Bathe in Luxury
How fun is this bathroom, designed by half-Egyptian, half-British designer Karim Rashid?!! It’s light years away from my preferred girly vintage style but still, I absolutely love it!

The aethetically pleasing minimal rounded shapes will undoubtedly have the whole family queing to use the bathroom! My only bugbear is with the finish of the base of the sink and bath; I can’t help feeling that this spoils the flow of the shape and gives the room a bit of a cheap, plastic look. I would like to see the base just disappearing into the flooring as one piece. Then again perhaps I’m just picky!
Other colour combinations are available but I have a personal preference for the pink. Not sure the boyfriend would agree, though…

‘Wow, wow, wow!’ was my reaction when I saw this gorgeous front room in Metropolitain Home.
New York designer John Lyle made it his mission to transform his brother’s Mississippi traditional-looking home into a contemporary dream…

I love the duck-egg blue with the black and white. And who would have thought this brave mixture of pattern would work so well?! You can see the main colours used throughout are simply yellow and black, however the clever use of contrasting patterned fabrics means you could never call this pallett boring!


“The rooms flow into each other, so there had to be a common thread to link them,” Lyle explains. What a talented man!

I was literally blown away by these houses on Architectural’s Digest 100 Great Spaces feature. Minimalistic, yet still warm and homely, they are just stunning. Having grown up in Greece, I am a sucker for blue skies and the sea, so I can just imagine myself living happily ever after in the Norman Foster house! Click here for even more inspiration…
