SISJ GUEST BLOGGER > Susi for Arcadian Home

She is, Sarah Jane welcomes guest blogger Susi, from Arcadian Home.
 
Today’s guest post is from Susi, a writer for Arcadian Home, a wonderful online resource for beautiful pendant lighting and home decor of all kinds. Australian design is as varied as the continent country is large.  We've chosen a range of our favourite Australian rooms to show the wealth of design style in the land of Oz. From colorful traditional to minimal contemporary, here are 8 of our favorite Australian rooms right now.

Like the culture of Australia, Australian rooms blend influences from America, Europe, Asia and indigenous styles. Antiques and contemporary styles mix in a relaxed style that favors bold colours and interesting lines.

From the Brisbane shop of Black and Spiro, this living room set up is charmingly quirky and eclectic in its mix of styles, colors and patterns. A pink sofa is hardly a neutral or safe choice.

Another living room from Black and Spiro. The traditional English style sofa is upholstered in a neutral fabric this time, which makes a great backdrop for more adventurous colors, lighting fixtures and wall decor accessories.

Absolutely love the red and blue ikat pattern lampshade in this living room. The colors of the Australian flag are charmingly represented in this cheerful space.

A more subtle, contemporary spin on color and design can be seen in this living room. Mustard yellow and sapphire blue accents offer rich pops of color in an otherwise neutral space. A sleek contemporary floor lamp would add a bit of illumination in the evenings.

Blond woods set the color palette for this contemporary living room. Soft grey as an accent color feel sophisticated against the rest of the pale colours.

More bold colors create a cheerful bedroom. The palette is based off the floral wallpaper but extended to include bolder pops of color, like the cobalt blue lamps. Love the pink & white patterned bedside chest of drawers.

This contemporary living room is all about capitalizing on space.  Love the indoor/outdoor feeling of the space and the simple colours.
