So do you have a favorite? What does a romantic room mean to you? How would you decorate a room meant to feel romantic? I think it means different things to each of us..that's the beauty of design and decor, the endless interpretations. I love seeing one concept through so many different eyes..its fascinating to see how we take one idea and each conceptualize it so differently. For me, romance is that last picture or a tall canopy bed draped with an abundance of soft flowy ivory fabric...preferably with a warm tropical breeze blowing through the room.. (OK might as well throw in the Atlantic ocean beckoning in the background and while you are at it, add in the mega yacht in the distance too...lol)
Enjoy your day
Agreed...those spaces are so romantic.
ReplyDeleteWhen I think of romance I think of candlelight, flowers and soft fabrics. Some the spaces above don't have them but they sure give the romantic vibe.
We share the same ideas for what a romantic room should look like. I hate a room that is dripping with crystal and silk and decadence, these are all elegant spaces and romantic but not overly done. I could see celebrating a special occasion in each one of these wonderful spaces...those bathrooms are so pretty and that last outdoor space..wow! I agree, its incredible. Have a beautiful day!
ReplyDeleteThe first picture of the bedroom is inspiring all kinds of ideas for a seating area across from the bed in our bedroom. Hummmmm?
ReplyDeleteI added so many of these images to my pinterest boards! Loved this post, you captured so many romantic rooms, which is my favorite style of decorating. Especially the frenchy ones!
ReplyDeleteRomantic indeed! I love the table set with the horses and the bedroom with the birds!
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful is that outdoor dining setting with the hanging candle lanterns. And all those plush linens? You have thee best resources of lovely spaces! I am constantly amazed by you!
ReplyDeleteI'll be totally honest here when decorating I don't think of romance. To me romance is more about the little things my husband does, the gestures. But if I had to pick a room it would be the bathroom by Barry Dixon, it's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThe photos you have selected are absolutely elegant! They all feature amazing custom details, which I equate to real interior design & decoration. Your blog is lovely.
ReplyDeleteI adore anything by Miles Redd. That Amy Howard bathroom is divine too! Have yourself a wonderful day!:-)
ReplyDeleteI'll share Barry Dixon's bathroom with Debra!
ReplyDeleteAnd with a good bottle of Champagne and some Mozart, Oscar Peterson or maybe Pink Floyd!
Cheers!
Again - another luxurious post! Happy Wednesday!

The bathrooms are just incredible. They are my favorite. So dreamy!
ReplyDeletethe second image
ReplyDeleteis a dream to me!
i love.
i saved the pattern on pattern bedroom image in my files. i am supposed to write an article on
'pattern on pattern....when is it too much?'
i say....
when it is done properly { as in your image }
NEVER!!
Another terrific round up! To me it doesn't get more Romantic than a little Parisian-chic style. Mais Oui! XX
ReplyDeleteJeanne
Oh my goodness! Soon I am going to have to start a file on my computer just for pics from your blog - so much inspiration!! I loved that first courtyard and the last pic for their intimacy. But the kitchen with the painted ceiling and that bath with the herringbone floors and wall of windows? Oh....
ReplyDeleteThis is an impressive gallery you have pulled together, I have saved the link..:-) I am immediately drawn to the John Jacob interiors. Romance for me has always been about my love of family. I love that my kids visit us at 3am and want to snuggle. Reading on the sofa under blankets, a gorgeous dinner table. So sweet..
ReplyDeleteRomantic is seldom a "look" I go for when designing a space but I think I would gasp if I walked into anyone of these rooms. The Barry Dixon bathroom is over the top romantic and the first Haslam garden is a dream garden room.
ReplyDeleteWow... I must say the dining areas were all so beautiful, especially the last one. I truly love the bath with the sheers around it. It is soft, elegant, and so romantic. I would love that right in the center of my house.
ReplyDeleteEverything is so beautiful, Tina!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the Amy Howard's bathroom. Can you imagine yourself in that tub? Oh, my! A dream!!!
I hope you're feeling well, sweetie.
Have a wonderful day!

I like the Haslam designs as well as those by Redd. They are classic.
ReplyDeleteThe bedrooms I have always loved most are designed by Mario Buatta. He does beautiful well, and I think a bedroom should be beautiful as well as comfortable. I always feel as if I could live forever in one of his rooms.

*** Yes, well, I uh.... wellll, simply stated, it's ALLLL lovely!! (You always seem to find the beauty AND "new" things for us to see for the first time!!! That's one of the reasons I love COMING here!)...
ReplyDeleteAnd that LASSSST outdoor-dining pic??? Living in the hills of the Tucson desert, t*h*i*s particularly APPEALS to BOTH my HUSBAND and ME... (Even "le DAWG" (grins!) loves it out on our patio/pool area, especially at night, just lazing on "her" lounge!)... And, we soooo blessed with the magnificent city lights below.... Ahhhh, He is SOOOO GOOD, isn't He???
Warmly,

Amazing photos and research as usual! I love all the out door spaces, but wow! some of those master bathrooms are over the moon!
ReplyDeleteAll of these images are so luxurious and elegant! Where do you find all of your gorgeous images?! I love the last picture too--it makes me feel like I'm in Italy!
ReplyDeleteTina...you've outdone yourself this time!!! Love the Barry Dixon bathroom. The mantel is oh so fabulous. Adore the John Jacob bedroom with four poster bed and lots of fabric. Looks so cozy and romantic.
ReplyDeleteWhat's romantic to me? A chandelier! You have a post full of amazing and beautiful chandeliers. Thank-you for this piece of heaven. What a delight to look at.
ReplyDeleteWow, such a broad selection, many of them representing the same reaction or sensation you mention. The copper tub from Decasare Interiors is so warm and inviting, I absolutely love it. And the "sweet, romantic" look in the third (I think) photo is also very appealing. For us the idea of coziness is important, too imposing or austere doesn't have a sense of romance.
ReplyDeleteRemarkable photos again, you certainly had me ooooohing and ahhhhhhhhing!
tp
I think roses always give a place a romantic vibe. I just love them!
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures too, so amazing!
So many beautiful rooms!!! Romance to me is great music, flowers, great scents and a break from the every day. The sound of the ocean sure doesn't hurt either!!!
ReplyDeletexo Elizabeth
So many gorgeous images, but I'm totally awestruck by the Nicholas Haslam outdoor dining...so romantic!!
ReplyDeleteAs usual, you leave me speechless! Love all your picks. My idea of a romantic room is one with lush, soft linens and fabrics. Thick, soft blankets, fluffy pillows...
ReplyDeleteThat outdoor dining is just what I need to have for me and my wife to be together alone and have our romantic meals.
ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteWow! Those rooms make me want to start over in my home. But then again that's nothing new for me. lol Inspiration like this is my downfall.
Those kitchens are amazing. I love!! the first room. It looks like you could just live in there and never leave.

Love a little romance in design and these rooms are filled with it. Particularly the bedrooms and outdoor spaces.
ReplyDeleteI love all of the poster beds and the lush linens....gorgeous! The bathrooms are amazing as well....I love a nice big tub to relax in! Beautiful pictures....you always inspire!
ReplyDeleteI love the photos and the design inspiration. But I am seeing a lack of inspirational art on most of the room photos :) I do believe that a simple artwork could do wonders on a room.
ReplyDeleteOh yes...the last one. Dining al fresco is so wonderful. Here in Texas, as you know, it gets hot so we must have everything undercover with fans, etc. This image is absolutely beautiful with all the vining and lushness + candles everywhere.xx's
ReplyDeleteAgain, I could be cut and pasted into any of these scenes but candle light and a fluffy bed that one could get lost in even with two. The more it looks like a puffy french pastry, the more delicious. ;)
ReplyDeleteThese rooms are definitely romantic! I love the room with all the floral pillows. I used to have all Ralph Lauren bedding and it looked beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe John Jacob bathroom is perfectly romantic.
ReplyDeleteAnd the last photo! Love that.
Love the kitchen in creams with splashes of dark wood .Love it loveit love it,have I said I love it yet :).
