Matthew Smyth creates these lush and luxurious spaces. They draw you in with their rich colours, textures and materials. Detail is paramount (check the drape detail) and classic is the vibe.

(I am posting this on behalf of Jo who is taking a little well-deserved vacation.)Eileen Boyd is a Long Island based interior designer but her clients range further afield. Her eclectic mix of modern and classic elements is refined and simple in it's crisp elegance but look closer and you will notice the firm's attention to detain. A second office has recently opened in New York. Eileen’s work has been featured in publications such as ELLE Décor, Traditional Home, Better Homes & Gardens and House Beautiful. Linger in the details below for inspiration.

In my searches for photos of beautiful rooms, I came across a website called Ifi from Norway. It doesn't really matter that I understood maybe 3 words on the site, all that matters is that they had some blog-worthy photos of interiors.

William Diamond and Anthony Baratta began their partnership 25 years ago. Their firm is hugely successful. They have over 25 magazine covers to their name, including House Beautiful, Architectural Digest, Elle Decor, House & Garden, Southern Accents, The World of Interiors, Traditional Home, and Veranda. "Best known for their great diversity of styles in a grand scale, Diamond Baratta's design projects include residential projects in French, English, and American styles -- and a newly inventive Modern style. All include the Diamond Baratta dynamic of enlarged scale and genius color interpretation". I love their style - it reminds me of a slightly subdued/less whimsical Jonathan Adler.

I eagerly await each new month at Domino. No not the magazine but the website. I can't find the magazine here in Australia so the monthly online update is my eagerly awaited fix. And this month's held a pleasant surprise, more photos of Nick Olsen's home. I know it has been featured in the magazine (and we've posted the first 2 pictures before) but I, along with most of our overseas readers, haven't seen it. Nick has a great sense of style. It's witty, classic yet electic with lashings of Hollywood Regency thrown in and embraces colour in all its glory. I loved it when I saw the first few pictures now the room is more complete for me.
