Modern House Minimalist Design

Sharing a white, bright, stylish apartment in Sweden.  White walls and vaulted ceilings always create an immense feeling of space and are fabulous for showing off artwork. Unlike some white interiors appearing rather clinical, the designer has added personality and warmth by adding the Persian rug with its rich colours and pattern.. The accent cushions, aged leather pouffe (footstool), and other leather furnishings balance the overall look.  Who would have thought, stacked magazines and a medley of pictures could end up a stylish corner (image 3). This lovely interior has personality and order, and for me is a winner!

I love the white painted wooden floors in the living area, these also work well in coastal interiors . I also like the kitchen cabinets, especially those chunky handles they help give it that "solid feeling", there is nothing worse than flimsy kitchen handles.

Well, what can I say but Wow!, it snowed in Auckland yesterday, apparently the first time for 79 years. I was sitting at my desk working when I saw what first appeared to be small hail stones. However, they were not falling heavy like hail but drifting down slowly, next minute the drifts increased  and suddenly I realised it was snowing in Mission Bay, Auckland.  I was literally astounded but smiled and rushed for my camera.  Unfortunately the snow melted as soon as it touched any surface and my photos are sadly not clear enough to post on my blog. I have decided however, to keep with the "white" theme today and posting some inspiring white interiors with a little touch of colour to some of them.   white on white  greys on white - love the framed photos on the wall, I intend to do similar in my hall with the prints I purchased from Faux Kiss I love the country classic look of this room - searching for a similar coffee table for my living room white with a ...
