Stylist Barbara Groen
Dutch stylist Barbara Groen has been on my radar for well over a year now since I first fell in love with her work in VTWonen magazine when she styled a story about diverse work spaces. I’ll quickly show a quick glimpse below — I fell in love with these three magical spaces instantly.
After finding her work, I’ve been following her ever since. Here are some more views from the portfolio of this talented stylist. To see many, many more you’ll need to visit her online portfolio here.
Yeah, that is some SERIOUS inspiration overload. I love how she uses color and generally sticks to three colors in each of her stories – maybe it’s just a coincidence but it seems to be her recipe. I also admire how creative she is – I found so many fun decorating ideas simply from studying the images above. She also loves to use paint and doesn’t have any problem putting very bold colors on cabinets, inside and out – love it! Her use of pattern is minimal, she relies more on objects, color and displays to tell her story. I like many of her wall arrangements and how she uses tear sheets as decorative elements. What an inspiring person Barbara is!

Oh really wonderful and I adore a limited color palette! The yellows and blues are perfect. Those yummies on the plate look delish as well!

Oh I love her wall decoration (how cute is that laughing hippo on the wall???)! And her use of colour is great… How lovely the bright yellow looks in these interiors.
Love it!

Such gorgeous images! I love how she manages to blend modern with traditional looks so seamlessly. It’s a delicate balance that I admit I’m still figuring out for myself. Thanks for sharing!

Some great ideas about colour and where to apply it (and where not). I especially love the grey felt box in the first photo! Wish I knew where to get it :)

I love the use of green, blue and grey in muted shades. Such a peaceful colour combination. Thanks!
