A splash of colour

I am definitely more conservative when it comes to decorating and colour in my interiors. I tend to stick to neutral or very safe colours. Whilst there's nothing wrong with this I have found that since beginning studying colour and design that my my appreciation for colour and its successful use in interiors especially has broadened my tastes.

There's something about this living room below that just speaks to me. The use of colour, the quirky elements (garden gnome anyone?), it all somehow works.





These photos are of a house in Toronto designed by R H Carter Architects. Although initially drawn to the living room the remainder of the space continues to showcase brilliant design, eclectic pieces and bold colour choices.








Although not specifically to my taste, homes like this one inspire me to make more bold choices. How do you feel about bold colour? Could you live in this space?
