I had to smile at all the comments on my Autumn post! It’s very peculiar to be trawling through endless pictures of cherry blossoms and summer dresses whilst we hunker down with stew and fleece blankets (fessing up here, it’s only really dipped to about 18 degrees which is a UK summer. In my defence, we are acclimatised now). However, having grown up in the Southern Hemisphere, I finally feel like all is back to normal. It’s still very very wet in Sydney so I wanted to stick with the cozy theme this week. I managed to find another doozy on NZ House and Garden (how have I lived without this resource?) – another Waikeke Island beauty (owned by NZ interior designer Anna Desbonnets, NZ’s very own version of Martha Stewart apparently). Warm and dark woods, rich jewelled coloured rugs and layers of art and texture make this one of the most inviting homes I have come across in a while. When I first saw it, I thought it screamed: Come right in, make yourself at home. Don’t you think?

I can't stop looking at this house! The contrast of the white walls and black accents (that fireplace) is so compelling to me. I'm so glad you're back in a blogging groove again... you suss out the best, most inspiring places!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the color combinations in this house. The first picture is really inspiring to me.
ReplyDeleteYes, I could definitely see myself plopping right down onto that sofa. Such an interesting mix of modern and traditional . And let's not forget to mention that dining space that opens to the outside?!
ReplyDeleteoh, what a home. love, love, love all the artwork!!
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh, this is all one house? it's amazing. i agree with lauren about the white and black contrasts, i love it paired with all the cozy elements. i also agree with her that's it's great to have you back in the blogosphere.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is a very welcoming home. I particularly like the outdoor space with the two sets of doors leading back into the house. I like the mix of styles too.
