How do you feel about a kitchen that has everything and a little extra? Even though the supply for kitchen bars is growing these days, there are not many those who think of having such an addition to their kitchen. Classic interiors, with kitchen elements gathered up on one wall and a table in the middle has become so popular, that we often see examples where creativity is regarded as a negative factor. We think a kitchen bar ads a touch of originality and breaks the dullness of a design. This is why in the pictures below you will see a collection of cool bar ideas which manage to improve the decors they are integrated in. From vivid colors and fresh patterns to more classic ideas, the bars are aesthetic but also functional. Check them out!-via Delikatissen|Freshome

Gautier is a design company founded in 1958. We found some really nice bedroom arrangements on their site which we hope will give you fresh decorating ideas. Most of them are simple, sober and elegant, with wooden furniture and stylish carpets to go with it. The color mix goes from mild to fresh, but the overall effect is always pleasing. You will rarely see strong colors – the green and red pillows are an exception, but with a lovely effect.  Flowers and paintings make the interiors lively and also help personalizing every room. Small details and decorative items such as bottles and tea cups really manage to make a difference. We also like the floor lamps and the night stands.  Enjoy! via

When looking at modern houses lately, I couldn’t help but notice curtains are no longer a point of interest. Their place was taken by the contemporary blinds, which are a lot easier to take care of and manage. However, you have to agree with us on the fact that curtains give a special feel to a room and in those homes they do exist, they bring wonders in matters of overall interior design. they have the ability of completely changing the way a room looks and also bring elegance to any space. To us, they still remain a great decorative item and a pretty convenient one as well. We put up together a few such examples. We hope you will let yourself be inspired and remember the old days when curtain ruled the world of indoor arrangements.

If you happen to be a fan of modern Italian interior design, then you certainly heard of Alf Da Fre, an important brand in the field. Today we decided to show some of their ideas on minimalist and contemporary home arrangements. These particular pictures are of 10 different living-rooms, all having a well determined personality. We enjoy the use of colors that stand out in some of the interiors, however remaining subtle.  You will also notice some ideas in black and white, and we are happy to share them with you. Some details are worth mentioning, such as the pillows meant for seating, the original lamps and of course a lot of decorating items that can easily attract one’s attention. Which one do you prefer?
