It's probably ridiculous to drool over staircases when you live in a one level house (that you designed) but I would love a beautiful staircase. Maybe next time .....

Hands up who has enough storage - no matter how big the house or how much careful planning goes into storage design you always seem to quickly outgrow what you thought would be waaaay to much storage space. I love some of these quirky storage ideas, particularly the dog bed and wellies cupboard - I wish I'd seen this when we were designing our laundry.

I haven't always been a huge fan of the colour orange but lately it seems to be everywhere and I think I'm starting to like it! Not sure if I would use it in my house but it's lovely to look and imagine.

Chests of drawers are one of my favourite pieces of furniture and I love them in every room. You can never have too many of these wonderful treasures and they're one of the things I'm always searching for!

Ice blue is such a lovely soft colour - it's subtle and elegant; it creates tranquil and relaxing rooms. It's a timeless colour, goes perfectly with white but most of all - it's gorgeous!
