A EUROPEAN HAVEN

We love the chance to travel and explore the wonders that await us at each end of the globe. Some of the most grand and beautiful architecture, interiors and artwork originate and exist in the world’s oldest cities. So, why not use these luxurious ideas and designs to invent your own little haven at home?

Wake up feeling like a European princess every day by spoiling yourself and your home. This European inspired bedroom celebrates luxury, glamour and art.  Focus on rounded shapes and palettes of cream, cool pastels and metal to project an elegance and romance. Introduce French-inspired furniture with rounded edges and curvy legs to reflect comfort and delicacy – We suggest our ‘Vivienne Square Ottoman’.

Intricately designed lighting pieces – particularly table lamps and chandeliers, are perfect ways to express European fashion.  Indulge in some of our most elaborate European-inspired designs: Our ‘Addison Table Lamp (Off-White)’ and ‘Haley Table Lamp’ are royal and bold designs that are sure to transform your bedroom into a palace. It is idealistic to team these feature designs with more delicate pieces to balance out your decor without neglecting the importance of design. Our ‘Andrea Table Lamp’ and ‘Caroline Table Lamp’ are slim and graceful designs – yet both pieces pay great attention to detail in their structure and delicate neck design.

If you still can’t get enough of your European sanctuary, consider treating yourself to our range of ‘Couture Wall Art’ and ‘Bally Wall Art’ that reflect glamour, chic and style. Spoil yourself to the luxuries of European royalty in your own private palace, and enliven the walls of your home with what France does best: fashion.

BROADEN THE SPECTRUM

Toss aside your fear of cramped or cluttered spaces, and start designing your home to be smart and spacious.  Small living spaces do not necessarily restrict your use of decor, but instead, require you to focus on using them to invent optical illusions with the particular use of reflection.  

Although, the use of reflection is the oldest trick in the book, we shouldn’t use it as an excuse to neglect the opportunity for grand and creative design.  Maximise the illusion of depth in your living space by selecting a focal point in the room and positioning mirrors toward it. This will allow a clever play on light.  We have a range of table lamps that provide luxurious lighting, as well as reflective elements upon the design of their stem. These include designs such as our Bond Street Table Lamp, Luxe Table Lamp and Empire XL range, just to name a few.

Mirrors can also be positioned near windows to reflect the natural scenic beauty outdoors, or used to enhance light upon a decorative focal point. Decor should be implemented sparingly to avoid clutter. However, if you find it difficult to minimise decorative features, perhaps it is wise to consider the type of decor in your design. Think outside the box by including a range of decor pieces that possess mirror-like attributes, like reflective metal or glass, to the design of your room. Bold metallic decor pieces, like our Lattice Decorative Stand, stands confidently on its own. Alternatively, our Lexington Mirror Tray and Layla Tissue Box are perfect for a more subtle reflection of space, as well as directing light towards complimenting decorative features.
