Industrial / Retro Chic seems to be
everywhere at the moment. Half of
The Block contestants have incorporated it (Josh / Jenna and Katrina / Aimee) and it seems every interiors magazine features at least one home in this style too. In fact
Real Living magazine seems to feature this approach almost exclusively. You know when a trend is totally having its moment when stores like
Freedom heavily invest in pieces they'll be showcasing for up to a year! So... am I being influenced to change decor direction again? Yep, you bet! I'll try to incorporate some funky Vintage posters to the eclectic mix I think! What are your thoughts... are you tempted to dip a toe in this
old new direction too?

 |
| I so want Josh and Jenna's 'Salon des ensembliers' Vintage poster by Knoll! |
 |
| Xavier Pauchard Tolix stools, replica or real seen at The Block, Top 3 by Design, Freedom.... EVERYWHERE!!!!! |
 |
| Not sure of source but definitely 'my cup of tea'! |

| Freedom's Summer Collection 2011 showcases this new direction |

ReplyDeleteHow is your upstairs plastering going KL?
B
Oh, that. It's not. Hubbs has got a 3 week deadline to complete a client's project and I've been in hospital this week and will be again next week. There's always a drama here to beat plastering!!! Slow and steady might be added to my growing list of mantras! (After Keep &*%#ing calm and carry on!)
ReplyDeleteLOL! KL
Sorry to hear that :(((
ReplyDeleteI hope you are ok and the hospital business isn't anything serious :(((

Thankyou for your lovely comments about my new bundle of joy. Have a great week xx
ReplyDeleteI still havent made up my mind about this style. Its very hard to get right and some of the pieces can look very 'junky' in a normal household but in a magazine shoot, look very funky. I think its best to lend some ideas and leave the rest alone...at least in my case because I have no idea what I am doing!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blog KL!!!
Mrs B xxo
Ah dearest B....I think you are far more astute than you realise! I totally agree with your comment regarding this trend and gratefully accept your lovely compliment on my Blog. Thank you, you made my day!
