Beachy pastels

Posted on Thu, 24 Dec 2015 by KiM

A pastel, beachy oasis on this Christmas Eve by the talented Mr. Waller. With a high of 16 Celsius today and no possible way we are going to have a white Christmas here in Ottawa (a rarity), we might as well be celebrating the holidays on a beach. 🙂 And on that note, I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. Jo will be taking over the blogging for the next week and I will do the following week, with favourite spaces from our 2015 posts, so stay tuned for all that goodness, because we NEVER STOP! Cheers!

Apologies for another double g post but I had to includest this room so I could add it into my Favourite Dining Rooms of 2015. Phew! Just made the cut.

A British period home

Posted on Sun, 20 Dec 2015 by KiM

It is the last weekend before Christmas and I have a million and one things I need to get done today because my holidays don’t start until Christmas Day. To avoid a panic, I am attempting to lose myself in this gorgeous period home located in the UK and available as a location home via Light Locations. A random mix of decor styles, it is clear this is a home whose stunning architecture (and large spaces) lend itself to anything you can throw at it. I really wish though that someone had of put a bit more thought into the lighting. I am over bare bulbs and some more sparkly chandeliers (or anything else) would have been stunning here.

Great living

Great architecture. Great interior design. Great living. Carrical House, Toorak. Renovation by Melbourne-based Rob Mills. Gardens by Paul Bangay. You can see more in the latest edition of Vogue Living.

This bright and colourful family home has me wondering which hero feature I love the most. The bold and vibrant pinks and blues that add personality and drama or the knockout use of wallpaper. I think I’ll pump for both. Layers and layers of loveliness. Fitzroy House by interior designer Kate Challis.
