For 18 months writer and editor Francesca Gavin travelled the world asking creative people for the chance to peek inside their homes. The findings are documented in the book Creative Space: Urban Homes of Artists and Innovators, featuring 30 homes including that of a favourite of mine, French graffiti artist Fafi. I'm feeling all inspired to go home and decorate!

Nice post. These photographs are like looking into the heart of something--the chaotic clutter of picture four, the simple and bare necessities of picture two--tell us something about the people behind them. Funny how it's something we'd [mostly] overlook if we walked into their homes, but seeing them as pictures, alongside other rooms, all the differences and details are so noticeable.
Fun post - how exciting it must have been to peer into the lives of creative souls!
How interesting it is to see the spaces of the creative. Very interesting post!

How cute. I could imagine being in that first pic, lost myself in daydream land there for a second. Lovely post xxx
It looks great, I'm always up for seeing inside creative peoples homes!
I love seeing other people's houses..you definately get a real feel for their personality. I like the third pic most...the high ceiling is great. Just the kind of house I'd love to have.
So inspirational... I'm in desperate need of an interior change, and these will come in handy.
I love Fafi, too, her girls are amazing.

That first space looks great!!!! I really want a study!!
for some reason i find the last photo my kind of work space..full of books to read and and lots of room for me to sit down on the floor and draw sometimes:)
That first one is gorgeous. I like living breathing rooms, rather than ones decorated for architectural magazines.
LOVE the rotary phone in the second pic.
OH MAN! I love those kinda house! Mine will be like that in the future :))
Absolutely gorgeous! Congrats on receiving the Blog of Note! Fantastic and well-deserved.
I saw the other side of eternity through my accident in ’85: you alone decide where thy destiny lies, not God, not mortals nor circumstances; this Finite Existence is just a proving ground to achieve Heavenly sainthood. Why leave your ETERNAL destiny up to chance in this FINITE existence? Trust Jesus, not yourself. God bless you!
I have seen things similar to this it is absolutely amazing, a peek into the life of a home and its creator.
I love this photos!!!
I like ur blog,keep going
