I almost called this post “If I were a room…” because it’s true. That gorgeous green nook makes my heart sing. Christina Murphy is one of the rising young guns of American interior design. Starting her career with Celerie Kemble her website is still in development with portfolio coming soon but the press section lets you choose pdfs of her work at Kemble Interiors so of course I had to include those until we get to see more when the website is finished. Hopefully that won’t be too long because I love the green room and can’t wait to see more!

Too many beautiful images in Lucyina Moodie’s portfolio. Where do I start? What photos do I choose? I sat in awe as I clicked from image to image. Great styling so modern yet feminine and still with a hint of vintage. Hey vintage is the new modern. Love Lucyina’s work can’t you tell?

Alise O’Brien is an internationally recognised and award winning architectural and interiors photographer. She’s the one that architects call on to capture their work on film, a talented professional. I call her an artist. Beautiful light, clever composition and great colour. Yes she has it all but more importantly her photos of stunning spaces have soul. As we all know it’s easy to take a photo. It takes talent to take a great one.

I must stop searching real estate sites particularly when I come across fabulous houses on fabulous blocks of land. This Sunshine Coast house is just a few hours north of where I sit and I think it’s love at first sight. Look at that view! The architect has wisely chosen to not compete with the spectacular site but to enhance it. The house is modern and seaside holiday tough but there are just enough luxuries and….that view! Can anyone lend me the money?

Please Sir may I have this house? And this garden? Especially the tulips. Eccentric, quirky, well loved and well worn. Historic, irreverent and down right British! I love this decorating style, part shambling 19th century digs, part inherited my great uncle’s furnishings with lashings of boarding school fun. OK I made that up but you must admit the Brits do this so well. Tiger print and tulips. Yes please!
