Work in Progress






I thought I'd share a couple of in-progress photos of a house I am currently working on.  The wallpaper in the powder room was just installed the other day and we also recently completed the main bedroom.  We are about to commence work in the formal lounge room.  The colours we have chosen for the lounge room are orange, purple, green and duck-egg blue.  Next time I'm over at this house I will try to take a photo of the outside as it is one of the prettiest houses I've seen here in Brisbane.

I love that wallpaper, especially all the chipper little creatures on it x

Wow.... Dramatic! Perfect for a powder room! I love dramatic powder rooms because it doesn't over power the rest of the house, yet makes a great statement with guests.

The wallpaper is so cool... Can I call it "Amazon"? :-) Love it!

Beautiful! I love white bathrooms with high impact colour. That deep green is perfect with glossy white. Please post some more pictures!

Penelope Bianchi said...

I hope it is all right to ask about the wallpaper!! Who makes it?

It is so unusual! I thought I had seen pretty much all wallpaper! Gorgeous!

white tile is always an inspired choice.......you can change the colors so easily on the walls.........

Classic

Alecia @ Tchotchkes etc. said...

What a great use of such a beautiful wallpaper!

It's such a busy print that it would be overbearing from floor to ceiling in such a small space - but just using from the photo rail upwards is brilliant - the white timber still allows the space to look clean and calming, but the paper is such a great pop of colour and really enhances the high ceilings too.

Gorgeous wallpaper...can't wait to see the outside!!

Kelly Green said...

Nice one! (ok - translate that to mean absolutely stunning!) KG

I Dream Of said...

I'm completely smitten with that mirror. And the wallpaper... WOW! Amazing work.

Mrs BC said...

That looks amazing! With the sconce lighting leaving the high ceilings dimly lit it creates the illusion that the (beautiful, interesting) wallpaper is actually a forest canopy. The rest of the crisp white bathroom feels not foresty at all but clean & fresh.
Love it!

Love the wallpaper! Duck-egg blue? I've never heard of that ... reminds me of the paint colors in Mr. Blandings Builds His Dreamhouse ... have you seen that movie? That was my favorite part when she was trying to tell the painter the exact colors she wanted. If you haven't seen it, you should try to watch... great movie! I will look forward to you sharing the exterior!

Rev. Tera Little said...

Jenny said...

plain jane styling said...

the wallpaper is so incredibly perfect with the glossy white wood,.. divine.

Delightful Domestic Science said...

Lovely! I was just in the USA and was taking pictures of the rest room in the hotel I was staying. Louvered doors, golden ornate door handles, marble, chandeliers, ornate mirrors and so on. Loved seeing white louvers in this powder room.

Pineapple Villa said...

I can imagine it would feel very nice to be getting ready in that bathroom! Mel xx

PA said...

beautifully balanced!!! gorgeous :)

MT said...

I LOVE this! The wallpaper is fab and it's such a lovely idea having the panelling reach so high on the wall, I've only ever used it hip-high, would love to try this approach. Can't wait to see the other pictures!

Anna Spiro said...

Thank you! The wallpaper is a Thibaut for those who have asked.

I loooove this look. I'm considering wallpapering my bathroom and after seeing how good this looks, along with another great wallpapered bath I saw here http://www.aliceindesignland.com/blog/designer-showcase-m-design-interiors.html. I think I'm going to go for it. Thanks!

Jilly said...

Beautiful :)

the gardener's cottage said...

hi anna,

i know i sound like a broken record but your designs are just amazing to me. i have so much trouble adding a 3rd color to my black and white scheme and you do it effortlessly. i often dream of having you come in here and waving your magic wand of pinks, greens, blues and yellows. you should consider doing a post showing those of us afraid of adding the vibrant colors that you use in your life. pretty please.

I agree Janet. I am just making the mental move into colours, but it has not translated into action yet.

Thanks for the Thibaut source on the Wallpaper. We're in Atlanta, Georgia and are now going to use it in our 1920s green on green tiled bathroom. I'll send pictures when it's done - so excited. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
