Interiors: Heaven For Industrialists

Died and gone to heaven. Me.

I love, love, LOVE the hex tile under the dining set and how it blends into the plank wood flooring… brilliant in every way.  Size. Colour. Application. LOVE.

Those wall mounted ‘stick men’ light fixtures, standing like soldiers in the hallway, a great way to make that wall a feature. Sometimes, all it takes is simplicity and repetition to make a statement.

The shower… oh boy… the shower. Those blackened tiles, deep and dark, offset by intricately patterned black and white floor tiles that extend out from the shower, underneath the vanity and freestanding blackened tub, melding it all together. So fabulous – did I mention ‘heaven’??

Interiors: Grey Matter

I love grey… or gray…either way you spell it… I LOVE it.

Here, it’s mixed with natural materials – dark slate tile, unstained wood grain flooring, steel accents and ivory accessories. But it’s the finishing touches that really make this apartment interior special… the simple black frames and white mats around the artwork, light fixtures that hold their own, an antique drop-front secretary dressed in detail, and a reverent wooden Buddha strung with beaded jewellery.
