For the most part when we think of ‘neutrals’, we think of the obvious grey, black, beige etc; but there is a trick to incorporating colour in a subtle way!

Pop of Black

We hear the term ‘pop of color’ all the time, but how about a pop of black? A pop of color is used to add a wow element to a design; it adds interest and personality. It is often the final detail, but the first thing noticed.

All About The Details

One thing that I have noticed is that any of my favourite looks, whether it be in fashion or interiors, often have little details that seem to make all the difference. Just take a look at the images I have added to this journal - nothing looks over the top or too contrived, yet there is something special in each design.

Abstract and Organic Shapes

I am totally loving organic shapes...and I’m thinking (and hoping) that they’re here to stay for a while. By no means is this a new concept. We can look to history to see many times that design was very nature-inspired and organic, however I think there is a real need for natural and softer shapes in a very tech-centred and busy world.
