New apartment phase 1: Living room

Digital ed Carina Claassens put together mood boards to help her decorate her new apartment, starting with the living room

I recently moved into a new flat, and have to furnish and decorate from scratch. With so many furniture and accessory options available in stores and online, it’s difficult to pin-point exactly what to buy. Creating mood boards made this process much easier and allowed me to experiment with mixing different styles so I could see what works and what doesn’t.

My main inspirations were these three images as they sum up my style quite well. I like clean lines but also love colour – so a mix between mid-century modern and ethnic is what I’m going for.
