My House



I love seeing how personal style translates to the home. It's completely fascinating (and a little voyeuristic) to see the things people choose to surround themselves with. I find that my environment has a huge effect on me, my mood, my creativity, so I'm very particular about how my home looks and feels. I love my space to be filled with a mixture of old of new, serious and tongue-and-cheek pieces. There should always be something a little unexpected in the mix. So here is a sneaky peek at where I live.....

















The blue painting is by my sister, it helps to have an artist in the family.
Floor to ceiling windows for perfect soft light.
A well stocked bar and plenty of room at the dining table for entertaining.
Records and a turntable, lots of magazines and a reading nook.
A nod the southwest with cacti, native rugs and a cow skull. Oh, and a nod to my homeland with a rather ironic painting of the queen and a few union jacks.

  8. I was awestruck by the interior design of your house, Celine. But the feature that really caught my attention most was the huge mural above the cabinet. Where did you buy that mural? It surely is artistic. It must be Bruce Wayne's. LOL

    1. It sure looks artistic, Louie. Bruce Wayne must have given it to Celine in exchange for a date. LOL Anyway, I'm more interested on the murals, especially the one with gold squares, it looks expensive. May I ask how much was it, Celine?
