    Classic, elegant


    The London townhouse of Veere Grenney is a beautiful blend of classical architectural details - echoed in the traditional and often ornate furniture, and balanced with modern art and natural, rustic touches through the jute rugs and woven grass baskets. Soft muted tones take away some of the austerity of the space. I'd love to add some of these touches in our new space - neutral tones and black and white art framed in elegant gold. Natural jute rugs throughout.
    Classic, elegant.

    Very much agreed - I find it a little formal for my everyday life but I think it would be beautiful to stay in.

    All beautiful! And I love the white art piece above the Art Deco side table in the last image. Remember that I mentioned that one - when I show you a similar piece in my own home (coming up in a few weeks).

    Happy weekend to you dear Sharalee.

    I love that, in the middle photos, you can peer into the other rooms. It's like a doll-house...
