FLOWER POWER

I love flowers, I love leaves:P I just I hope i will be able to have a small garden when i own a house. My parents love gardening we have a small garden which is not really beautiful but ok... so i took my camera and took few pictures thought it would inspire me. After I took pictures I just realized how many textures and colour gradients are so well put together. Well hats off to gods creativity :)

Greece inpiration


Have you watched "The sisterhood travelling pants"?well if you had not watch it they film in Greece(not the whole movie) and I fell in love with Greece.Why???? because almost 90% percent of the houses are white washed and has royal blue windows, doors and roof which is soooo beautiful. The tiny white houses and the narrow roads and the beautiful sea is just exquisite. So I found few pictures that can be inspired. When I have my own place(which is gonna be like after 10 years or so lol)I want to have a room inspired my Greece:)

If i had a wishing lamp.........

Antara Resort is where i wanna spend my honeymoon;) but I need 10 bags full of money lol... This place is definitely an inspiration for an interior designer. Can you ask for more??? A beautiful ocean, the lovely white beach, over- water suites and sip fresh chilled lime juice(I love lime juice:P) and to forget all your worries this place is perfect, simply perfect.... My uncle used to work in Maldives he told me its beautiful and at night you could see the fins of the sharks gleaming how cool is that????






Fashion and Decor

Yesterday I gotta chat with so many bloggers and designers. My day coudnt end any better:) Thanks to "abcddesigns" and "Jonathan legate" who invited me:)Anyway since its fall I thought I would connect design and fashion together. Even though here in Sri Lanka its either raining or sunny(which means we don't have Autumn)I still love the colours and the look of it.By the way i don't own any of these pictures, i had saved these pictures long time back for my interior course:)and i put them together :):):)




I love the blue and we could totally connect the touch of mustard on shirt to the wood floor





i just adore the art and i love the egg yolk color and the models fur color is so cute




Dark green and dark brown can never go wrong!!!

I was reading "The Notting hill" blog I one of the blogs which I adore I came across 'Liz Levin interiors". I was drooling over every project they had done. Especially the first picture thats really my style I like to make a room interesting with a pop of color. Th pictures she chooses are classic and definitely an eye catcher and her choice of fabric is just amazing.

Brad Ford

All I could say is WOW!!! love the abstract designs , the simplicity of the furniture and the neutral palette. The light fittings over the dining table is simply amazing. He proves that design doesn't have to be in perfect shape its all how you have you connect things together.
