The living room

I have more inspiration pics on my computer than will fit in this post as every time I see something I like I save it. It has actually been really instructive in defining what I want for the living room, rather than having to identify what exactly I like in a given picture I can see the common themes across all the ones I have saved (not very hard)






Lots of white walls, clean lines, wood floors with only small amounts covered with rugs. (and white eames rockers, i have a slight obsession. it took 6 months to convince The Husband that they were not too funny looking and I now have one. And 99% of the time he can be found sitting in it)

And here is what I have pulled together so far:



The chairs I have already, the couch is also basically the one we have. The main piece which is missing is the sideboard/media stand. This one pictured is from room and board (they have a few that I like), but I haven't given up hope on finding a true vintage one.

The dining area

First the inspiration (i really should have saved these with info about where i got them, but i didnt, so sorry about that...)





And then my take on it:



No bench (husband is strongly against it) but 6 of the chairs (the modernica fiberglass ones, which I think are nicer than the so called official reproductions that are made out of plastic). The dishes are crate and barrel everday, thinking about a set of 12? the wallpaper would be for an accent wall or accent frame.

For the lamp I was thinking of an oversized white drum shade like in some of the pictures, but another option would be a sort of felt version of the capiz pendants you see around. This is my attempt at a sketch. Still thinking about the options here.

The bedroom plan

First a few of the inspiration pictures:





Notice a theme?
Here is what I've put together for the bedroom



A mix of pieces we have already (bedding, alarm clock, picture, nightstands) and ones I want to get (namely the bed). The grey is for the walls. We currently have a tiny tiny bedroom without even space for a small dresser, but I like how simple and cosy it is. As long as the closet in the new place is big enough (and our closet now is nothing near large) I won't bring a dresser in either.
