2011s Trend Guru: The Wayward Globetrotter

It is the last trembling days of 2010 and our minds are set on the happy new year to come. Trendwise I think the ethnic-eclectic is the most interesting new stylemix. Quite a few recent magazine issues have – in one way or another – refered to the globetrotterish way of decorating. Chicago Home + Garden Magazine (Jan-Feb-11 issue) speaks of the Global Warming trend and Sköna Hem (right pic) celebrates the wayward in their ’2011 Style Compass’: an antiques vs modern boho mix with a cohesive color scheme and a hodgepodge of travel memories, humor and art.

What Would Pippi Do?

Although I like the layout of this room, I have a tangible feel something is missing. Question is: what would you do to this room? How would you furnish and decorate?

I think I would either want it to be a faded glamourous, granny-esque bedroom (with a French headboard of course). Or, and I’m leaning towards this one, I’d have a go with colours. I’d want to make it a cozy attic with an artistic eclectic vibe. Carefree, with lots of warming, overlapping rugs, comfy seating, interesting lamps here and there and a mishmash of things I like. One could always ask oneself what Pippi would do. Ms Longstocking wants you to do things differently. There’s lots of room for that. No rules apply.
