Colourful brights in Adore Home

I have been drowning under an 

avalanche of work lately, 

with projects both in planning and construction,

with not a second to focus on anything else.

So many beautiful projects! 

While hunting for new fabrics for one of these

lovely homes,  I have just discovered 

the latest issue of Adore Home.

{Yes, I know it came out last week...oops!}

I am completely smitten with the bright colours

of Bluebellgray, the Scottish fabric firm

headed up by textile designer Fiona Douglas,

whose own home is in the magazine. 

These gorgeous fabrics have a 

hand painted look to them. 

Such vibrancy! 

And there is also a delightful article on 

some of Melbourne's hidden design treasures. 

The girls know us well because the 

opening paragraph mentions our 

obsession with coffee! 

So true! 

{I often wonder if the main reason 

I moved to Melbourne was to indulge my 

coffee obsession...}

The freshly refurbished Stokehouse 

restaurant gets a mention...

...as does stylist Lucy Fenton's glorious 

treasure of homewear delights: Fenton & Fenton.

Also love the bright fresh colour hits 

in the Sydney home of interior designer Vivian Mansour.

Now, enough of that and back to work!

But I might just start sketching poppies

into my elevations....
