The green wall by the staircase is gorgeous and I really like the outdoor space.

Re: ALABAMIAN CREATES A HOME IN ENGLAND

While I'm not unsympathetic to the dictum, "less is more",  I think Ambrice Miller's rooms are classically and squarely within the English country house aesthetic.  Within her particular genre, in my opinion, she's done a great job.

 

Interestingly, we all have different tolerances for the amount of visual stimulation-- number of objects, patterns, etc. around us. 

 

I personally like having a fair bit less than the typical English country house does.   But, within that look, I love someone who pulls it off well.   You can just tell that her knowledgeable embrace of art and antiques is a source of daily joy for her.

She has a very good eye for what she likes, and puts it together beautifully. I do think if some of the more oversized things, like the LR blue and white jars were moved to a larger space, they would stand out better.

Re: ALABAMIAN CREATES A HOME IN ENGLAND

All of the pictures are beautiful. I saw one pic that brought back a memory of something my BFF told me. She had bookcases in her kitchen. She decided to give the bookcases a good cleaning. When she took out the books she said they were all greasy. Yuk. When I saw the couch in the kitchen of one pic, I loved it. Then the story I just told you came to mind. I hope that couch is slip covered 'cause she probably will have to send them out to be washed/cleaned pretty often. (I still love the concept, lol) Good job as usual, @Oznell
