    For the walls: bright + bold

    Especially after the beautiful kilim rug from Joost's dining room yesterday, I've been thinking that the perfect remedy for grey autumn skies may be a warm, brightly coloured home. I can never resist all white, but I can't deny that there's just something so happy and energetic about a colourful space. Vibrant, happy art may just be the perfect way to incorporate colours into your decor for those who are a little afraid of a big commitment to a strong colour.

    An airy loft looks warm and inviting with colourful art and warm wood. This rich-hued, rustic dining table just seems to invite long dinners with delicious food, friends and wine.
    >Sara Story is never one to shy away from colour, this bold crimson headboard in her bedroom, paired with this bright bold art, brings it to life and adds an extra 'pop'.

    I couldn't agree more, warm colors are a definite cure to cloudy skies. I like the painting too. Is it me, or does the woman look like Julia Roberts? Lol
