IQAmsterdam's Profile

Maxwell, I’d be delighted to oblige.

Growing up in a bedroom covered in “”Japanese Bamboo” wallpaper, Ms Broadhurst can be held singlehandedly responsible for my obsession with all things Asian, my grand passion for design and colour (fuscia! turquoise! lime green! heavenly yellow!) , and my appreciation for the cheeky, curious streak that we “Aussie girls” all seem to share. Ms Broadhurst can lay claim to being one of a handful of women who inspired me to travel and work Asia (Japan, Cambodia, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Indonesia), which has resulted in my highly developed sense of aesthetics, a keen eye for design and active support for a number of artists and designers working in Asia and Europe.

My passion for design, coupled with an inate understanding of what it means to be an Australian, a MA in women’s studies and of course an obsession with AT ;) ….. who better to write a short, pithy and eloquent review than this Aussie gal?

(Oh, did I mention the my recent attendance at a speed reading course? ;)

the wall colour is fantastic...now for the rest of the room;

- paint the chairs a high gloss berry
- recover the chairs in a designers guild fabric (something with flecks of the wall colour)
- hang black black and white framed photos in a guilded gold frame on one wall & art of your choice on the other
- ditch the rug

or, if that's not you...something more like this perhaps?

good luck, you're off to a flying (and very impressive) start!

I'm sorry, but this looks to me like another place with all the design classics...the lamp, the bookshelf etc and no soul. Where is the human element?

I can understand you were excited to come across such lovely homes, however, a shame that you didn't exercise better judgement and decide NOT to post them. I live in Amsterdam, Holland and have a tourists peeking in my home on a daily basis. This is not a form of flattery, it's an invasion of privacy.

high gloss deep pink with designers guild fabric (designersguild.co.uk) would look AMAZING with this set. I say go for it!

if that's a bit much for you, have a look at this option from SJP's home in the Hamptons...
