deco lust






Hows about a little bit of interior décor porn to start off the new year?

Love the light, the floors, the monochromatic scheme and quirky features in these rooms although I'm slightly woeful about the fact that I barely scratched the surface of the endless list of jobs I have to improve my own little abode over the holidays. Never mind, I'll just pretend this is my flat instead.

    THE FLOORS!

    One day I will have a flat in Paris with herringbone floors (which p.s. I have discovered add at least €200 per month to the rent)

    I lust after light, spacious rooms like that too! Ah, well, will have to continue to pretend...I never get my place moved on either. There's a mirror like that in the new LivingEtc; £1,500(!!!) for an antique mirror that they basically plastered in glorified letraset. It was a Bowie song lyric though...

    @claire I've always been tempted to look into how much it would cost to get similar flooring in my flat - suspect I would need to win the lottery first and in which case I may as well but a parisian apartment..

    @wishful nals Suspect having similar cushions are the closest I'll get to having a space like that!


    @trashsparkle good idea for a diy project maybe? You could use your fave lyrics.

grey velvety sofas

More of my grey obsession, this time at home... I have a very large, comfortable and remarkably hardy sofa which was bought from a Habitat sale about ten years ago. Frustratingly it still has a fair bit of life left in it, but I'm sort of at the point of wishing it would hurry up and die. As much as I love it to this day, I could do with replacing it with something a bit smaller as it takes up a lot of space in my living room. However I have a principle at home of not replacing things until they are basically un-serviceable, and that means for now - it stays. In the mean time I was thinking of having some new covers made for it, as both sets of cream cotton and pale green velvet covers have seen better days now, and you guessed it - grey is the colour I'm opting for. Just slightly torn between the idea of sumptuous glowing dove grey or a more masculine deep charcoal. At the end of the day it'll have to stand up to the usual household wear and tear for at ...

a break

I've been away in a pretty little seaside town for what I hoped would be a relaxing weekend with friends but for various reasons turned out to be less so. Unfortunately you can't always enforce serenity just because you're on holiday, but I do find watching the sea is always quite a meditative experience so here's a quick snap I took as a sliver of blue sky snuck through the gloomy clouds which were lurking about for most of the weekend.
