The Home of Ingrid Aune Westrum

Have a little peek into the home of Norwegian blogger Ingrid Aune Westrum - it is filled with light, colour and pattern; the closer you look at these images the more you notice the lovely and whimsical details throughout. This is an interior that doesn't take itself too seriously... now that sounds good for a Friday!

The Home of Alex Fulton

If you haven't already, head out and grab a copy of the latest Your Home and Garden to see an awesome feature on the home of designer Alex Fulton. Her home is full of colour, pattern and whimsy; a true example of someone who isn't afraid to just design using her heart - not her head, surrounding herself with things that make her happy as opposed to designing 'by the book'.

Interior Designer Crush: Abigail Ahern

I've recently re-discovered the talented UK interior designer, Abigail Ahern.
Between designing interiors and product, running a store, flying all over the world to run seminars and putting out books she is a very busy lady... totally inspiring!

Abigail's signature style includes the use of dark, moody paint colours, a complete mash-up of furniture styles and combinations of scale, and a general disregard for the 'rules' of design, ie. a strong dislike for all things symmetrical. Very refreshing!

Her blog is a great source for tips and tales of her design life - I particularly love a statement that I have heard (read) her say often - that all rooms should have a touch of whimsy or humour included wherever possible.
