Mood Board | A Cozy Office / Guest Room

I’ve yet to live in a house with a either a dedicated work space or a room for guests to stay. Today’s mood board combines the two: a cosy office / guest room with muted tones of blush pink, blue-grey and mustard.

Mood Board Collective | A Bright, Beachy Living Room

Mood Board Collective | A Bright, Beachy Living Room

The Mood Board Collective is a monthly design “challenge,” where different interiors bloggers take the same inspiration piece and use it to create a room design for any space they want. This month, the starting point was a pretty print of a seagull painting, which I used to create a beachy living room design. I love the happy colour palette in the painting, and I decided to roll with it. I pulled bright pink, emerald green and yellows from the…

Mood Board | An Eclectic Entryway Design

Mood Board | An Eclectic Entryway Design

I have been swooning over this eclectic entryway design by Yana Pauca, blogger at Nomad Luxuries, ever since I spotted it on Pinterest. I love the mix of vintage and modern pieces, and I’ve put together a mood board to recreate the look. The Inspiration Get the Look Pauca writes a fab travel/lifestyle blog, and her stunning entryway was sourced as eclectically as you’d expect. But it’s not difficult to recreate a similar look using pieces from online and high street…

Organising An Industrial Toddler Bedroom

Organising An Industrial Toddler Bedroom

Before moving back to the UK, we lived in two different loft apartments in the same Chicago building. Because I’d only just finished designing my son’s industrial toddler bedroom when we had to move from the first apartment, I kept the interior design very similar in his new bedroom. The new room was a similar size, with the same raw concrete ceilings and pillars. This room had huge steel framed windows where the first was an enclosed loft room, and…

Industrial Living Room Design Progress, Chicago

Industrial Living Room Design Progress, Chicago

I used to live in a converted meat-packing factory in Chicago’s University Village area. The building was packed with incredible industrial features, and although I wasn’t able to complete the living room from an interior design perspective, it’s worth a look. When we moved in, a bold red wall with patches of mismatched paint dominated the room. It’s a long wall, and I didn’t want a big expanse of solid colour. Wallpaper wasn’t in the budget, so I chose to…

Mood Board Collective | Black, White & Pink

I picked an inspiration photo for this month’s mood board challenge specifically because it’s a colour combo that I wouldn’t normally choose. Taking this same black, white and pink inspiration image, myself and two other interiors bloggers created different room designs. Emmerson & Fifteenth | Family Room Mood Board I put together a comfy family room design in black, white and soft pink. There’s storage for kids’ toys and a plush velvet sectional for parents to lounge on. Pink can…

Mood Board Collective | Aqua, Salmon & Grey

This month’s mood board collective inspiration image is a bright, graphic infinity scarf chosen by Sarah. Using the same salmon, aqua and grey reference image as a starting point, four interiors bloggers have created their own room designs. There are no other parameters, and it’s always fun to see the different directions we all take in our mood boards. Emmerson & Fifteenth | Office Mood Board The colour combo gave me an excuse to design a room around a grey…
