I LOVE every single image you posted here. Any of these rooms would be welcome additions to my dream abode - or wardrobe as in the case of that marvelous Ralph shot. Tough decision indeed!!
Beautiful aria you are singing here Scot. Bravo!
What a feast for the eyes! You've chosen the best of the best!
Great post. Such a nice combination of images.
Scot,
We question the choices yet we always make the perfect ones. Choices allow our minds a swim in freedom. However grand and numerous it's fantastic just like these great photos.

Beautiful post, Scot.
Love these images.

I loved this one Scot, I can so relate!
Denim or pearls, tweed or silk, descisions, descisions!
Can't we have both? I vote for that.

Great group of photos. I love the lodge one with the hunter painting, the one with the horse paintings, and any with plaid.
I must be country. But it can't be too far from a grocery store to pick up tea & coffee, lol
Scot, Love all those photos. Of course I love all the SMW shots. Thanks for the Roger Banks-Pye shot. I forgot all about his tacked up fabric and the fabric rug on the floor. I especially love how you create dark rooms, but filled with light and light accents.
@Kevin - firstly - thank you. I do love when I have clients who will embrace the idea of one of those dark, moody rooms.
And, that Roger Banks-Pye bedroom is one of my most favourite spaces ever! The almost riot of pattern and texture - but yet, it still feels so calm and restful . . .
Oh...must we have to choose? Complete torture! However, the common element in all of these fantastic images is...the best of the best quality! Divine!

Yes! Yes! Yes!
I love all of these rooms. Granted I am a fan of dark and moody rooms.

As long as there is beauty, like in all these images, I am happy: town, country, colors, monochrome.
Always loved RL interiors and SMW also knows how to create beauty.
Scott, This is my favorite post you've done yet! I saved every image to my computer and plan to dole them out to my tumblr. You amaze and inspire all your readers. I also feel this dichotomy, being torn between country and city. Is it possible to love both equally?
May I add another either/or I struggle with? As a Southerner, I love American style, but as a lifelong Anglophile, I dream of a fairytale like Merrie England. I lived in London for a while after college. So, tell me, is it possible to wear cowboy boots and walk the corridors of Buckingham Palace? I suppose it's another case of fashioning personal style.

Oh Scot, I apologize for misspelling your name! Neal
Neal,
No worries about the spelling - it's kinda common . . . lol.
Thanks for the sweet words - As a designer, I'm lucky. I can work in multiple homes, with a variety of clients, and thus can express differing aspects that inspire me.
OMG I LOOOOOVE every image you shows here...oooo I can stop look again and again..you have smae taste as I..sooooo happy happy that I found you..woaw congrats :)) have a lovely day/Marie
I say have them both - and Mathew Goode - too! KDM
