What's In a Word

Elegance or ostentation? Savoir fair or presumption? 'Posh' is a word on the slippery edge of semantic change. The Posh Pad Blog will flit between both worlds - the chic and the gaudy, the brilliant and the brazen, to bring you fabulous design finds for your pad. Furniture, rugs, accessories, lighting, fitting and fixtures, architectural details and art.

Stylistically we will keep an open mind, but given that this blogging team is personally inclined towards European aesthetics, you can expect to see a lot of Italian & Scandinavian contemporary furniture design; the classic timeless simplicity of Parisian style, colonial inspired, safari style interiors and not so rustic country house charm.

About Me: I'm a furniture buyer, traveling the world looking for beautiful furniture and accessories for stores. This fabulous life style affords me the opportunity to visit the Milan Furniture Fair, Paris' Maison et Objet, the Las Vegas and Highpoint shows to name but a few.

Doing so I harvest ideas, hot trends, designs, stories, names and interior design inspiration which I hope to share with you.
