Add some artwork
I’m quite taken with the lovely wall art in this two storey flat. The pictures really brighten the place up and it just shows you don’t need to spend a lot to make a big difference to the appearance of a room.

Think carefully about colour- are you looking to pick out and highlight accents of colour in the room? Are you wanting to add a fresh, new burst of colour? Which colours are likely to clash with your home accessories? Also consider size- in this flat, the owner has gone with the bigger the better for maximum impact. Fill that blank wall space!


This bookcase by Marcel Wanders for Moooi (above) looks like a piece of artwork, don’t you agree? I like how the books face forward rather than sideways. Practical? Well, no but it looks good! Why hide attractive book covers?!

Loving how this wall-mounted television has been camouflaged by surrounding it with matching picture frames….

Picture Perfect
I’m not sure if it’s the way the colours in the images compliment the soft-green wall, the fact I’ve never seen anything quite like it before, or that it has a cool art deco feel… whatever the reason, I just love this photo frame!

Shop of the Week: Belle and Boo
As we’re on the subject of illustration and art, I thought it would be appropriate to name this cute children’s accessories boutique our Shop of the Week.
Children’s accessories are so delightful and fun… they are probably the best audience to design for as you can really go to town in terms of creativity.

‘My Favourite Spot in Winter’ cushion, £42

‘I Like Your Bow’ mounted print by Mandy Sutcliffe, £20
Feed your child’s imagination with colourful wall art in their bedroom.
‘Little Madam’ doll, £8
The cotton ‘doll’, above, has a little pocket sewn into the back… ideal to use as a lavender bag or a place to put teeth ready for the tooth fairy to collect!

Hotel Fox gets a makeover
I absolutely LOVE the decor of this hotel!!
For the launch of the Volkswagen Fox, 21 international artists from the fields of graphic design, urban art and illustration turned Hotel Fox in Copenhagen, Denmark into an exciting and creative lifestyle hotel (with fantastic results I might add!)

There are 61 rooms in total, and each room is an individual piece of art – from graphic design, fantastic street art and Japanese Manga to spaced out fantasies.
Amazing don’t you think? Not sure I could actually get any sleep with some of the designs, though!
