Pinterest is a veritable treasure trove of interior design ideas, and all sorts of ideas, really. For example, I find the deep, moody blue and purple hues in this living room enchanting.
But, after scanning tons of interiors, some gorgeous, some totally over-done, and most at least a little on the busy side for my taste, I yearn for something simpler and more sincere. This refurbished Lebanese home in Batroun, documented by the New York Times in 2010, gets it just right. Fresh, bright, and a bit styled, yet welcoming and livable, don't you think?
How have you decorated your home? Does form or function reign, or do you strike a balance between the two? And where do you find design influences?

This is gorgeous! For me, the wonderful thing about design today is that there are so many beautiful, quality, accesible things that balancing form and function is perfectly feasible. I love the plants in the Lebanese home. Thank you for sharing!!

ReplyDeleteI'm so happy that you enjoyed this, Sofi! And I completely agree with you re the availability of beautiful, functional pieces for the home. Our favorite Miss Pixie's is a perfect example of retailers that help to make this possible. xx
