Why This Room Caught My Eye


Traveling is not only good for my mind and soul, it is also good for my blog as I always bring back new inspiration. Last autumn I spent three weeks on the West Coast in the USA and in Canada. My San Francisco stay was very special (I blogged about it HERE and HERE), also because I was honored to be housesitting for one of my favorite bloggers and style icons, Victoria Smith of sfgirlbybay.com

While she was traveling in Europe, I was staying at her modern-bohemian garden house. Her home is an inexhaustible source of interior styling inspiration and even though Victoria has changed and restyled her home ever since, I wanted to share one shot of her living room with you today. Before I tell you what caught my eye in Victoria's living room, I would like to hint you to my first post on the new interior blog 'Roombeez' where I am a regular contributor - I am sharing some more shots of Victoria's home there. 

So what caught my eye here?
  • Black Leather Sofa: Even though I am not a leather sofa fan in general, this one seems to be the one and only choice you can put in this setting. The fantastic black leather sofa is a sort of visual anchor in this room as it sets off itself with its black glossy surface and the button back.
  • Shelving Unit: The other furniture piece I've been craving ever since I stayed at Victoria's place is her wooden shelving unit. It was custom-made for her garden home and is a perfect solution for maximum storage while serving as a styling stage as well. 
  • Patterned Rug: The patterned shag rug adds a great dose of pattern and texture to the living room and ties the black and neutral colour scheme perfectly together. Plus it is super soft to walk on it - trust me, I tested it!
Is Victoria's living room catching your eye too?
