Outdoor visions

Please can I come stay here and chill beside the pool - cocktail in hand would be even better! Now that we're in full on Spring/Summer mode and waking up a whole hour earlier than we did last Saturday we can officially sit outside and enjoy having brekkie on the balcony/terrace/porch... I'm always one for admiring beautiful outdoor space, there are plenty in Greece as we're dominated by the sun for the majority of the year.
I just wish i had a really gorgeous space (and pool) like the image above which was designed by interior designer Kristen Hutchins. I'm also a sucker for colour and vibrancy, hence the image below... What's your outdoor living style and what plans have you got for creating an outdoor chill out space? With the Sahara winds gone, the need for a full on spring clean on our terrace is on. Dust, dirt and neglected plants...

I'm loving all of these images, especially the oversized French clock above and you can never really go wrong with monochrome either. The touch of burnt orange is also v cool, however I'd have gone more accent tones of pink or turquoise!

Outdoor living: stylish design we love

Our current obssession lies within all things outdoor, so when we came across Paul Joseph Hopper (amazing and talented Interior designer) blog and his high recommendation of Patricia Urquiola's work, we just had to see what all the fuss was about. Well, all we can say here is 'stunning'! This is what stylish outdoor living is about.

Below are just a few more lustworthy bits of stylish out door living images we love.
