White living rooms are simple yet classy and at the same time allow the home to exude a mix of moods. This property by Light Locations, a UK based location agency, has a simple palette of white which is a perfect milieu for the modern finishes and features. An arty use of bright objet d’art, with ambient light fittings, upholstery and curtains is a creative high spot. The unexpected bright pink couch and black chesterfield makes the room pleasing and inviting. The white background has allowed the designer to play with contrasting artefacts in the wall unit, multicolour door wall panelling and exquisitely bright flower vase in corners. Vivid coloured furniture in bedroom, bath and kitchen give a touch of exclusiveness. The vast wood-framed windows recessed and elevated ceilings, the lagoon blue staircase that makes its way with poise from the main floor to the upper level, give a spa-inspired space of supreme luxury.

Victorian and Classic Interior Decor Design Ideas
If you wish for a classic style for your interior decor space such as neoclassical, victorian, revival, you should try to add some richer, bolder colors, a sense of classic, touch of royalty to your home interior design. A dark red with a white chair rail and maybe some white picture frames would make for a great dining room. For your living room full bodied green such as a sage green. When trying to make a classic feel to your home remember the movies about the 14th, 15th, and 16th century and the classic ambiance of the mansions and estates. With any lucky your home will resemble a palace when completed.
Going Victorian though is a lot harder than picking contemporary styles and design as you are trying to recreate the past. The interior Victorian paint colors are no short of being awesome with the right choice of furnishing and decors. If you are a person who is looking for the unique blend of antique and fashionable colors then there can be no better choice than the Victorian paint colors. Here are some of the classic interior decorating ideas pictures that could help you shaping your interior room decoration to be like in victorian and classic style.

Passive house - Home In The Middle of Nature
This lovely Passive House estate was designed by Dutch architects Sluijmer & Van Leeuwen and is currently owned by the Utrecht Landscape Foundation. The villa represented a challenge from the very start.
Building something in the middle of nature is not always easy, because the resources are sometimes scarce. This is why a huge creative effort was needed in order to create this fantastic design with all the utilities included in a place surrounded by “185 hectares of forests and agricultural land”. Still, everything turned out great. The exterior design is something else and the interiors are beautiful and spacious. Have a pick at results in the pictures below!

Crazy About Montecito
Of all the places I've traveled to in the United States, Santa Barbara is probably my favorite. To be more exact, Montecito. If you can say a city or town has "it", this place definitely does. With the beach, the mountains, the climate, the architecture, the food. I just don't think it can get much better.
The times I've been there, I love to drive around to see all the incredible homes and gardens. Many are very difficult to see from the road because of the enormous walls and most of the homes are set so far from the street. Last time we were there we dragged the kids to an estate sale just so we could see the property -- the last thing kids want to do on a Spring Break.
Well known interior designer John Saladino's estate is one of these. Fortunately, C Magazine, did a story on his incredible home (you can also see it in his book).
His Italianate villa was built in 1929 by architect and builder Wallace Frost. Saladino did an incredible job of remodeling the house that is quintessential Monticeto.
The roof is 18th century Italian handmade terra-cotta tile. He brought in more than 4,000 trees and shrubs including these incredible 50 year old Italian cypress trees.
The interior is just as amazing as the exterior. Many of the interior walls are the same stone as the exterior. The steel windows and doors are incredible. We are currently building a Mediterranean house in Fort Worth with windows and doors very similar.
I love the urn set into the stone window surround. The ivy covered wall in perfect.
The dining room, with the (what I believe to be) cypress paneling and ceiling and Italian chandelier is beautiful.
All of the above pictures from C Magazine.
Another well published interior designer, Michael Smith, did an incredible job at the former Pillsbury estate in Montecito -- Las Encintas. This Portuguese-style house was originally a California Mission Revival house built in the 1890s and is set into the hillside. It is much different from Saladino's but typical old Montecito. More formal and crisp.
The tile in the living room and powder bath typical Portuguese and are handmade in Los Angeles. We are using a very similar tile from the same tile company for a current job.
I love how Smith gave the powder bath a true Period Revival feel.
While I love my city, Montecito is one of those places that is just very difficult to beat.
All of the pictures of Las Encinitas come from Santa Barbara magazine.

New York English Style Interior Design
English Style Interior Designs
When you’re choosing an interior designer whose style is English country or one of the famous periods, your first decision is how authentic your want the décor to be. Some want every detail picture-perfect; while others want a hint of English in the fabrics, furniture or accessories
Whether your idea of French style is formal or country, part of the fun is knowing where to shop and how to get the most style for your dollar. If you’re interested in antiques, then your best buy will be at auction; if style is more important than provenance, you’ll have a world of choices. My only suggestion: instead of being slavish, adapt English style to your style.

This kitchen was recently featured on an HGTV special, called “Top Ten Amazing Kitchens.” The producers scoured the country looking for the best representation of luxury kitchens, but it was up to America to vote on their favorites. When the show finally aired, it was revealed that the #2 favorite was this gracious kitchen in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Given the generous size of the kitchen, the space needed to be careful divided into individual work zones. This is accomplished by creating two islands with distinct functions. The main island features a prep sink and pull-out trash, while the secondary island encourages guests to visit without getting in the cook’s way. The main sink under the window serves as the principal clean-up area with two dishwashers. Pull-out pilasters next to the sink even conceal the dishtowels. Finally, a small peninsula veers toward the family room to house refrigerator drawers, an ice maker and bar sink for guest’s beverages.
