Sneaking In Some Room Goodness

How have you been, my wonderful kittens? I am missing you and the blog sorely. And while the tech team works furiously behind the scenes to give this site a facelift, I am sneaking in one gorgeous post full of room goodness, for you and for me. 

I love this feeling of nesting and repose that sets in as autumn turns to winter. While the early morning and late evening nip in the air draws me to rich hued, cozy rooms, the bright afternoon sun veers me towards sunlit, (relatively) minimal rooms.

I will be away from the blog for a couple of weeks now, but do remember, I post daily on Instagram! Follow me there and I will be back soon on the blog, with many new exciting features and a fancy pancy new website!

See you on Instagram and Facebook!

Hello!

Is it me you are looking for?

When I was invited by Isprava to view their lovely villas in Goa

Sorry for being AWOL for the last few weeks. I have a very good reason for it though. There are some good folks working behind the scenes to get a fabulous new website ready for An Indian Summer. I have been neck deep in layouts and mock-ups and have been advised not to put any new content on this site till the time the new one is ready to roll. We are aiming for mid next month and till that time, I will continue to share fresh inspiration and all that I love, on Instagram and Facebook. The images in this post are from my Instagram account, so if you like them, please do follow @AnIndianSummer there! And that's not all. Beginning tomorrow, in a run up for Diwali, Facebook is where the action will be when it comes to inspiration for the festival of lights. You don't want to miss that, my lovelies!

Habaraduwa House

Ah, the villas and B&B's of Srilanka! I can spend an entire day couch surfing through them. One such couch surfing trip threw up Habaraduwa House and I fell in love with it's pristine interiors and colonial vibe. The simple yet eye catching furnishing, distressed white washed wooden ceilings, cozy couches and an open 'breathing' space is what makes it stand out for me. Here are some of my favorite images from Habaraduwa ~

Oh, Happy September!

Himma.io

I know it's cliched, but please, do allow me to exclaim at least once. It's September! Already! There, I had to get it out of my system. It is indeed the ninth month of the year and so far, it has been a super month. There has been incoming goodness in form of people, places, work and of course, the sea and the rain. And to add to the general happiness, GoodHomes magazine recently announced 'The Design Power List' and I am on it! This inspirational list of luminaries from the design industry has inspired my post today. A selection of powerfully evocative rooms. Rooms that exude character and depth. Rooms that aren't afraid to be bold. Also, rooms with a September-October sort of a vibe, getting ready for autumn. Such, is the collection today.
