Spanish photographer Lluís Real and his wife, Gràcia live in a house where color, light and small details of the past are the stars. Spotted on www.elle.es, the place is one of the most interesting mixes of styles I have ever written about, moving somewhere between ‘eclectic’ and ‘collected’ aesthetics … under the sun of the Balearic Islands. The owners prove such an ability to edit and curate diverse pieces, eras and textures that I am ready to suggest the name of a style after their work. One tip they recommend: when you look to create a Bohemian atmosphere inside your house, let the materials and textures be the stars of the rooms (for example, open kitchens or dining rooms that combine rustic wood planks, and a slate floor with iconic modern pendants and contemporary chairs). Have a look on the photos and let us know if you’ve enjoyed the project!
