Super Cool House Tour

My favourite homes are the ones that are a true reflection of their owners. They are unique, like no other, because they are filled with things that the owners love. They evolve over time, and grow and change to fit around the family's lifestyle. The home of Alexandra Grenham, her husband, John, and their two daughters, is a prime example.

Most of the home is one large open space, but Alexandra, who is the Creative Director for Erie Drive, has cleverly created zones for the different areas. Rugs mark the territory of the kitchen and living room. And the large outdoor table converted for indoor use anchors the dining area. The light above the table is another way to help zone the dining area.

The girls have taken over the master bedroom, and the large space is perfect for playing as well as sleeping. Another large rug creates a cosiness, and the scale of the gorgeous artwork works well in the big room.

I love this home, it feels relaxed and playful, and I can imagine lots of fun times had here. What more can you ask for from a home?!

HKLiving Style

I was flicking through the latest HKLiving Spring catalogue and was so impressed with the gorgeous styling. The products are all amazing, but it still takes a great eye and a talented stylist to show them to their full potential, so we can see how cool they really are. After a bit of research I discovered that the stylist was Paulina Arcklin - I should've known! I've featured Paulina on the blog before here and here - she is brilliant, don't you agree?!

Home on Wheels

Caravans are right up there with my ever-lasting love of lofts. Both delighted me as a child, and continue to as an adult. It probably started with the book series "Mr Galliano's Circus" that I read as a kid. There's something so endearing about a tiny home on wheels, especially when it's as beautiful as this 1972 Airstream Landyacht owned by Charity D'Amato.

After extensive structural work and interior redesign, the caravan is now the perfect 'glamping' vacation home. Sleek high gloss white enamel creates a light, bright and airy interior. The Mini Modern wallpaper is, in my opinion, the hero, and helps to set the nautical theme which is repeated throughout.

I'd be very happy to head off for the weekend in "Amelia the Airstream". For more information hop over and read the original feature on Design*Sponge.
