| This bronze statue lights our entrance hallway. |
Isn't it interesting how design plays such a significant role in our lives.
Some things are admired for their beauty, some for their practicality.
I always think it is best when the two attributes are combined.
 |
| This french clock tells me the time. The old fireplace is an architectural feature but is also capable of warming the room. |
 |
| This bench top is practical for preparing food and you can never have enough storage. As for the stool, it makes a great place for someone to sit at with a glass of wine to keep me company while I cook. |
 |
| The balustrade is athestically pleasing and comes with the added benefit of stopping me falling down the stairs. |
There's windows and then there's windows. This arched window at the top
of the landing acts as a skylight. The light dances and changes throughout
the day.
 |
| I love the design of these doorstoppers and how practical! |
 |
| I wouldn't be without a rail for drying clothes. The shirts dry with almost no creases. I only bought a dryer last year. We managed to go 35 years of married life without one. |
 |
| The opening skylight in the laundry is beautifully designed and has improved the feel of the room enormously. |
 |
| The rattan inserts in the built-in robes look 'plantation' style and have the benefit of allowing airflow through the clothes, avoiding mould. |
And how elegant are silk curtains with their luxurious tie-backs?
Just a few of my favourite things.
Eclectic I know.
