Take A Look Inside Kendall Jenner’s $6.5 Million Hollywood Home
It's a proud moment for any youngster to battle their way
onto the property ladder. You may have a two bed terrace with rising damp and
slight subsidence but it's finally your own little nest. And plucky Kendall Jenner has now pulled herself up by the
boot straps and got her own little pad (her second, actually), after saving up
a reported £4.8m ($6.5m). And as far as damp, it has its own private swimming
pool. According to TMZ, the model bought the pad from John
Krasinski and Emily Blunt and it's situated in Hollywood, naturally. The 20-year-old model splashed out on the stunning property,
which features six bedrooms and five bathrooms. And this is actually Kendall's second property after she
bought a two-bedroom condo in 2014 for $1.39 million. According to TMZ, the younger sister of Kim Kardashian paid
$450,000 below the original asking price for the 4,800-square-foot
contemporary-style home. It is situated on the Sunset Strip, above the Chateau
Marmont Hotel and has panoramic views. With wood floors, exposed brick and walk-in wardrobes
Kendall doesn't even need to spend all weekend shopping for wallpaper and
building Ikea cupboards. http://www.mirror.co.uk/

5 Tips on Mixing Prints in Interiors
1) Set small patterns against large ones, limit your palette
and include one solid piece.
2) Pick a color theme, look for variations in pattern,
balance large scale with an allover print, solids in theme colors anchor the
look.
3) Find one item that is multicolored and pair them with
other pieces that pick up the colors of that scheme. Keep furniture pieces
basic and solid to act as a canvas.
4) If you limit your palette to a couple of vibrant hues and
play them off of a neutral background, a playful mix of prints looks cohesive while
effectively moving your eye around the space.
5) A monochromatic palette against a neutral background
makes it impossible to mess up.

The many advantages of Bamboo flooring
A bamboo plant is what is manufactured to create the
material used for flooring. The product largely comes from China. Other parts
of Asia also manufacture bamboo flooring products.
Even though the bamboo flooring is easy to maintain, it has
to be protected from scratches. Since it also fades after a long time choose a
lacquered floor finish to keep it looking new. This type of flooring makes for
an elegant surface leaving an impression on the house.
As a result bamboo flooring is becoming a popular
alternative to hardwood flooring. There are various reasons why bamboo flooring
is preferred.

As a raw product, the bamboo is strong even compared to
hardwood which is used on the floors. This is because the bamboo tree takes six
years to mature thus its strength which can even match that of the maple tree.

flooring option for the home.

Bachelor Pad Design Ideas
Bachelor pads have a reputation
of being either extremely stark or on the mismatched messy side, so we
have put together this bag of tricks to help refine the man den.
The home entertainment zone is ever present in a bachelor pad, so get it
right with enough stylish storage to house all your gadgets, and always
hide away ugly wiring. If you’re not a collector of knickknacks,
textured wall panels add personality to a living space, though do try to
break up collections of books with some softer forms to create a more
visually pleasing shelf display. Plenty of shelving for music and
magazines keeps the place tidy and organized, and smart storage hides
away junk in a flash, choose furniture of just a few shades for a pulled
together cohesive look.

Living Room Interior design
I love interior decors of houses and if i had my way I would stare at the pictures till eternity. In another lifetime I would have studied to become an interior designer but still that passion is still in me. I'm almost obsessive compulsive when it comes to organisation, I love it when things are in their proper place and i can easily find them. I literally throw a fit when i see things scattered everywhere looking like a tornado just passed through.
I love beautiful houses and I even have a picture of how my house would look like...that reminds me I wanted to be an architect too but me and calculations were born in different universes.
Today I will feature Red and White Living Room Designs since it's the Valentines month...everything red and all from http://www.interiorarcade.com/
Be inspired to create your own personal space that is beautiful, magnificent and calming for those long tiring days
