Need for normalcy

We feature a plethora of gorgeous spaces that are often designed by designers and styled by stylists...meaning they're pretty close to perfection. Not a thing out of place. Which is why I love Quarto & Sala so much. I've blogged everyday homes from this Brazilian site in the past (here and here), and I was craving normalcy (and a bit of quirkiness) again today.

Perfectly imperfect. Love them all!

Love the tiled wall in the kitchen and the octagonal quilt, the large wooden coffee table, the 1/2 yellow wall 1/2 wallpaper, etc.... The jean lampshade HAHA. It is nice to see a light colored sofa covered up. That's real! All the photos are so homey, but still more perfect then my home!

Like a big dose of sunshine! That tiled wall is so fun - I think it would look great with a wood floor.

We know we are in a Brazilian home by the parquet floors - a gorgeous national tradition.

Thank you for this post. I feel "real life" home design is the most interesting. It just has more soul.

The Jeans lamp? AWESOME.

We lived in Brazil in the 60's when I was a kid and those floors bring back very happy memories. The parquet in our apartment wasn't glued down or anything - you could actually pick up each "brick" of wood!

This are beautiful! Lovely to break up your posts with these images. Really refreshing - I think you should make this a regular feature, it encouraged me to write a comment I was so inspired by seeing this post amongst the rest.

This kind of house is like been in a friend house in Brasilia- Brazil. The house is full of personality.
