this is too good.

Love this space I saw on design*sponge today. So much to look at! Here are my favourite parts:

Built in shelves, great area rug, patterned chairs in the middle of the room! (not all furniture must line the walls..)

Framed peg board!! (sooooo good.) Cute colour scheme. Natural wood accents.

Bold wallpaper. Simple desk as a side table. Wicker head board. Fur throw at the end of the bed!?

It's not my neutral of choice - I much prefer greys or whites. Add a cool colour on top and I'm happy. More than one cool colour is even better (like the balloons).
