What does it come to your mind when you see the world "relaxing"? To some relaxation means going for a walk, or taking a holiday in a tropical resort, to others it resumes to having a cup of coffee in a rainy day and enjoying a good book. I tend to fit into this last category and I run to a good book any chance I get. Therefore, one of my biggest dreams is having my little cozy reading nook in my home from where I can admire my garden enjoy some quality reading.
Designing such a place is not a difficult task, but a key factor that will contribute to your overall state of mind when relaxing here is the design scheme including shape, materials, textures and, most important, colors and tones. As you will notice in the collection displayed below, a neutral color scheme or pastel tones and even an all white decor empowers your corner and creates a more fresh, cheerful relaxing atmosphere suitable for reading.
