In Part Two of GoodFactories‘ FREE resources for interior designers, we have listed some great blogs. These blogs are updated almost every day by passionate writers, often feature more interesting concepts, and make it easier to view the latest trends that you may have missed. If you follow all these blogs, you should not miss another trend!
Emmas Design Blog is one of the best European home furnishing/design blogs that I’ve run across. While designs here tend to be modern, they are not over the top, and have inspiration from new and old Scandinavia. Also I’d say the writer has an eye for softer colors with clean and soft designs that really look great.
