Roost | Return to rustic

Lighting from Roost - how wonderful are these caged chandeliers? I love them hanging together like that. The shapes are really inspiring. The simple wood candle sticks are gorgeous too. They would look really nice in my slightly rustic home (we'll call it 'urban rustic' )



Funny how home decor seems to have come full circle recently. I am seeing so much more organic natural shapes and materials which we seemed to have moved away from for the last few years with the trend towards all thing modern and minimal. I, for one, am glad to see the return of rustic - combine it with a little modern simplicity and I think it's close to perfection!



And these wonderful bamboo "cloud" shades are fabulously organic - the random shapes just seem to float in space. Well styled photography - like these images - is really inspiring, don't you think? - gives me a total feel for a product line.
