The Quirky 2012

Posted on 2012/01/02 by Mia in Art & Illustrations, eclectic, other decor themes, Sofas

Yay, that’s what I wish for in 2012 home interiors. More quirkiness! Unexpected twists, peculiar objects and jawdropping combinations. Here’s some pics from the The Selby, featuring the São Paulo home of Fashion Designer Alexandre Herchcovitch.

How about having a scenery like that behind the sofa? Gorgeousness. Love the weird anatomy doll as well. And actually all of it, the overall colour scheme is magnificent. Next: Madly nice sofa & cushions.

And lastly, words are superfluous. Great vibe – eclectic at its best.

    I just saw this home over on Selby’s website and was quite intrigued. I think it’s just a touch over the top for me personally, but I do love how bold the homeowner is. It’s funny, I’m exposed to such fantastic and at times crazy design, while most people I interact with really limit themselves. My boyfriend’s grandma leafed through my copy of “Design*Sponge at Home” and told me that she thought a lot of it was ugly and commented on how weird it was that someone nailed a tree branch to a wall. Oh if she only knew the quirkiness that exists! A tree branch on a wall is nothing, haha. I hope quirky design like this continues to gain ground and find ways to please folks of varying tastes because it really is so much fun!

    I know exactly what you mean! What I find intriguing and fun – and groundbreaking in interior design – many people find just ugly and weird. Pretty and “normal” is their ideal.  I guess it’s a matter of how interested you are in decor/design, and how much you’ve plowed through!

    Lovely to hear from you, Christina!
