Design Insight: I like ‘em round
/
Rosie girl is totally feeling the round doorway. Designed by Catherine Garrison who has the patience of a saint!
It’s a proven fact that shapes with soft edges are more pleasing for the eye, so I took this theme and ran home (literally, to my house) with it when it came time to updating my entryway. Now, my house was built in the 1920’s, but over the years has been chopped and changed and loved to become a somewhat Spanish with a Scandinavian twist hybrid or Spandinavian, as I like to call it. Sitting at my dining table, with a cup of coffee and this view makes me infinitely happy. I’m clearly not alone in my love of circles, there’s 800 Pinterest boards to prove it! See below for some of my faves.
Fashion designer Pierre Cardin built a WHOLE house using round bubbles motifs (with the help of architect Antii Lovag). Go and look at all the pics....your head will spin!
Oh Japan! You always do it right! Wabi-sabi centers on the acceptance of imperfections in beautiful things. Looks dreamy.
Well this is just amazing isn't it? Round, frilly and 1930's inspired.
