New workshops at caldesign

The Dynamic Room Design workshop provides the opportunity to explore and build upon your room decorating ideas and you will come away with a clear and concise plan of action to make your project a reality.

Jennifer French, Principal of Inside Out Colour and Design, will guide you towards your finished room. Through a fun and interactive session, you will not only have access to Jennifer’s years of experience and knowledge but also gain insight from other participants.

Bring along details of the room you would like to improve including photos, measurements and any objects you may like to incorporate into your design. Through the workshop you will create an inspiration board with fabrics, colours and images to help you on your way!

Kitchen design inspiration

On my inspiration board this week are 

kitchens, kitchens and more kitchens... 

Have you guessed what my next project is...?

These are my top six.

The colour scheme in this one is great

I am loving dark cabinets and lighter walls at the moment,

it can be a nice change from the all white/off white scheme that tends to

dominate the industry

The kitchen below gets top marks for beauty and practicality

this one is my favourite

A beautiful country style kitchen below

it screams comfort, relaxation and tranquility 

perfect for the weekend!

The kitchen below is the proof that small can be indeed beautiful and practical 

love it!

Below is the ultimate combo

a beautiful mix of modern & classic  

perfection!

This is a gorgeous and spacious kitchen

bright and sunny

could suit both country and city living

with antique pendant lights to die for and gorgeous fittings

not bad hey?

Which one is your favourite?

Nothing looks better than bright colour on a rainy/grey day like today, don't you think?

It makes my Monday look a bit more exciting...

Colour on white

Generally the following is true:

There's nothing fresher than splashes of bright colour on white

One can have a lot of fun with artwork when using a neutral palette

There's a lot more versatility when selecting art, soft furnishings and materials for a neutral scheme

The final result is a cool and modern look which works well with both new and older homes

Dark cabinetry works beautifully with white walls

Fun coloured pendants are a fun way to introduce bright colour

(and are a beautiful focal point too)

The pink door adds cheerfulness and works well with the dark feature wall 

The successful colour on white look is achieved below

Love this home

Have a wonderful week

Monday inspiration / First project for 2014

I'm working on my first project for 2014 and that includes selecting interior colour, 

materials and finishes for a brand new home in Sydney 

as well as exterior colours, materials and finishes.

Needless to say that I've been buried in colour charts, laminex/formica samples

caesar stone, colorbond, bricks, etc., for about a week...

This home below is up on my board at the moment

It has beautiful features and stunning elements.

I find the recycled hardwood beams + glass + splash of colour combo

simply stunning

Impossible to look past it.

 I love that this home has been designed for both grown-ups and kids

 It's elegant and contemporary

But warm and fun too

(Isn't this kids' door heaps of fun?)

 Top marks for this gorgeous kids corner/bed and stunning floorboards throughout 

 Amazing reflections + glass and beams side by side = Love!

Beautiful shelves in the study with blue & green colour boxes, such fun!
