Really Regal Interiors Design

Interiors Design
This royal flush of regal interior visualizations, designed by Uglyanitsa Alexander, knocked us off our seats with the all-encompassing richness of fabrics and classically designed furniture pieces that look as though they have escaped from a sprawling stately home in the country.



The frilliness of this style will not be for everyone, a minimalist would be ripping down those curtain swags and boxing in the padded pillars before they’d even put the kettle on, but those who appreciate the finer, fancier things in life will go all giddy for this unabashed show of wealth.

Highly reflective floor tiles bounce light around the high styled, high class home, trimmed by deeply decorative coving and a central ceiling rose. Silver quilted pillars continue the shiny show, adding even more opulence to a luxurious lounge that comes complete with a detailed cathedral sized religious mural, sandwiched between a bronze wall and gold ceiling treatment.

Outdoor Rooms We Love From Rate My Space

Colorful Patio


A former driveway, made obsolete by an addition to the home, serves as the floor for this beautiful outdoor living space. Posted by RMSer wubber_ducky.

Relaxing Outdoor Space


RMSer Becauseisaidso's husband built this pergola from plans designed by her late father, an architect. A Chinese garden gate from Beijing creates the far wall.

Bathed in Green


We can imagine whiling away sweet summer afternoons in this rustic arbor, made especially cozy with a topping of wisteria and Carolina jessamine and lush plantings in front.
Pretty in Pink


Colorful cushions add life to this festive area that seems perfect for relaxing with friends and family.

Outside for the Evening


The homeowners have created an ultra-livable room in their small backyard with this outdoor kitchen.
Sweet Spot


With astilbe, ferns and heuchera in front, and woods as a soothing surround, who wouldn't want to venture up this flagstone path to a comfortable swing? Posted by Mariavb.

Enchanted Garden


Not exactly an outdoor room, but this "Narragansett shed garden" is clearly where the homeowner spends most of her time. "The girls next door refer to it as the 'Enchanted Magic Garden,'" says Loreleilu.
Cozy Retreat

Building a retaining wall to level out the yard enabled the creation of this cozy spot. Teknobear reported that the do-it-yourself project was completed in four weekends.

Party Patio


Making an outdoor space your own is what fun design is all about, and clearly this party patio has the designer's stamp. Posted by bunsoboy.
