I simply love the house on the cover of this months House and Garden Magazine. It seems that in Australia we are very traditional in the way that we present the exterior of our homes. Take a look through any UK or Scandinavian design magazine and you seen an abundance of colour used as simple, understated highlights against a back drop of sophisticated and subdued base colour. Mustard, blue and red can often be seen as a highlight colour on a feature door, chimney or window frame hight it just gives it that POP! A refreshing visual experience. So when I saw the gorgeous royal blue architrave frames of the house on the cover this month, I was very happy. Still subtle and unobtrusive to the eye, however by being a little left of centre and contrary to the norm, this topsy turvy, simple addition breathes life and energy to the home and makes you wonder - what other refreshing delights are to be found inside? xx
