My heart skipped a bit when I saw this lovely bathroom. Oh everything in it is perfect. From the white tub and its lovely faucets to the lovely chandelier that would provide warm lighting for night baths and relaxation. I'm in love with the rough flooring of this bathroom, for sure I would not slip and it gives a rustic and cozy feel. And a little veranda on a bathroom? Why not?
I heart this room. This colorful white bedroom, (I know if its white, it must not be colorful but this one is) is what I really want and need right now especially that my cough and colds are on a high. The white walls, ceilings, and marvelous white floor really made this room so very relaxing and the colorful elements inside it especially the fabrics makes you feel the sunny and fresh vibe of this bedroom. And I love the lamps, especially the reading lamp beside the fab round green pillow. I love reading before sleeping, and yes, sometimes even when I have cough and colds I read before sleeping. The chic chair, the lovely tables, the simple painting, and especially the blanket makes this white bedroom so lovely and so inviting. Actually, this white bedroom is my kind of bedroom these days.
Wow! what a view. If I have a view like that while posting on my blog, I think I can write really cool stuff that would dazzle even the smartest one in blogosphere:) Okay the table could be a little bit wider because I love working on a wide space, too many papers and knick knacks around my desk, oh but I definitely love the bookshelves on both sides. And the tufted chair puts a little glam on this home office plus the pink flowers puts a touch of warmth and coziness. Actually, flowers are welcome in every place of my house because wherever there are flowers the place becomes more inviting. The only downside I can think of if I have a view like this is that I could spend hours staring out and not be able to do a thing at all.

My Ideal Home
click image to enlarge I just love how the reds are popping in this blue and green dining room. The chandelier and the lamps are so gorgeous I really would welcome them in my own home. And reds really look good with white, I think we all learned that already when we were in grade school learning about the flags of different countries. The wenge finished dining table is also a presence, it is simple yet sturdy looking, I actually like that in dining tables. The dining chairs are so lovely having two different upholstery pattern for front and back that matches the color of the walls and curtain. Oh I still can't get enough of the reds in this dining room.

I love everything about this chic and cozy living room. Nice floors, comfy sofa, splendid light fixtures especially the chandelier above, lovely rug, its spaciousness, its white walls and ceiling, the elegant design of the wallpaper and of course the smart and skillful interior designing done to come up with this immaculate living room.

This living room is just so fabulous. It is so relaxing yet not lacking of color and energy. I love the splash of colors in this living space, from the needlepoint pillows that make themselves noticeable even after your eyes pop out of appreciation for the comfortable sofa covered in blue and white fabric from Brunchwig & Fils, to the four deep-seated armchairs with blue, green, and white diamond pattern with its silver scroll detail, and the carpet that matches the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico. The white walls and white round coffee table provides the calm and tranquil side of this living room plus the coral on top of the table is a reminder that this is a tropical haven. And who wouldn’t love to have a large expanse of glass that gives you a spectacular view and lots of natural light?

This is one Luxurious Bathroom. This bathroom sure screams opulence. From the first time you look at it until the time you really take a good look at each design element and items in it you know that this bathroom is uber luxurious. Because there are room spaces that at first glance you think is so opulent but when you really take a look at it you know that it is not so. But this bathroom is luxury all the way, with its floor to ceiling covered with Calcutta Gold Marble, its copper bench chair paired with an antique lounge chair, a lovely terrace, and a very peaceful and picturesque view of the ocean. It looks so immaculate, spacious, bright and airy, just my kind of bathroom that I could spend hours in doing a lot things other than taking a luxurious bath.

The moment I saw this pink and orange nook I gasped at its beauty, I could feel my heart doing its happy dance. Maybe its a girl thing that we love pink so much even when we're already past our teen years for when I showed it to my hubby, he just had a blank look on his face and somewhat oblivious as to why this image of a nook gives me so much joy. And orange...oh its really the It Color these days, it is so vibrant and makes any space look cheerful and full of positive energy. Pink + Orange color combo really appeals to me, and this little corner or nook which is an extension of the equally lovely neutral living room is a feast to the eyes. Love the table and chairs, the wall and the frames, the long orange drapes, and I just adore the transparent pendant lamp from Kartell. Hmmm... but the living room also has so much treasures in it...oh but maybe some other time.

It's really hard to design a room using mix styles. But this dining room from Wary Meyers succeeds in creating a lovely dining space blending elements of modern and traditional styles of designing. The modern dining chairs and table go well with the delicately designed traditional wallpaper, wooden cabinet and the red brick wall. The chandelier creates a statement of its own and since I love wooden floors I so heart the fab wooden floors in this dining room. And I'm sure this dining room is more airy and brighter than it looks because of the tall windows on the wall. This lovely dining room is a testament that an elegant and sophisticated look can be achieved with a fusion of modern and traditional style.

The first thing that attracted me to this bedroom are the luxurious leisure chairs and ottomans in front of the fireplace. Actually, the orderliness of this bedroom appeals to me but of course if I'm actually living there I wouldn't be able to keep it up as spic and span as it is now. A magazine or book would be lying somewhere and the bed would not be as made up as it is now. Speaking of the bed, I just adore it, charming really. I have to confess, I haven't got the chance to sleep on a four poster bed yet but I would love the experience someday, and I hope my first four poster bed would have the romantic soft bed curtains. Just noticed the lightings on this room, I love the chandy and of course the carpet which is not too flashy...just perfect for this traditional dainty and charming bedroom.

Just look at this lovely breakfast room, what's not to like about it? I especially heart the bay windows and the drapes... so much light and sunshine but so stylish too. I could actually see myself sitting on the bay window seat half-asleep not really minding my breakfast, just lazing around for a couple of minutes before prepping myself up for a busy day ahead. The lamp is also adorable and could be a good source of light on nighttime because if I have this breakfast room this space would definitely be used also for dining at times and a sitting room when my friends visit. Lovely, lovely space.

What I love about this white bedroom is that it looks so elegant yet it is so easy for us to recreate it in our own homes. I love big windows in bedrooms just like on this one because of the natural light and fresh air it brings in the room. I also love the idea of having white sheets on my bed because it looks so neat and crisp fresh plus if you just add elements or accents with wonderful lively colors on top and presto... you make the colors pop out and the space to look chic and energizing.

Don't you find this nook interesting? I do. From the unique design of the two chairs to the intricate woodwork for its background this nook captivates my attention. Although its design style is not something I may incorporate in my own house, I love looking at it. The table and its beautifully designed feet commands style and even opulence. And I adore the addition of books, oh I love books, almost every corner of my house has book/s waiting to be opened and read.

This predominantly white bedroom feels so light to the senses. Even just by looking at this dainty and immaculate bedroom one can already feel relaxed and comfortable. The use use of delicate white sheets and pillowcases, the all white floors and ceilings, and even the two white fans hanging can make you feel you are in a secluded happy place, a place of comfort and carefree living yet the big enough windows allow you to enjoy and take a glimpse of the beauty of your outside surroundings. The touches of green on the wallpainting and on other fabrics gives this space life and color. Hmmm... I'd love to take a nap or even a deep sleep in one of these very relaxing white bedrooms.

Oh I just love the look of this lovely nook. So well lighted, airy and with that very comfy chair and ottoman to lay down and put your feet up to how can one not love this space? It has a view and a ready shawl to warm you up in case it gets a little breezy or cold. This kind of space is where I want to be when I'm in the mood for reading or contemplating something...

This beautiful living room has a very feminine feel. Well, at least for me, and I mean it in a good way. I love how the furniture is arranged in this room and how the warm ambiance gives a really cozy feel that would allow for family and close friends to enjoy intimate and even secret conversations and at the same time could also be a good place to hold little social gatherings. I also adore the artworks that adorn this living room. The flimsy and delicate curtains that give way to a little sunlight during daytime is such a nice touch in this dainty and beautifully styled living room.

I just love the look of this bedroom. Perfect for a kid’s bedroom, yet any adult can’t complain to have this kind of a restful retreat too. The colors are fresh and soothing and the armchairs look so comfy, a real cozy thing for a kid to park himself into. Oh and of course aside from the bed being comfortable and relaxing it is also dreamy and inviting. And who wouldn’t love those cute stuff toys on the bed and a bit of toys laying around on the floor…I think it is a real cute touch in any kid’s private space. Hmmm… a cool kid’s space, very elegantly styled and oh so fresh looking.

This bedroom is stylish, opulent, and very comfortable. I say this bedroom is fit for a queen, not necessarily a royal queen but any queen of the house should be given the privilege to sleep in one of these bedrooms. Although I love the minimalist and modern look in the bedroom, there are still times when as a woman I would get to see one of these stylish and opulently styled bedrooms with bed crown, fancy chandeliers, and lovely luxurious drapes and it is enough to make me dreamy and long for some chance to be able to experience how it is to stay in one. I love the elegance and symmetry of this bedroom, the use of luxurious fabrics and pleasing color, the chandy, the invitingly lavish bed and the lovely chair beside it.

This is a very tranquil and relaxing Thai bedroom with very distinct modern touches. The comfortable platform bed plus the wooden art piece beside the bed gives this bedroom an Asian feel. The artworks are calming …not too bright which is in compliment with the relaxing ambiance of the room. Except of course for the Marilyn …but that one looks cool. And I simply adore the clear acrylic “orb” chairs that hang from a chrome frame…if I could only have one of those hanging orb chairs I won’t mind if I don’t get to lounge on it just the pleasure of having such a mod and luxurious piece is enough to thrill me.

This nook which is really a part of the bedroom appeals to me. It looks so relaxing with that comfy chair and ottoman … a place to put the feet up and do some napping or just to have a few moments to close the eyes and contemplate…just what I needed right now. And notice that the window behind the comfy chair allows natural light to come in so it is also a perfect spot to do some reading or writing in your diary or planner. And this nook looks chic too with that lovely white mirrored dresser that reflects the other parts of this gorgeous bedroom.

This vintage chic bedroom looks so welcoming. The vintage pieces are scattered around the bedroom and gives off a bit of whimsy and grace in this bedroom space. The mix of colors, textures, and patterns created a charming ambiance that would make anybody feel at home and relaxed. The window with its red floral curtain as backdrop of the bed plus a gorgeous chandelier above that crowns it all is simple perfection. And oh, the pale blue bench at the end of the bed is so classy.

I just love the look of this dining room. Its simplicity is so charming. The sturdy-looking wood table looks so perfect with the wonderful wooden flooring and the addition of those elegant leather upholstered chairs gives this space a cozy and fresh feel. But what is really amazing about this dining room is the magnificent view of the garden outside. Bravo for the big glass windows that allows the diners to enjoy the view while enjoying sumptuous meals in this cozy and fresh dining room.

This white and woody living room exudes comfort, freshness, and coziness. I just love a room that allows natural light to pass through just like this one because it gives an air of freshness and lightness. The use of light colors and wood elements in this room are perfect to create a simple and comfortable living room but at the same does not lack style and grace necessary to make it inviting and pleasant. I love the coffee table and the console table, they are eye-catchers in their simplicity. Plus, the white pots and lamps add an ambiance of easy living…and oh the sofa may be small but it sure is comfy.

This bathroom has elegance and classiness written all over it. From the colors to the flooring to the glass encased shower to the mirrors, lamps, and chandelier… it is all elegance. Its spaciousness is pleasing, gives you ample space to move around and even offers a little sitting area for you to park yourself when you felt like it. I love the two lavatories, probably a his-and-hers, for those of us who have to share we would welcome such a pleasure of having our own space in the bathroom. And it is even a good place to start morning conversations with the better half. What more can I say? This bathroom is perfectly elegant.

This playground looking kids’ bathroom with an under-the-sea theme looks so cool. The colors, decors and patterns used are fun and lively, really perfect for kids. The lavatory, mirror, rugs, and even the easel show wonderful design artistry that not only incorporates function but also gives value and importance to what kids want. The flush toilet is playful and the inclusion of a television set would make any child proud and happy. Imagine yourself being a child/kid again and having to be able to watch your fave show while doing some potty time ... hmmm must be a blissful privilege. And I love the idea of having chalkboard walls on this bathroom. If we enjoy having a blackboard in our kitchen don’t you think the kids will love them more in their own bathroom? Something for them to make doodles and sketches, and if we’re lucky we might get some cute and loving messages from them too… something to lighten our load when it’s time to clean their fun and far from boring bathroom.
