Gaining Inspiration

Here is a bright and refreshing interior that feels breathable. I love that many different designs can be developed from a blank canvas - in this case white walls and wooden flooring. Theres a mix of design eras here too. The white wall shelves look modern, whereas the wall table looks vintage - slightly art deco? The kitchen is made to look warm and welcoming with comfy chairs round a big dining table with flowers on top, and the bedroom seems relaxing with a darker red throw and mood lighting.

I got the picture from Design You Trust with many more to look through! I will definitely be going back here again!

LLUSTRE.COM | A home you love to live in → llustre.com

This is a fantastic site I stumbled upon whilst flicking through Facebook. Similar to an online auction, it sells pieces from all different designers with a discount, I would buy nearly everything of here if I could! As well as having some beautiful items for sale, you can get up to a £500 cash reward for inviting your friends and each one of them gets a £5 gift for signing up. I will definitely try this - there are a few things I have my eye on…..

Will & Grace Creator Max Mutchnick’s Hollywood Home on ELLEDECOR.com → elledecor.com

                              

Here is an article from Elle Decor about the beautiful home of Erik Hyman and Max Mutchnick and their beautiful twin girls Rose and Evan. The house was once owned by Pete Sampras but has been renovated to a hidden gem in Beverly Hills. There are many pieces that have been sourced from around the world, but the garden in particular is my favourite: it’s as though The Secret garden come to life for those little girls.

#Elle Decor #The Secret Garden

Hello!

I’m Rosie and very new to this blogging thing! I’ve just started a new Interior Design course with the Interior Design Institute, and so I wanted to start a blog to share my interest in that, as well as any other beautiful and inspiring bits that I find. Enjoy!
