Creative Work Spaces....

Most companies use ‘open plan’ offices......employees are lined up in rows of cube-shaped spaces. It is monotonous, uninspiring and highly systematic.




A new age is dawning........................









A really interesting article on this subject at the Cool Hunter.

Cutest Cafe............


Katarina of Katarina's Verden blog posted about her favourite cafe in Copenhagen. A gorgeous 1760 building painted in a lovely green.............I am sure that this colour building would just look garish in Australia with our harsh southern light.....but looks so very charming on the other side of the world !!! Lovely !!

I do have such an obsession with cushions....this could be my couch......although it looks spectacular.........there is no room for a bum.....I must put this picture in my wallet so that when I am about to hand over cash for a cushion....I may think twice ...........who am I kidding.....I'm a hopeless case.

Aura Lifestyle...

I love this image.........the textured grey wall against the fresh shiny lime green leaves.

It's a Colourful Life !!!









Wow......a colour explosion............Jamie Drake of Drake Design Associates reinvents an 1840 house. See at Point Click.
I absolutely adore the combinations, although I personally couldn't live here with this much strong colour. I love how the chocolate and neutral tones ground the scheme.............sigh.
