If you’ve been following me a long time, you’ll know that much, if not all of the interiors ideas I share are rooted in the hypothetical; “If I had a house, this would be how I’d decorate”, “This is my dream kitchen”, “I’d buy this if I had a house to put it in”. Like many Irish millennials, I’m locked out of the housing market (thanks, Irish government! *eye roll*). And like many Irish millennials, I pay a lot of money to rent a home in Dublin that I share with housemates. My creative control is very limited. I can add some window dressing to my own room, but have to be wary of how much I do to the communal spaces. And the fine-but-not-my-style kitchen cabinetry and furniture is there to stay.

One of my interior design theories is that “If it looked good 100 years ago, it’s likely it will still look good in another hundred”. Classics are classic for a reason. A timeless style is not only something that will age well aesthetically, but a good investment. As they say, “Trends come and go, but style lasts forever.“
