What a place to start your Day

This is a very stunning outdoor space. If I live here, I would spend every breakfast right in this place. (Oh, maybe not on rainy days because then I would just want to pass up on breakfast and sleep or read a book in my room.) Why wouldn’t I? It’s a perfect place to start a day, a gorgeous view, unpolluted air and lovely surroundings. I would feel like I’m on top of the world and the world is at my feet drama would be appropriate, and literally too. This place is so relaxing, with the trees and plants you wouldn’t even think it’s on a penthouse apartment. The fresh sunflowers make the table setting bright and cheerful. The gorgeous round table and six chairs make a perfect focal point in this outdoor space surrounded by limestone planters with lush plants. This outdoor space is truly one stunning place to start your day and I’m sure it will be a stunning place too to have al fresco dining and romantic dinners. Just add some candles and the place will be cozy and romantic but I’m not going to start with that anymore, you can imagine it yourself how to make this as stunning for dinner as it is for breakfast.

A comfortably cozy Media/Game Room

This is a very luxurious yet cozy media/game room. A special place in the house where family and friends can gather comfortably and spend special moments together. Family and friends can enjoy a film, music, or game in this room happily and comfortably. Soft comfortable sofas…check! Right lighting …check! State of the art home theater … check! Warm cozy design …check! Interesting and plush fabrics … check! And if you have any memorabilia to show off this can be a perfect place, right? And if you are Lance Armstrong, seven times winner of Tour de France, what better things to show off than your own winning jerseys in these walls, after all it is not an ordinary achievement and only a few people can top such an accomplishment. I just love the mixture of colors and in this room, not too cheerful and not too dull. The ambience created is just about the right combination needed for a space or room to spend some laidback relaxation and bright happy moments.

Cheerful Kids Room

I always believe that there’s no easier way to cheer up a room than to splash it with yellows and oranges. And all kids’ rooms deserve to be cheerful and bright like this one. This lovely room is simple yet attractive, it only has a few things in it but sometimes that’s all you really need in a kids bedroom. It has an impressive white bunk bed and a splash of yellow and orange on the wall. Add just the perfect set of beddings and some cute children’s stuff toys and this kids’ bedroom is already just the place kids would love to call their own private space. See? It does not need to be so spacious to give your children their own haven inside your house.

What more can I say? This dining room speaks for itself.

What can I say? This dining room is so gorgeous. It exudes elegance and sophistication anywhere you look. I just love the idea of using two different set of chairs with different chair coverings. The Swedish whitewashed armchairs look so lovely, charming and comfortable even with its leather covering. The other set of dining chairs matches the Ainsworth-Noah walnut table and the seat covering matches the drapes too. And don’t you just adore the lighting fixtures here? The symmetrically placed chandelier and two wall mounted zinc lanterns completes the elegant and fresh look of this dining room.
