Blue & White ...On My Mind.

The combination of the high gloss walls and super white wall panelling makes for a striking elegant statement.
Definition through Pattern, Visual & Tactile Texture through Surface Materials such as the metallic finish of the lamp to the matte surface of the upholstery & sift furnishing.

Stripes, Ditsy Florals & Stripes in similar colour/ tones ties this look together.

Mrs Howard's showroom - I love this Octopus triptych..

Solid plains mixed with print pattern makes for a tonal colour palette to remain interesting and far from monotonous.

Monday, Monday... Blue & White on my mind... again! How could you ignore these fresh, sophisticated, contemporary rooms - I know I can't!

An Enduring Affair with Blue & White...& Plantation.

Feels like home... The palm fronds add a fresh natural organic element to the room - filtering light through the room. I would love to have this pair of blue & white ceramic base lamps that I am already eyeing off at Architectural Decor, located in Lewisham, Sydney NSW.

Adoration - Blue & White Ginger Jars placed on the top of the armoire, and indigo ground plump cushions with subtle white print & embroidery detail.
Yes, I am having an ongoing affair with blue & white! Thanks to Anna's blog from Absolutely Beautiful Things I have found the work of Phoebe Howard and Leah Kennelly's blog of the Howard business Mrs Howard's Personal Shopper.
I adore the fresh, elegant, plantation style approach with this room - protected in natural neutral shades the palette is combined with blue & white ceramics and plump cushions, fresh green palm fronds and black trunk bamboo, well placed pots of phalaenopsis orchids with their delicate rounded flat petals, combined with the elongated curtains . I find these rooms refreshing, easy to live in and at the same time to be admired through their harmonious balance in colour, shape, texture and style...
