{colour inspiration: moody & atmospheric}
Friday 7th May, 2010

. . . have always dreamed of spring in shades of sunny whites and whispered greens, but recently the skies have been dark at turns and golden at others and during the cloudy moments, imagine spring as dusk and deep violet — moody and atmospheric — the colour of thundershowers . . .

I love the colors of that room. They are very peaceful.
This is just so classy and simple. I really like it.
That first shot is really beautiful. It’s amazing how the color of the wall and the flowers on the vase give a plain space such a boost.
i always forget how beautiful branches look in a vase – thank you for reminding me.

I’ve been loving all shades of purple lately!! Though purple has been dominating fashion for a couple of years now, I feel like just now I am seeing in interiors more and more!
