Room inspiration - modern simplicity...

When style is inherent..one doesn't have to try too hard..It comes naturally and the simplest of things aquire a persona so striking that a room becomes very special. This room, for instance, houses some old furniture mixed with new in a simple and relaxed configuration, yet there is no denying its unique appeal. Old office chairs coverd in blue mohair , combine beautifully with a Madeline Weinrib cotton dhurrie and glass topped coffee table from Mies van der Rohe. Simple bamboo blinds on the windows, an old armoire in a corner and an eclectic mix of art over a second hand industrial console complete the no-fuss British modern look as intended by the homeowner and decorator Stephanie Lees. The bubble pendant light by George Nelson keeps the look fresh and modern...

The art collection on and over the console is inspiring. The dog and lanscape paintings are by Stephanie's late father. On the console rest some pieces by Jonathan Adler, Rosanthal and Klein Reid. The vignette, like rest of the room, is clean, crisp and unpretentious.
