Three New Home Office Trends for 2018
Home office trends are bigger business than ever because having an office at home is now a very normal inclusion; unlike a few years ago when a man told me I was “a girlie in a house”. Thankfully, perceptions have change considerably along with home office trends in decor. Now, if you work permanently from home or just part-time, a dedicated workspace is vital. No more using half the dining room table or perching on the edge of the breakfast bar. Importantly, working from home isn’t about lounging around in your pyjamas until midday and balancing your laptop on your…

Stunning Beverley Hills Home
I love taking inspiration from classical design, eclectic decor and calming spaces. Inspiration can be found regardless of cost, because money doesn’t buy taste. However, when given the opportunity to take a peek around a Beverley Hills Home then I’ll say “Yes please”. This luxury residence is very pleasing to the senses with the use of pastels, pops of colour and generously proportioned rooms. There is the strong use of symmetry in some rooms, such as the impressive entrance foyer, and subtle use in others, creating an organised casual ambiance. The living areas are luxurious yet very inviting. The use…

Monochromatic : Black and White Bathroom
A monochromatic colour scheme does not refer simply to the use of black & white. Monochromatic refers to the use of one colour hue – mono – and its shades, tints and tones. This style of decor allows for a greater range of contrasting tones therefore attracting attention, creating focus and even supporting legibility. However, black and white are ‘non-colours’ so careful design and colour knowledge minimise spaces looking stark and bland; this combination can look modern, clean, fresh and dynamic. Before I show you a new black and white bathroom designed by Raymor, I want to show some other…
