December 7, 2015

If you enjoy living life on the wilder side, here are some ideas that will definitely help to spice things up at home, interior design wise. Your home’s the perfect place to let loose and go wild, so what are you waiting for?

1. Have you ever loved shipping containers so much that you wanted one in your home? The homeowners of this Cityscape apartment must be fascinated by them, and managed to creatively incorporate the façade of a shipping container right in their living room. The rest of the apartment possesses several unique looks, keeping things wondrously fresh and surprising.

2. Too many recipes to try, and too many ingredients to buy? Well, a giant chalkboard wall strategically located in the kitchen makes your mad chef ambitions much easier to achieve. We also love the little platform with stairs that are actually cupboards in disguise. It’s the perfect place to drift away with a good book.

3. What happens when you incorporate the feel of a rustic, wooden cabin into a modern-day apartment? You’ll have something that looks like this, with plenty of wooden elements that border on gritty rawness. The amazing thing is it will definitely make you feel like you are living in an installation art piece that pays homage to Mother Nature.

4. This apartment’s muted industrial palette is easy on the eyes, but never looks dull because of the interesting wood grain textures and assemblage of different sized crates which double up as storage space. The dining area looks simply magical, with a delicate cloud of paper flowers suspended above the dining table.

5. We know what the homeowners’ favourite colours are they are unapologetically all over the house. The entire home is well-lit, which makes it even better for the bright orange shades to stand out. It is also a home that the kiddos will love as they are enraptured by anything cheery and colourful.

6. Take cues from the ultra-cool home of a biker-cum-rocker enthusiast. Get bowled over by the kickass collection display solutions (spot the cool guitars, helmets and Vodka collections yet?) in this new BTO. This home knows the way to your heart. It is modern, funky, and has just enough of that rebellious attitude to keep you young at heart.
