Decorex2011

Going to decorex is always a feast for the Interior Designer, and this year was no exception. This is the extravagant entrance going to the show, it says it all!
Rugs, Rugs! Many floor covering were to be seen at Decorex this year, including this funky rug from the Custom Carpet Company (www.customcarpetcompany.co.uk).
The idea is to allow you to create the perfect rug to exactly match your project. I love this!
Kelvin Klein Home, also presented some beautiful rugs. We were not impressed with the impossibility to get a sample to match the colours with our scheme, which is really a shame as Interior Designers need samples to plan ahead the perfect scheme for their client. I hope the head office will change this quickly and answer positively to this request supported byt the sales person that tlked us through the collection.
There were many other rug company, but there isn't enough space to talk about all of them in here.
Lovely and lively colours were also present at Decorex, which is such an invigorating thing, looking at these colours simply make you feel better.
First this uplifting sofa by William Yeoward (www.williamyeoward.com)
And this beautiful Nina Campbell stand
I am not sure my photo makes it justice, but it really was a charming display.
What a lovely chair at Nina Campbel stand.
Another beautiful stand: Anna Barretto (www.anabarrettointeriors.com)

This takes us to the lighting section, which was magnificent. Serip (www.serip.com.pt) displayed absolute beauties. Here again, I had the feeling the Portugal was rising in the Interior Design world.

Going to Decorex is always a good opportunity to fill up our inspiration tanks, to last until next September.
