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. This beautiful black and white example sits in a restored Dutch farmhouse, and it instantly caught my eye because of its sophisticated, minimalist design.
