The 'It' rug

I seriously think that rug is an integral part of living room decor as it helps to define an area from another..especially important in open plan living situation.

But being the thing under our feet, most of us tend to think that they are of less importance. Often times they either get ignored or purposely chose in neutral colours in the hope that we do not have to change them when we decide to update our decor in the future..

At the moment, i am deeply in love with rugs that can make a statement. But having said that, i still do not want my rug to outshown my painstakingly painted pink furnitures.. So, what colour should i choose?

Green of course!

Green reminds me of the garden that i do not have living in a small apartment (on student allowance and all..) It brings my invincible outside room, inside. =^.^=

I haven't bought any rug, obviously...because that requires a carefully orchestrated discussion with the boss of the house, my hubby.. But, here are my inspirations...











Aren't they lovely?
These rugs are from the furnitureluxurydesign.com. I will not be able to afford them, but i certainly find pleasure on swooning over them... =)

What do think?

That dream lounge

I don't have a house yet, can't really buy houses when you are thousands of kilometers away from home, can you? But gosh I do love decorating. Now that I have some spare time in between the teaching and the research, I figure maybe I should start with the decor pan.

So let us start with that dream lounge.




For a special place where everyone gather and loosen up after a hard day's work, soft cool colour with a lot of plush cushions, air condition and warm lightings. I can just land on one of the sofas and take a slumber right now.

I had always love a dream theme for my house but it could be too overwhelming for such a busy area like the lounge, what with children running around during the weekend chasing after each other (how cute, i I am picturing children in my future! =^.^=). so adding the classic swing could just do the part without too much complications to the room.

The materials and pictures were inspired from one of Gwyneth Paltrow's houses. Yup, houses (plural).. But she really has a class doesn't she?

Next will be the bedroom and the tree branches double bed will be the inspiration. *wink,wink*
