It’s probably fairly obvious from these pages that I have a bit of a thing for grey… In fact, my entire house is decorated in various shades, with little other colour apart from plants. And, although I’ve always admired homes which combine grey and other calming neutrals with eye-catching accents, I’ve shied away from this myself as I’ve been nervous about creating anything overpowering. So, I was . . .
Room Envy | A smart monochrome bathroom
Dark autumn evenings are the perfect excuse for long, indulgent soaks in the tub, so it seemed appropriate to pick a bathroom for this month’s ‘Room Envy’ post.

Such a limited palette would make many spaces look cold, but the huge variety of textures and patterns . . .
Vintage-style lighting (& discount!) from William & Watson
Lighting is probably one of the most important aspects of good interior design, but in my experience it’s also the trickiest to source; whenever I decorate a room, I seem to spend ages hunting far and wide for something to match whatever look I’ve conjured up in my head, often to no avail.
