Colour Void



My Master bedroom & Restored Original Fireplace

Top Left & Bottom Right Images Feature Snippet's of My Hallway

My house has been featured in the new "Colour" book published by Home Beautiful magazine. It is quite ironic really given that the three images are void of any real colour. I have decorated the rooms in a timeless scheme of grey, black and white. I then add accent colour to these rooms depending on the season and my mood.

Coloured Doors of Paddington







Everyday I gain inspiration from my neighborhood. A simple walk around the block can provide me with dozens of new jumping off points for design schemes, thanks to the creative residents I'm surrounded by. There has been much posting on blogs lately regarding vividly painted front doors. I feel nowhere has embraced this trend more then my beloved Paddington. I love the whimsy of these coloured doors and say a big thank you to the owners for brighten up my day every time I walk out of my front door.
