Day: June 2, 2010

Since I mentioned before that I’m slowly working on my deck during my spare time, I have been searching for rooms that inspire me. I’m looking to create a more relaxing and cozy outdoor space; a place where we can hang out for hours without getting our backs twisted. This room has incredibly beautiful details that are eye catching such as the gorgeous arched ceilings,
de Gournay wallpaper, the many orchids displayed throughout, the simple and unusual black and blue floor tiles and I can go on and on. The only thing I would bring with me into this room is lots of pillows for those back iron chairs, an ottoman to put up my feet, a few books and drinks.

I’m an advocate for strong architecture, big dominating art and sculptural shaped furniture. Francesco and Gael Boglione’s house in Richmond, England has lime-washed walls that get enhanced even further with the couple’s incredible art collection that include works by Gary Hume, Lucien Freud and Damien Hirst among others. The most interesting part of this house is how the couple were able to keep it elegantly simple while having that impressive collection of art.
