Elegant Canopy Bed by Joseph Walsh - amazing Enignum

Sweet dreams indeed! This amazingly elegant canopy bed by Joseph Walsh is an art piece in itself. The Enignum Canopy Bed from Walsh’s Formations collection brings nature indoors, both in its material and in the way it “moves.” The bed’s unconventional silhouette wraps its way into the air in fluid, flowing forms – not an easy feat to accomplish with wood. But incredibly, this self-taught Irish-born designer-cum-artist does it beautifully. Ash wood is cut in thin layers and then shaped using its natural elasticity. Organza is then draped romantically over this elegant yet organic frame. Each bed is a one-of-a-kind piece – a true work of art. For more information visit Joseph Walsh.

Decorating is all about the right details and elements. Therefore, here are few tips how to decorate your home in trend and with style.

The recent tendencies include the so called mod-mocha trend. The trend is inspired by the chocolate, but this time not as a food but just as a luxury item.

Chocolate and mocha are the right colors for a lavish home décor. In case your home is small, just add furniture in chocolate palette.

It is creating an atmosphere of intimacy in the home interior.

Another good item to consider is the good old rug. Choose a retro-styled rug and make sure it contains geometrical elements, for they are super modern in the contemporary design.

The so called Optic rug by Rug Marketâ??s Mod Squad collection is the right accent for you, in case you have a large living room.

The dark palette and the geometrical details turn the rug into a magical accessory and change the usual style of a living room.

A night lamp is a small detail in a room, but it can change the entire ambience. The professionals are advising you to choose the smooth and sleek style of the Arteriors Home lamps.

Their latest collection is all about glamorous table lamps in black and brown. In case you need just a small décor change, change your seat.

The new Espresso Seat velour-soft chair is the perfect furniture for small spaces and areas that need trendy touch.

Change the interior with coffee-colored chair and add small pillow made out of brown satin. This will turn your room into a neat and charm relaxing oasis. Pastel colors are also very good, when it comes to accessories.

Go for mini-pillows in pastel color as the recent tendency is all about pastel pink and purple. It can be combined with the chocolate-colored furniture, so donâ??t hesitate to experiment by mixing pastel colors and dark items.

The Roomy Home Interiors is the brand that is releasing an amazing collection of table accessories. You can choose gold- colored items such as lamps, table vases and even artificial fruits with golden and silver cover.

The experts are advising you to consider the paintings on the wall as an important part of your home décor, especially if your home is in contemporary style.

Therefore, go for modern paintings that include geometrical and floral elements. Brown, golden and light purple are the right colors, when it comes to essential accessories this season.
