Colouring my life

I'm all jet lagged. I hate it. Its 4am and I have been awake for a couple of hours now dreaming about all the wonderful things I could have if money grew on trees. I've been dreaming about the direction I want to take the design on our home. We have some money aside that people gave us as gifts for our wedding and we have decided that we are going to put it towards and new dining room setting. After much research on my behalf, going from Eames Eiffel bases with a vintage table, to stock standard IKEA settings, Jarrod and I have finally agreed on a setting style that will reflect who we are.Different coloured Thornet Bentwood chairs with arm chairs at either end of a worn oak table. And I feel that it is the perfect inspiration for the future design development of our home.first image from here

Inspirational Interiors

I came across this article from the cool hunter and was mesmerised by the life that this interior brings. The crisp white is softened with the geometric layering of the ceiling panels and given an energetic lift with the greenery. The life that plants bring into interior spaces is still greatly underestimated.
This venue would make a wonderful setting for a classy summer lunch time event and early evening. With cucumber sandwiches and martinis, succulents, white Singapore orchids and maybe the occasional birds of paradise. One day... one day when I'm a successful and rich event designer (ha!) I will design and build an event venue just like this with a large timber deck overlooking the water.
