An update of a traditional home

Posted on Mon, 21 Nov 2016 by KiM

This home in Knightsbridge, London is a great example of taking traditional architecture and giving it a contemporary, elegant, and sophisticated update. The chinoiserie panels, velvet upholstery, marble fireplaces, statement light fixtures, modern kitchen and other touches make this home gorgeous and glamorous. Hats of to Staffan Tollgård Design Group for nailing this one. (P.S. Send in your pets on furniture entries to kim[at]desiretoinspire[dot]net or tag them in IG with #dtipetsonfurniture)

Eclectic decor in a British town house

This is about as random and eclectic as it gets. And of course, I love every bit of it. Although I may have decided against stocking up at the big sale when the gymnastics centre closed. 4 story regency town house in Brighton, U.K. available as a location home via jj Locations

Mixing old and new

Posted on Sun, 13 Nov 2016 by KiM

I was totally sold on this home just from the photo above (maybe because of the Weimaraner…or the pretty wallpaper…or that gorgeous divan), but in fact the entire thing is pretty fabulous. Light and airy, with a casually eclectic mix of old and new with a subtly beachy/boho vibe. Sunday eye candy via Nuevo Estilo. (Decor: Barbara Maldonado)

If I ever had any doubts about using pastels in a home, they have all been washed away. I had to share this home in Stockholm because I am going to dream about it allllllll day. And all weekend. So damn pretty!!! Via Bo Bedre, photos: Jonas Interstedt.
