Which Do You Prefer?

Marie Claire Maison poses this question:
Would you rather have a feminine but minimalist salon?


The salon of a voyager?


Or one filled with mismatched pillows and chairs?


It's hard to choose! I definitely love the first one, so clean and chic. But the third one seems warmer....Which would you pick?

Hope you're having a nice weekend!

    I really like the dark, rich colors of the Voyager photo, but I know I'm more of a mismatched missy in that I tend to collect oddball things. I love comparison photos like these of interiors. You can really tell a lot about a person by the way they fashion their home.

    Ooh that is HARD. But either the first one or third one I think. In reality I am more likely to have the first one! xx

    Although they are beautiful, I like the 1st room best. I love the simplicity of it, even with all the puchy colors it is still serene.

    Ooooooh, three lovely rooms. I am always aiming for number 1, but I am way too much of a hoarder, so it always ends up looking like No.3!

    I would have to go for #2, simply because I adore travelling!

    Hard to choose....I guess I would go for room #1, but I would end up in room #3!

    wish I could maintain the look of #1, but it would quickly end up looking like a 2 and 3 together!

    The third one, for sure! I could totally imagine come right in and making myself comfortable and wanting to stay a while

    I like all three, but the one that I would have would be the third one. I have to much of an eclectic style to keep to one design theme.

    I always aspire for #1 but when shopping always find so many fun things I can't resist... so I end up with #3!

    I love the third one. I like the patterns of the the curtains and the rug and that lavender dining table just makes it.

    I like them all!
    The second is a little dark for my personal taste though.
    The first is chic and clean, but the third is my favourite: without going overboard (the walls aren't the attention grabbers) there are lots of lovely and interesting colours. It seems more homely and creative.

    I really like some of the items in the 3rd one but it is too cluttery for me. I could definitely live in the 1st one.

    I vote for #3! So lovely and cozy.

    Apart from the odd warrior mask thingy hanging on the wall (middle of pic) I love the middle one. The dark, rich tones are really warm and adventurous, and it's finished off nicely with a splash of red.

    I'd go with number #3!
