Isn't this house just so lovely? The interior was designed by Anna at Black + Spiro (images from her blog).
We've been fortunate enough to have received some beautiful antique furniture in the last few weeks from my husband's side of the family, so it's got me thinking about the house again, and how I'd love it to look. This house in the pictures above is pretty close to what I'd love. I have a bit of a thing for white, I have to admit, and always seem to go for painting walls in white or neutral tones, but I also love splashes of colour and a bit of quirkiness. Colour is so easy to change and when you get bored (as I often do!) you can mix things up again or remove the bits you don't like anymore!
We now have an antique dining table and chairs that need reupholstering. So I'm actually thinking at some point of doing a DIY job on the chairs and choosing a colourful fabric, better than the red velvet that is currently on them. I think I'm going to refer to these pics down the track for a little inspiration.
It's adorable! Love the colours :O)
ReplyDeleteLove it! I have images in my head about how I want the house to look, but I never get there. Goal for 2011 :)
ReplyDeleteI love the top room. I paint my main rooms neutral, but our bedrooms are all different colors. We have one long wall in a dark red wine color, but everything else is plain. I'm tempted to go white so I can have these wonderful pops of color for our dining/living. Thanks for posting.
