GUEST BLOG: from DESIGN SHUFFLE

Hi, all, I’m Susi, a writer for Design Shuffle, a community where interior designers, home enthusiasts, and other design professionals showcase their design projects, share inspirations, and network. My writing focuses on interior design, home furnishings, gardening and travel. Like most of us, I’m more of an armchair traveler so I was thrilled to be asked by From London with Love to write about British Interiors and decorating ideas. Being a huge Anglophile, I am in love with British interiors; there is just something so innately stylish about them. Cheers!

Love the postage stamp inspired fuchsia poster of the Queen in this contemporary space. Pink, blue and white are a twist on the classic red, white and blue of the Union Jack. Perfect for an Anglophile.

This crown wallpaper is a contemporary tongue-in-cheek nod to the British Royalty. It would look amazing in a powder room or bedroom.
Antique Decor

Another play on a British classic, the “Keep Calm and Carry On” poster that has become a style icon. Love the dark teal walls and the mix of antiques and vintage pieces.
Antique British Interior
Gallery Me via
This charming boys' bedroom is filled with British charm and bedroom design ideas. The antique chest of drawers between the twin beds acts as a nightstand for both. Love the mix of vintage inspired linens, patterned grey area rug and a wall of vintage prints.
British Library Decor

What could be more British than the Wren Library of Trinity College at Cambridge? Classical lines, marble bust, deep wood bookcases, black and white checkerboard floors—these would make for a great dining room or library or even home office.
English Living Room

This classic English living room is a riot of patterns in subdued tones. Love the glossy black ceiling that gives the room a cozy feeling. Antiques and art lend an aristocratic air to the room.
British Interior
House and Home via
British interiors span the gamut from contemporary to proper traditional. One of the most beloved British interiors is the English country cottage. Traditional yet comfortable, the roll arm sofa is a classic for any British interior.
British Living Room

An example of British Colonial style, this living room mixes traditional furniture styles with exotic textiles and rugs. Love the botanic prints of birds on the wall. This space is filled to overflowing with ideas for living room designs.
