Oriental rugs

Oriental rugs have been around for years and I feel that the older they are the better! Mainly because then they have a story to tell, why and who tired this carpet out? 

This passion of mine was rekindled when I visited Liberties in London. They have so many carpets pilled so high! It’s a moths dream. (and mine.)

Hallways

Since moving into my new house we have been planning how to redecorate and organise the hallway. It isn't the biggest hallway so we will need to be clever with the design do it functions effectively. My main tips or a hallway is to keep it as light as possible! What I mean by this that you need to balance out how much dark and light furnishing there is. For example if u have dark flooring, buy light furniture and vis versa, to keep the light open feel. 

Below are some of my ideal hallways and I hope they get you excited and inspired to redesign your hallway.   

Storage is the most important but also the most difficult aspect to a hallway. Therefore, I hope that these pictures will help to decorate your hallway.

Not only storage but also flooring changes the look completely. This could be tiles, rugs, boards, anything. My personal favorite is tiles or a rug just like the one shown in the third picture down.

Half painted walls

It is very rare that I follow the rules or produce something without a twist, making this wall decorating idea perfect for me! I have already painted a section of my wall a different colour, making this style to my liking. 

Recently I have been seeing more post of walls pained with rough uneven edges. This interests me more as it softens the room and creates a gentle blend, rather than the bold straight lines on other designs.

Some people have taken this trend to the next level and have created dynamic geometric designs across their rooms. (pretty cool)

Paradisco Productions - Posters

I've recently stumbled across these amazing posters from PARADISCO PRODUCTIONS which was created by Tina Rud Pedersen. Her love for fashion, illustration and micro-organic shapes has created these amazing patterns created from sketches and ink paintings. I adore the freedom and randomness of the poster so much i couldn't help but share it with you. The natural shapes, contrast from b/w to pastel to bright colours, catches my imagination making me want to buy all of her work for each room of my house. 

I think that these designs can be great inspiration for a fun DIY of flicking and splattering paint over canvases or even curtains creating your own pattern of nature.
