After putting up the pictures of the beautiful Spanish-style home for {exteriors} post of Kathryn Ireland, Mrs. French from Bliss commented on what the interior must be like.
{While we are on the subject, can we just take a moment and acknowledge that I just said Mrs. FRENCH. I know. *sigh*...could that be MY name? Hmm. Mrs. Murphy-French...Mrs. French-Murphy. No. It doesn't work, but I'm fine with that, cause I love my name. I'll just be a French Mrs. Murphy!! lol. Ok, moving on...}
I realized that perhaps some people may not be familiar with this house tour...so, thought I'd post the interior shots! This home was designed by architect Austen Pierpoint; however {I believe} the inteterior was done by Kathryn herself. Hmm. I may be wrong, and honestly haven't done the appropriate research. However, I'm pretty sure.
Though this isn't my personal style of interior, I think it looks JUST LIKE Kathyrn's work {as she does textiles and design}. Oh, duh - it MUST have been decorated by her. Well, either way here you go!
If you're an advid House Beautiful reader, then you will have recognized these shots from the March issue {and therefore this is a "revisit"}; otherwise, enjoy the unique aspects of this home.
It's already Wednesday? Man, I love short weeks!
ahaha...you can be Mrs French if I can be Mrs Ireland!
ReplyDeleteWhat WONDERFUL fire places! I think this is what I miss most of my family homes. I keep thinking about getting one of those fake corner ones? Probably not the same effect. All those rooms are great.
ReplyDeleteI am fainting...It's gorgeous! That's it...I officially want to move in...no need to camp out in the beautiful yard I love the inside just as much...sigh...
ReplyDeletep.s.
can you believe I used to hate my name? when I married Mr. French, I thought it sounded a bit sleezy (not by itself, but with my first name "Traci French")...I now embrace it...glad you like it!
Yeah, so you're definitely a kindred spirit :) Not only do I love House Beautiful, no matter which issue, but you happen to pick some of my all time favorite images from their issues. I would love to decorate my house like this! There's something so appealing and so chic if start with white wall and then add splashes of color :) YUM! Always satisfies!
ReplyDeleteI love it, especially the top room with the little alcove, the bedroom and the bathroom. I like the use of pattern and bright colours in these interiors.
