    Guest Room – Daastan

    Guest room of Daastan - blue and beige walls, TV unit with backlit bookshelves and study table

    The guest room of Daastan is one of my favourite spaces in this gorgeous home. In a home that is bursting with colour, we did colour in this room in a completely different way. I would say this room is saturated

    Our next stop on this home tour is the boy’s room of Daastan. This room belongs to a sweet, eight-year-old boy. Our little boy is fuss-free and had only one request for his room – a world map on the

    Master Bathroom & Walk-In - Daastan

    We walked through the master bedroom of Daastan a couple of weeks back. Remember I said then, that this is the only bedroom in this home with its own walk-in closet area? The master bathroom is also the only one

    Master Bedroom – Daastan

    Master bedroom of Daastan - blue bedroom, twin headboard, study table near bed, blue and white inlay side table

    From the bright and bold foyer and living room, it’s time to move into the quieter and more private areas of this home, the bedrooms. Though these spaces are also full of life and colour, the impact if gentler and

    Entrance and Foyer - Daastan

    ‘Daastan’ means a story or a tale. Why we’re calling this home a story is a story in itself.. which we’ll come to later on. But since we’re comparing homes to stories, if ‘Taru‘ was a tender romance, you could

Before:

• Deep drawers for better organisation of everything from clothes to craft supplies
• Clean white shutters paired with warm wood for a lighter feel
• Playful circular handles that add just the right amount of fun

How do you fit storage, a workspace, and a bit of personality into one wall?
• A custom desk seamlessly integrated into the cabinetry
• Closed storage that keeps everyday clutter out of sight
• Open shelves for books, collectibles, and personal touches
• A gallery wall that makes work feel a little less like work

The best part? Everything has a place, but the room still feels light and uncluttered.

    Interior designer confession: I’ve bought enough o Interior designer confession:
I’ve bought enough of these mini roses to start a very underwhelming flower farm. 🌿

They’ve appeared in living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, TV units, sideboards, shelves, and probably a few places we’ve forgotten about.

Why do we keep reaching for them?

• They add softness without demanding attention
• They work with almost every colour palette
• They look good from every angle
• They never argue with the rest of the styling

You can find a link to them in my Amazon storefront !

That giant blank wall behind the bed... we turned it into a feature.

Before:
• A basic headboard against an empty wall
• Dark furniture and heavy curtains
• Plenty of natural light, but not much character

After:
• A mural inspired by flowering branches that brings softness and depth
• An upholstered headboard that adds comfort and warmth
• Elegant wall lights replacing the need for bulky bedside lamps
• Light, layered fabrics that make the room feel calm and airy

The mural may look delicate, but it does a lot of heavy lifting—setting the mood for the entire room.

A bedroom doesn’t always need more space. Sometimes it just needs a focal point.

Before:
• A plain wall behind the bed
• Standalone furniture pieces with little connection to each other
• The room felt functional, but unfinished

After:
• A soft floral mural that brings the entire room to life
• Integrated wardrobes framing the bed and creating symmetry
• Warm wood textures balanced with gentle greens and blush tones
• A headboard wall that feels layered, calm, and complete

The mural may be the first thing you notice, but it’s the combination of colour, texture, and proportion that transforms the room.

This living room went from dark and heavy to light, warm, and welcoming.

Before:
• Bulky furniture dominating the space
• Dark finishes around the window 
• A monochrome palette 

After:
• A soft tan sofa that instantly brightens the room
• Lighter window treatments that let the space breathe
• Warm wood, layered textiles, and a colourful rug bringing personality underfoot
• A window seat that turns the garden view into part of the room

    Blue is the overachiever of the colour world.💙 It Blue is the overachiever of the colour world.💙

It can be calm in a bedroom, sophisticated in a dining room, dramatic in a bar, and fresh in a kitchen—all without changing its name.

Maybe that’s why we keep coming back to it.

These are our favourite blue spaces. Which one is yours?

From six chairs around a rectangular table to a cosy dining nook built for lingering. The biggest change here wasn’t just the furniture—it was the way the space is used.

Before:
• A conventional dining setup taking up most of the room

After:
• A custom banquette that comfortably seats more people
• A round table that makes conversations flow better
• Soft blush walls that bring warmth to the space
• A flock of brass birds adding a playful touch overhead

The result? A dining corner that feels more like everyone’s favourite seat in the house.
