Understated vs. Overstated Rooms

I love the clean simplicity of a Swedish home, yet in my own home I tend to collect things from dishes to mercury glass that has filled every corner, table and floor space available. Though I love the look of an understated home I tend to the overstated....lots of stuff! I want to live with many things around me that make me happy and I just think in an understated home....what would I look at...what would I move around....what would I collect? Pretty impossible but my admiration for those people that can edit their home, to show off all the details of each carefully picked item, knows no bounds! Here are a few examples of under and overstated rooms. What do you like?

Sophisticated & Contemporary Space

This timeless and contemporary space has been designed by Sydney architect Tania Handelsmann. Featured this month in Est Magazine, her gorgeous esthetic is on display in this simple grey, white and wood (which you know is one of my favourite combos) home. Love the simplicity of this space with the palest of colour everywhere and the smallest hint of pale blue and smoky purple. The kitchen is the space I like the best though...she keeps it very minimal but not cold with warm wood and modern accessories...Check out these other homes from Est..Here and here...

 

Enjoy!
