INSPIRATION ROOM

No, I'm not fortunate enough to have my own inspiration room but Brooke whom I met on the AV forum does. She was kind enough to let me use her photos on my blog so thank you Brooke!

"... i believe a bedroom is for sleeping and every girl needs a room where she
go and relax, read her new issue of vogue, and enjoy a cup of tea"

The room is used simply for relaxation & as a reading and study room. Vintage inspired furniture, graphic silk pillows and little things as a classic black typewriter,vintage gold bird cage and a simple topiary, complete the room. The items were gather from flea markets, and a local unique furnishing store... I love these types of rooms so full of inspiration!

ODDS!

I would install the goose feathers suspension lamp in my living room, the grass orb in the kitchen

"Observing the transformation of the grass over time thus becomes a unique
experience." -grass land

LOVE IT OR HATE IT?

IT'S NATURAL...

(click on photos for links)

I appreciate ordinary elements like wood so much that I can't help myself but to pick up small twigs or branches here and there. They have their own distinctive beauty & most of all they don't cost a dime! Bird in the hand artist Lisa Congdon creatively incorporated nature into her bedroom by arranging a tree stump & a large branch along with white bird figures. Her home decor is also very nice. I'm just an admirer of her work...

Frank Gehry Vitra Cloud lamps

Made from a fire-resistant polyester material
Gehrys first attempt at the clouds lamp were with kraft paper and later perfected with the help of Rolf Fehlbaum (the renowned design patron of Vitra). Fascianting...

The delicate paper of Gehry's clouds lamps are almost the exact equivalent of the countless silk folds of this Chloé dress. (see the detailed view here)

GOOD NEWS...

(Today I'm posting mostly anthropologie inspiration!)

Can you imagine newspaper walls? My first thought "they belong in a cage" but of course Anthropologie had to prove me wrong although I wouldn't probably use them in my home! I think the furnishings also help pull it off editorially!
