I love it.

I like that it looks lived in - a beautiful home not necessarily styled within an inch of its life, but still extremely stylish.

I love the warmth of the colours, but which are still light.

I love the colours too and the light fittings. I would have liked to see a little pattern in the fabrics - say just on the cushions would be fine. I also would have liked some more ornaments on the desk behind the sofa. Just a few items that add personality to the room. But I am being picky here - it is the type of room I would feel very comfortable in.

I love the room - it looks so calming Love the chandelier and the French doors The ceiling beams really add character to the room too. But if its my place, I'd probably have a darker coloured sofa even just a tad to add a bit of depth to the colour schemes. Or perhaps darker patterned and ruffled cushions for texture.

I love its casual elegance and the fact it is a lived in home and does not look too styled.

It appears to be a nice room, with nice furnishings, the thing I don't like about the room is there isn't a focal point, it is very distracting. To many lines competing with each other.

Would the beautiful bay window to the right not be a focal point?

Absolutely could be a focal point, just think there are too many things distracting your eye from focusing on that feature.....just an opinion.

Lovely - it looks like a nicely styled house that is actually liveable and lived in.
