Domino





After seeing the top image on High Street Market I was quickly reminded how much this home inspires me. It one of those that I never tire of. It is from the June/July '08 Domino issue, one of my fave issues of all time. I even used the second image as inspiration for my style test that Kirsten of Simply Grove did of me way back in '08. I must say all the images I used then would make my list today. Oh, and what did my style test come out to be... Traditionally modern with a love for sporadic rustic and natural elements. She was spot on I believe.

    Love that style as well. I am swooning over that first blue and green interior. Beautiful!

    Ah Domino - RIP. Loved that magazine and cherish every back copy collecting dust, that I take down and flick through every now and then. Great colours in the living room and the bedroom looks so calm and restful too.

    Oh how I miss Domino! It was the first style magazine I ever fell in love with, and I was a dedicated subscriber for many years. Seeing all of these beautiful rooms makes me think I'll be digging out those magazines and enjoying them once more.

    okay, back again. this is such a deft use of color. I love how it's repeated from room to room, but you don't automatically think "hey this room is the same color as the last one."

    still get the sads about domino... fundamental wrongness that it's gone.

    How I miss that wonderful mag. I have that last bedroom image saved in my files. I adore the way they incorporated a fabric on top of the headboard - genius!

    I love the first two images also and used both of them in a post about sofas in front of windows. I'm telling you Paula - we think alike!

    The couch in the first image...I love everything about it! And, the night stand in the last one is so perfect! All of it is pure inspiration.

    I'm lovin' the green velvet sofa in the first photo. I've been thinking about doing a headboard in a similar color. I'm trying to work up the courage to do it, so thanks for the inspiration.

    I loved all the fabric featured in these images; both the plain and patterned ones are subtle yet stunning.
