Colour, colour, colour
Thu, 16 Dec 2010
Yes I'm craving colour at the moment. Great big dollops of saturated colour. So I love these shots styled by Jakob Solgren. Sometimes quirky, sometimes bold, perhaps a little subtle, perhaps not. Great ideas to steal too. Loving the torn artwork in the first photo. The pink dresser juxtaposed with the psychedelic green dining room. Turquoise and chinese red nursery? Just a few calming Scandi white rooms too from real rooms, family rooms to some just a little more haute. All I know is I think though I need a pink plaid rug for my sofa and one can never have enough kilims ...pink kilims!
If you like this post wait till you see what Kim has coming later today :)

Amazings pictures, so inspirational!
I think that color in a home makes for a happier one.
Fantastic photos! Inspirational! I totally agree about the pink dresser with the green room behind - my folks have a pink dining room and a green sitting room - the sitting room door opens into the dining room and looks fabulous when the door is open and you can see the green against the pink! This reminded me of that. :)
As a visual artist the torn artwork resonates with me. I must say I've never thought of mounting one in this way. Interesting. Your colour jolts were quite a shock from my calm cream and gray household. I love colour but I cannot live in too much of it. Great pics. I just found your blog and will return.
Loving those images, those Chandeliers are so beautiful :)

Love the colour, especially the first few.
Too few people loved colour the way I did. Sad, but true.
Love your blog.
delicious colors. i'm inspired!
How do I get my hands on the art in the first picture that appears to be still shot of the hotel hallway from the shining? I love it and I must have it.
have always been a great big fan of colour, especially with a "u" in it (the only way to spell, in my canadian book). my fave - the fuchsia kitchen.
thankyou ..thank you.. thank you... I desperately needed a color fix this morning!
GORGEOUS color!
happy colorful day!
I second Tonia. I love colors!
That wide shot? With the colourful lounge and left to right sweeps of colour? Brilliant unique styling. Very clever.
Exactly what Kevin said in the comments above. I want that photo from The Shining!
