Blue, Green, and Gold

Cool colours have always been my favourites. I love the calming effect of cool hues. 

Blue, green, and gold recall the allure of nature... turquoise oceans, deep green forests, golden sunlight....

I've been thinking about doing the living-dining room of our new house in this colour scheme. I'm inspired by the views of beautiful green hills and blue sky seen from this room. I found so many gorgeous images for inspiration, for this colour scheme, I just had to share some of them with you.

Magical Metallics

It's amazing the magic a little metal can create... 

A glimmer of gold... Framing a view... Lines like drawings structuring a room... Shimmering patterns upon a wall... 

The possibilities are endless.

blush & gold

Always so beautiful... blush pink and gold.

dreamy details

I'm smitten by this dreamy, romantic space, with its pale colours, gold accents, and charming details.

Have a beautiful weekend, everyone!

The Royal Mansour Hotel, Marrakech

On this sultry summer evening, I'm daydreaming of escaping to the Royal Mansour Hotel in Marrakech, Morocco. I'd love to drift through the beautifully tiled passageways, dip my fingers in the cool fountains, lie under the shade of the palms, listen to jazz in the lounge, relax in an elegant riad, and lazily glide through the pool's aqua waters of this gorgeous hotel. The hotel's cozy terraces, with their stunning views of the Koutoubia Moaque and Atlas Mountains, must be so relaxing. I could spend days gazing upon the exquisite archways, tiles, and various other detailed ornamentation, created over the course of four years by over 1500 Moroccan artisans. What a heavenly escape...
