Bring the carnival into your home by adding a big toy like a mechanical helicopter, robots and other big kids items to add some fun and whimsy to your home! Let’s start in the lounge room.

The dining room – the perfect mixture of raw rustic furniture with a vast collection of robots.
A truly eclectic mix of elements in the kitchen, the old and the new weaved together in an atmosphere of fun. Loving the retro cash register on the bench.
A piece of science fiction thrown in the mix with the metal skull of the famous Terminator: a collector’s item that will delight film lovers!
Behind the glass walls is a very original bedroom for the parents. The bed is arranged on a wooden platform under which is a cabin built for kids. The decorating emphasis on red is particularly charming when you read the sign that warns of fire above the bed! In front of the bed is an army of robots.
The parents platform bed becomes a hidden playhouse for the children.
A look inside the playhouse.
A very urban and humorous bathroom composed of industrial valves, metal bowls and aluminium panels.
I am Pandora. A lover of interior design, decorating, homes, gardens and all things stylish!
I have been studying interior design as a side project for a few years on and off and decided to make this blog where I jot down my ideas and inspirations in the hopes that they will help or inspire others.
I am particularly in love with devising new color schemes an will try to add some of that here too.
This home and decorating site is a work in progress for me so come back often to see new ideas!
