If you know me, you’ll know I have a penchant for gloss paint! I’ve wanted to create a red study/library/creative space/very bold room for some time, so having the opportunity to do that in my back bedroom has been a real trip! Although the box bedroom is exactly that (just over 2 meters squared pre- bookcases), I knew that designed well, the wall to wall glossy bookcases would really work in here, regardless of it’s size.

It’s interesting that by adding something as simple as pictures to walls can dramatically change the feel of a space and turn a house onto a cosy home. In the same way that accessories such as cushions, vases and throws add interest and depth to a room, art work on the walls does the same thing by elevating a mere shell into a place that has life, soul and warmth.
I've always swooned over beautiful round dining tables with interesting leg detail, made out of chunky solid wood with an intense graphic pattern on the surface, I didn't however, like the price of them!
