It could be difficult to decide what type of window treatment to use in our homes. When confronted with countless possibilities of window treatments, the feeling could be overwhelming, to say the least. Some windows call for shades, some call for curtain panels, some even for indoor shutters and others beg to let be bare. It would be exceptionally easy if within those previously mentioned categories, weren’t a bunch of other subcategories to choose from. Under shades along, for instance, we have the Roman shade, balloon shades, roller shade, scalloped shade and so on. Under curtain panels, we have different types of pleats to pick and whether or not use a balance or a cornice on top of the curtain. You see where I’m going… I’m amazed at how some people still wonder why there is a reason to hire an Interior Designer… Spoiler alert, because we make things easier.
Read More…When I included a beautiful master bedroom with a canopy bed in my post yesterday, I knew I was going to post the rest of the house today. The London townhouse belongs to Nina Flohr and was designed by Veere Greeney. The home is an excellent interpretation of transitional design, contemporary but clearly rooted in classic Interior Design. I love that this home feels as if it was enveloped in coziness with just the right amount of glam or what I like to call a livable glamour. A touch of lamour is there enough to add some twinkle but it wont overwhelm you and you wont get tired of it. The townhouse once belonged to Nina’s father, Thomas Flohr the founder of VistaJet, an aviation company. Most recently Nina Flohr founded the non-profit Kisawa Sanctuary in Mozambique where she will soon also develop a hotel. The townhouse is featured in this month’s AD where you can read more about it.
