preference after blue and green (I didn't know that).

Deep purple is associated with royalty wealth or richness, whereas light purple is associated with whimsical, romantic and nostalgic feelings. Have a look at these gorgeous rooms to see how they have used purple to evoke a feeling. There is definately a light and airy feel with the lavender's and lilacs and a bit more of a kick with the darker purples.

Favourite Room for Today

Hi all, this room caught my eye today.  I love the shiny floor, the colours - the blue on the outside wall leading into the Latte/Coffee colour in the office. That Chaise lounge looks very inviting too. A great office space with lots of interest. I think maybe it's an ad for Ikea as I recognise most of the pieces. Unfortunately though I cannot remember where I picked this image up from. Just goes to show though how stylish and Ikea room can be (well in my opinion anyway)

sorry Designer Details unkown - if you know who this room belongs to please let me know so I can amend the details - thanks, Jodie
