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.

Global Interiors

My continuous research about "Global Interiors" offers me many moments of inspiration as well as indulgence on world living. I have found that many decorating ideas can be transposed from country to country. I'm pretty sure that Designers from around the world give and take from one another; yet, there are some things that seem most traditional to that country's interior styling. Here are a few more "Global Interiors" for your perusal...

1.  Vietnam 

Natural indigenous materials like bamboo is used; pops of colour, traditional / modern

2.  Ireland

Lots of natural materials and colours;

Collective use of re-purposed pieces.
