This time from Carocim. Beautiful, decorative and mellow they bring a touch of class to any floor. Note too the current trend for combining a tiled finish with the warmth of wood.

Out there interiors - quirky furniture for the home
Jumping on the current trend for upcycling, I think this site is great. I stumbled across them from notonthehighstreet.com but their main site www.outthereinteriors.com and they have a vast selection of furniture that is of the moment and not available in mainstream stores. From retro to industrial, upcycled to nordic their range is great for finding unusual, affordable finishing touches for a room.
Here's a small selection from their cabinet range for starters...

Flooring to take notice of
Zazous.co.uk do a beautiful range of both authentic encaustic cement tiles and vinyl flooring - both reminiscent of lazy mediterranean sejours. The former are the pricier choice at c. £170/sq metre, with the vinyl selection coming in at a fraction of the price at £19.99/sq metre. Neither selection is vast, but they certainly make for eye catching flooring solutions.

This article on www.houzz.com made me smile. What does your bedroom say about you?!

Here are some highlights...
"I celebrated my divorce by completely redoing the bedroom. I couldn't be happier."
"We used to fight about pillows. Now we don't."
"We are a gay, double income, no kids couple in the city. Once of us is a lawyer: the other is a designer. We have no pets, but we do have a killer wine collection."
"I am a very successful single woman in the city. I like fashion, traveling to Europe and spa days. I have a weekly mani-pedi appointment."
"We're never home to enjoy our amazing bedroom."

The Walldrobe
I so love this mural from www.mrperswall.com. Reminiscent of Carrie in Sex and the City, I am itching for the right brief to give it a worthy home. I could look at this for hours.

Oh my word, I think this is gorgeous.
As well as doing a whole range of rugs, cushions and underlays, www.auskin.com do a fabulous range of luxurious sheepskin beanbags that you just want to sink into. Available in 3 sizes, they come in a selection of colours from natural tones to bright reds and purples. Why should kids have all the fun. I want one.
