Zara Home Inspiration in White
I wrote about Zara Home this time last year, and despite how it pains me that their home stores aren't in the states (yet), I'm thrilled to at least catch a glimpse of their catalog online because the images are gorgeous and packed with styling ideas. Plus, there's a lot of things I see that resemble pieces that I can find here in the states from stores and flea markets, so it's just a matter of pulling everything together to create the relaxed, soft look that is Zara Home. It's a little bit of the Beachy Keen and the Nurturing Naturalist combined, don't you think? And Miss Victoria from SFGirlbyBay was right, white is too a color!
Lots of antlers, texture, shells, bird cages, painted wood floors (white-washed), white furnishings, hints of blue, white in many shades keeping the look warm vs. cool, ceramics, driftwood, flea market finds, it's all gorgeous, isn't it? Click on any of these images to enlarge...
This is my favorite room (below), I love everything about it. It actually reminds me of this living room in Linda Gregoriou's home from Australian Vogue magazine. I love how they filled the fireplace with books, and this gorgeous cut out rug...
This kitchen feels so Scandinavian to me, it looks so clean and warm, which is sometimes hard to accomplish with an all white palette because too often it can read as sterile and cold.
What a gorgeous entry, it almost looks like the railing is an ornate wrought iron. Don't we all dream of a balcony or patio like this?
