The November 2008 edition of Living etc is all about stylish use of bold colors. It shows houses that break the rules in a good way.
What I enjoy about Living etc is that the houses are realistic. These happy family houses look live in with flair.
The Fritz Hansen Egg chair, designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1958, looks amazing recovered in Trezzini fabric from Designers Guild. This is a chair I wish I could afford for my home office.
The dark blue hallway uses a trick of the trade to make a room look bigger. The door handles and wall switches are painted the same colors of the walls. The key is to achieve a seamless look.
If you are looking for a chaise longue, have a look at 11 daybeds from cool, tailored classics to ultramodern designs before buying anything.
