I din't really notice until I uploaded all my images from Interiors UK 2013, but the general gist of the lighting I loved was most definitely moody, brooding and mysterious. They're all by exciting and talented independent designers - beautifully crafted and unusually designed, often using ethically sourced materials. Enjoy 🙂 Yes, yes, I know this Plumen...

Sunday Summary: Plans, pancakes, a princess & a propeller
Little wonder I fell fast asleep on the sofa for an hour this afternoon, what a week!! Glorious weather meant we were inspired to start the last of the tenants' gardens, a dullsville space with two overgrown weed beds and a very tatty path. I drew up a plan of how I wanted it to...

An evening’s stay at the luxury Blythswood Square, Glasgow
Any excuse for a trip to Scotland! I was given an option for a meeting in London or one up in Glasgow this week and felt we'd ticked off the M6 south by travelling down to Interiors UK in Birmingham, so Team Moregeous headed north for a couple of days. It's been a hectic start... Continue Reading →

Good job it's... Continue Reading →

I knew this of course, but other... Continue Reading →
The Moregeous garden slate fest continues
I blogged about this sorry looking front garden above a couple of weeks ago, whilst we were re-tiling the front path after a crap job when I first bought it 4yrs ago. Weeks of intermittent rain and shine this summer, plus decades of previous neglect meant a spaghetti junction of roots under the soil which constantly... Continue Reading →
Finished timber shelves up on the tenants’ resurrected terrace
How can anyone not love the knots, grain and perfect imperfections of real wood, it just knocks laminate or any fake replacements into a cocked hat everytime. Of course, it's not practical for every job and can be cost prohibitive on large pieces of furniture, especially in the rental market, but it's such a delight... Continue Reading →
