School of Real Living, the Great Rooms and Why They Work by Real Living Magazine

We'd all love to have an innate talent for putting our interiors together, an unmistakeable flair. But for some of us it's not always that easy. So to help us on the decorating journey we have spoken to interior designers and stylists at the top of their game and asked them the hard questions. What makes a room great? How did they pull it together? Why a particular look for a space? What were they thinking? The answers will surprise you. The designers also reveal their failproof colour schemes, to-die-for lighting, perfect chairs, gorgeous fabrics, wallpaper and rugs, all their go-to sources and much more. I personally couldn't wait to get my hands on this info - if I had to pay one of these top guns it would have cost me a fortune but here are their sourcebooks pro bono! When I first read through it, I must admit I was shocked at the cost of some of the items. But I was also blown away by the cool affordable finds. My conclusion? We all need to meet these amazing interior designers and stylists and get to know about their gorgeous, glorious, divine sources. They really help you understand what to look for in terms of quality, and that in turn gives you a sound inspirational starting point - especially when aiming to steal the style.
