Classically neutral

Posted on Tue, 20 Dec 2016 by KiM

I continue to be smitten with Andrew Brown‘s sophisticated, classic+contemporary+modern blend of styles with an always soothing neutral scheme and this home is no exception. Gorgeous and timeless.

A home with antiques and vintage finds

Posted on Tue, 20 Dec 2016 by KiM

I adore this home featured in Nuevo Estilo. When each piece has a history and tells a story, when they all come together in a beautifully and thoughtfully curated way that I just want to melt into each space. I would love to know what stories the chesterfield above could tell….

If you would like to participate in the Monday’s pets on furniture series please send photos, your name, location and a brief description to kim[@]desiretoinspire[.]net, or hashtag your photos #DTIpetsonfurniture. Thanks!

Minnie and Max from Australia would like to wish everyone a happy festive season and a happy and healthy 2017

Here are two shots of our kitten Pinot noir (aka Peanut) on our tuxedo sofa from Room & Board next to the mid-century chair that I stripped and had reupholstered.  I’m getting ready to redo the chair in an indigo stripe – that will go better in this house than our previous house (in Montreal).
– Karen & Yves (Norfolk, Virginia)

A couple of oldies from me. The first, when I decided Felix should partake in the annual Christmas photo, and Pheobe on the bed in my last house.

The billabong

Posted on Mon, 19 Dec 2016 by KiM

Billabong (BIL-ə-bong) – an isolated pond left behind after a river changes course.

A swimming pond at the end of the garden? Yes please. Even better if it doesn’t have a slimy bottom 😉 This beautifully crafted pool and surrounding garden are by Sydney-based Landart Landscapes. Love the cantilevered boardwalk perfect for that running jump into the cool waiting water.

What do you get when you take a gorgeous 5,000+ sq ft, 6 bedroom 6 bathroom Tudor-style brick home in Utah and add homeowners who have the wackiest, most colourful taste I have seen in a long time? You get this – one of the most unexpected combinations, ever. For sale via cityhomeCOLLECTIVE.
