Go Love Your Room - Colour Me Amazed

I was just flicking through the most recent copy of the Elle Deco UK when I came across this house by Dutch designer Carlos Weeber.

I’m not sure I could exactly live with the colour scheme, but it is so refreshing to see an architect using colour – so many seem to be members of the ‘any colour as long as it’s white’ school.

Funnily enough the architect himself is colour-blind, so he works with an artist friend to put the colours together, and yes, the house is in Curacao, where a bright palette like this will fit in more, but still, I wish others were a bit more brave.

I apologise for the scanned-in quality of the images.  Of course if Elle Deco got its act together and had a website….

Wow. I love, love, love colour so that's just fantastic.

But who on earth puts a pool at the bottom of a flight of stairs?????

That, my dear, is a VERY good question...

That pool is AWESOME. Not sure I could live with that much neon in my life, though! :p
