Upcycling: It’s Good for the Soul

Upcycling: It’s Good for the Soul

Taking on design projects is a fantastic way to let your creative juices flow; they’re almost a form of therapy for the creative mind and they reaffirm that yes, you are in actual fact a DESIGN GENIUS.

My First Guest Post – Autumn Styling

I recently collaborated with fellow blogger, Emily May, where we worked together to create a fabulous Autumn inspired interior.

3D Visualisation Project – Homebase

3D Visualisation Project – Homebase

I recently dived into the Homebase website and had to physically lift my chin from my biscuit coloured carpet when I saw the sparkly, edgy and downright fabulous interiors ‘stuff’ that graced my laptop screen.

3D Visualisation – Welcome to My Dream Office

3D Visualisation – Welcome to My Dream Office

If you, like me, work in an office, chances are you spend at least 8 hours a day in the blasted thing. If you’re unlucky, that means you spend A LOT of time sitting looking at scuffed walls that are in desperate need of a repaint.

Designer Spotlight – Abigail Ryan Homewares

As a design geek, I’m always on the outlook for new and inspiring designs to feed my unwavering passion for interior design. I’ve sampled the delights of IKEA (read it here) and BHS (check it out) on my blog and now I’m turning my attention to a design duo that are much closer to home.

The Art of Displaying Your ‘Stuff’

The Art of Displaying Your ‘Stuff’

Let’s take a look at how you should be displaying your worldly goods, shall we? By following these tips, you would STILL be able to make random purchases from a Charity shop (while blindfolded) look good.

BHS Is Getting Its Freak On!

BHS Is Getting Its Freak On!

I’m thinking that maybe there’s been a huge shake-up in the management structure or something because there’s been some pretty drastic restyling within BHS…and it’s all good!

Oops, I Did It Again…

I like words. And consequently, I like letters. So it should come as no surprise that I like incorporating letters into the design of my personal space.

Industrial Inspired Urban Chic

Industrial inspired design is everywhere you look in the interior design world at the minute. And it’s not a new craze to have stumbled onto the design scene but it has had tremendous staying power.

Period Property Photoshop Overhaul

I came across some pretty awesome photographs uploaded by a fellow Designer and when I clapped eyes on them I couldn’t resist doing a little bit of tweaking to exaggerate their vintage and extremely characterful properties.

Vintage Vases: They’re Hot, Hot, Hot!

I’ve been doing a little bit of internet trawling in an attempt to gleam whatever inspiration I can for the current design scheme that I’m putting together. I’m talkin’ decorative accessories, here.

Post Processing – Who Knew?

Post Processing – Who Knew?

As a self-taught devotee of all things CAD related, I’m continually finding myself on a journey of discovery even though I’ve been dabbling in the ‘art’ of 3D rendering for well over a year now (trust me, it’s an art – my hair-pulling, feet stomping and sulking can vouch for that!!). But I’ve stumbled upon something […]

Design – It Isn’t Just Aesthetics

Design – It Isn’t Just Aesthetics

I’ve become acutely aware that not everyone shares my keen interest in and enthusiasm for all things interior design related.

A Little Trip to the Dark Side

A Little Trip to the Dark Side

Educational establishments should put a disclaimer on all of their Interior Design courses.  Before I embarked on my current journey of discovery I thought I was confident in what I liked and didn’t like, and for good reason. I was a fundamental fan of the neutrals family.  Beige?  Loved it.  Taupe?  It gave me goose bumps.  Glorious shades of […]

A few before and afters

I love before and afters. We all procrastinate a little too much I reckon  (me included trust me) dithering around about whether to change up a room or not.  Panicking it might not work out but you know what just do it. I’ve been over on the forum for the…
