Florence Welch’s Bohemian Style

Florence Welch’s Bohemian Style

“It’s like being drunk or on a ship — I think it suits me,” says Florence and the Machine’s Florence Welch of her London home in a recent Vogue interview. A peek inside the fiery powerhouse’s flat in the May issue reveals the space to be a direct extension of her persona: bohemian, ethereal, fierce.


I’ve always admired a fearless approach to decorating — even if I couldn’t live with the look myself on a daily basis. Romantic, whimsical and daring, each room woos its visitors with a grand gesture.




Colourful, bold styling in the living room explores an avian theme, working with complementary colours and original artwork, including a Keith Haring family heirloom.



A gilt sleigh bed in the bedroom covered with a silk brocade coverlet and surrounded by rich tapestries and antiques is straight out of a Gypset dream.



The bathroom — her favourite room in the house — features a wood-panelled tub, glittering mosaic tile and baroque accents.


In honour of Ms. Welch, here are a few other beautiful bohemian spaces I think she’d feel right at home in:


I love the contrast of coral pillows against a sky-blue sofa.


A lively mix of patterns on the sofa and a gallery wall gives this room an ecelctic feel.



Go big or go home! Green damask wallpaper is paired with an array of floral pillows in this bold space.



Gorgeous wood doors with hand-carved filigree lend an exotic edge.



A turquoise bead chandelier and colourful suzani bring this bohemian space to life.

The Coolest Built-In Bunk Beds (and DIY Brass Hardware)

Image
The Coolest Built-In Bunk Beds (and DIY Brass Hardware) Christina is one of my favorite people. She is as kind, talented and gorgeous as the day is long. The last time I was in Arizona, I swung by her new house for a little tour. I’m going to beg her to let me share everything here on LGN when she’s finished (I’ll probably have to arm wrestle the editors at Elle Decor for it – it’s SO good!). In case you haven’t seen these yet, and since we were talking about cool bunk beds the other day, I thought I’d share the built-in bunks Christina did in her triplet sons’ room. So, so cool right? That railing is unreal. One of my favorite parts of the bed is the DIY hardware Christina made by spray painting pipes! I’ve made curtain rods out of pipes before, but never oversize pulls. The brass spray paint takes them to a whole new level. I love how chunky these are. Anything smaller would have been lost on the beds. See what I mean by talent...
