A fresh and colourful take on traditional

Posted on Tue, 13 Feb 2018 by KiM

Bright yellow walls, grahic patterned curtains and stripes add some pretty bold and playful touches to this other wise fairly traditional home in California. Julie Goldman of J.Latter Design took things up a notch. Several notches really.

Quirky with colour and pattern

Posted on Mon, 12 Feb 2018 by KiM

I continue to be in awe of the creativity and eclectic use of pattern and colour of Tiffany Duggan. This home is no exception. A lovely, colourful project for a young gentleman on the very picturesque Hillgate Place. Moorish influences, interesting textures and bold colours were used to add character and authenticity to this quirky Notting Hill townhouse.

The Collector

Ah Maximalism! Never having to say no to surrounding yourself with what you love. Art, pottery, books and the collections, from treasures to not so mundane mementoes like the remnants of a modern day Grand Tour. It should be chaos but instead this 900 sq ft apartment in Gramercy Park, NY is a celebration of its owner. Design largesse by Alexandra Loew.

Bold use of colour in Paris

When Paris-based creative studio POOL were called upon by Lapeyre to design a domestic set in which to exhibit their collections, the apartment the duo created was no shrinking violet. Graphic use of colour not only defined spaces but provided a dramatic stage for their client’s range of bathroom and kitchen products. Love the “retro freshness” of the palette.

A kaleidoscope of colour

Colour, pattern, quirkiness. Style, finesse and personality. It’s playful. It’s sophisticated. It’s fabulous. I can’t think of a better way to start the new year on Desire to Inspire than this North London home by Australian born, London based designer Peter Mikic.
