Mix and Match

Moodboard - with images and work by Wary Meyers, Sukan, Selfridges, Cornishware and Kim Parker.

A few thoughts on interior decoration.


When it comes to interior decoration I enjoy an eclectic mix of styles and think colour is hugely significant. I think a neutral base is important but when it comes to the finishing touches cushions, accessories, throws and pictures - colour, texture, theme and shape can affect the mood of a home dramatically. Depending on what session it is, these things can be swapped around, for example warm woollen throws and snugly rugs can be brought out in winter.

When it comes to colour in my opinion colour it is to be enjoyed - and will ooze out of any house I ever live in. Bright floral cushions, stripy mugs, and hand painted table cloths with flags on. A bright lick of paint to an old piece of furniture can bring a sense of the joy of summer to an interior no matter what time of year it is.

William Morris said this… “Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful”And I couldn’t agree more.
