Abigail Ahern

Interior design, and exterior for that matter is an area I am very much interested in, probably because my mum and I watch all the house programs whether its building them or just redecorating, we read the magazines and I dream of my victorian terrace and the ways I will furnish it. I love mixing the old and new together, I think they make a happy contrast (if you get the balance right) and it also means comfortable living, nothing to sterile but not chintzy either.

While looking through some old magazines I stumbled across Atelier Abigail Ahern, http://www.atelierabigailahern.com/. After admiring the decor of this one house I realised that the pieces in her house what she had actually designed herself, so I hopped on the net to check out some prices and more pieces. One of this things I thought would look fabulous in this huge chandelier (going on the basis of the high ceilings in my dream Victorian Terrace) either a focal piece in the bathroom or kitchen/snug area, it brings glam using the wire and taking the original essence of a chandelier but not necessarily the elegance normally associated with them. Also it's just a snippet at £2,555... (Neo-Baroque Chandelier) I'll start saving now, along with a deposit for the actual house.


The site is definitely worth a look, some quirky and original pieces that will undoubtedly enhance any interior.
