asian inspiration

So much time has passed... my apologies... So back into it!

I have been going through a lot of display homes - we are almost at the stage of making our all important home choices!! How exciting!

Along the way I have been picking up some asian inspiration. It is so beautiful. I love the simplicity of design.

 

OMG I am loving the interior doors with the frosted glass! I have also seen some amazing ones that slide. I like that it has a modern asian feel.

Was unfortunately a little low for me and not too comfortable  :(

Look lovely but the way that they are sewn, it leaves a lip hamging on the other side which would be a major dust catcher!! :(

Walking through Westfield Bondi Junction, I cam across a hairdresser with a fabulous screen. Instead of your standard glass, they have layers upon layers of recycled timber. It is quite smooth to touch and although acting as a screen, allows you to see through.

This made me think - what a great and potentially inexpensive addition to your home. It was quite thin, so it wouldn't take up too much space. You could screen off one area of a room from another - it would work great in an industrial style apartment. Recycled timber means that you could get it fairly inexpensive and I think with the right know-how anyone could put it together safely. What do you think?
