Dream Holiday

In the midst of a pretty cold winter, I have been dreaming of warm weather, sipping cocktails, and sauntering around in cotton sun dresses. I think I may have found the perfect place to do this... San Giorgio is an elegant 34-room boutique hotel located at San Giorgio beach on the mediterranean island of Mykonos.

Melding the carefree finesse of the '60s bohemian life with a down-to-earth 'gypset' approach, at San Giorgio, everything is about ease and enjoyment. Leisure is writ large and guests are encouraged to store or spend energy as they please. At San Giorgio it's like visiting the summer home of your coolest friend, who whips together a feast for the eyes and palate with as much ease and grace as he throws the island's most talked-about fete. And you're along for the ride! - Design Hotels

Pattern Layer

Colour and pattern always excite me, especially when I see them layered. The amazing selection of wallpapers that are available to us now make a great base. Don't be afraid to mix patterns, and keep your colour palette to three or four colours that work well together.

Danish Delight

I'm feeling overdue for a shot of Scandinavian design, so take a little tour around the lovely Danish home of Anne Lousie Breiner and her family. Anne Louise shares my loves of great chairs and black & white stripes, and my dis-like of 'matchy-matchy' (is that a legitimate interior design term?). When there is so much great design out there, why choose identical pieces, why not mix it up a bit - for interests sake!
