Winter Living Rooms

The winter chill is here in Sydney. Although we are quite lucky that winter usually involves sunny days & much less freezing weather than what the rest of the world would call winter! In any case i find in winter, sunny days or not, its definately a time to nest into a cosy living room! Im loving dark walls & fur throws at the moment!

Armchair Collective - my new obsession!

One of my clients took me here for coffee after a site visit last week & i am officially obsessed! 'Armchair Collective' right down near the beach carpark at Mona Vale (Sydney) on Darley Street! Its an awesome eclectic homewares store with a cafe & bar all rolled into one! I cant rave about it enough so ill let the piccies i took do the talking! We went for a coffee & i was very lucky to leave without clearing out my bank account! All i can say is GO THERE!

can i have this pendant?

pretty please?

Coffee Nook

Maybe its because since we bought a coffee machine for home i seem to be becoming a tad more addicted to the liquid gold stuff, but I really like the idea of creating a little nook in your kitchen area dedicated to coffee! (or tea) This one has to be my fav (& ive posted it before i know!) from the house of a south african architect featured in Real Living magazine.

All the cups on display looks so cute!

No coffee machines here but would be the perfect spot!
