Global Decor

As I continue my trek around the the interior design world, I am fascinated by the the similarities and differences. 

In this series you have probably noticed that some countries are just steeped in the pure culture of their country. 

Most of the following homes are decorated in themes and styles that are purely regional. 

In the past few posts many of the interior designed rooms are actually quite interchangeable between countries.

 Check out these exciting rooms in

Observations ~ The preferential colour pallette seems to be neutrals. Rooms tend to be more stark with large pieces. Natural materials seem to be widely used. Regional artifacts and themes are subtle. Styling seems very angular and minimalist in nature.

Worldly Designs

In part three we check out the "Worldly Designs" in the United Kingdom, Turkey and Portugal. Although, there are differences to decorating choices there are definitely some common themes. The use of colour, history, collections and rustic overtures are common threads. These rooms look like they live and breathe.
