It&#8217;s important for it to be functional, practical and beautiful. It takes years to build a home &#8211; layers of travel and trinkets so I can\u2019t wait to see how the house evolves over the years.<\/p>\n\n<h4><strong>Who or what inspired the way you decorate?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Everything and everyone! I love <strong>Instagram<\/strong> and magazines but I feel so inspired by restaurants and hotels &#8211; these are functional spaces so I love to see how they work. It\u2019s important to only feel inspired as you don\u2019t want to copy a restaurant &#8211; it\u2019s about taking elements and making it work for you. For instance, I feel so inspired by the <strong>cafes in Paris<\/strong> &#8211; their use of glass is really interesting. I used gloss in my walls in the basement and its really modernised the space.<\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/collection\/naturals\/sisal\/sisal_bubbleweave\/honey.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3214\" src=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/AF_Laura-Jackson_Blog-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"641\" srcset=\"https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/AF_Laura-Jackson_Blog-3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/AF_Laura-Jackson_Blog-3-600x481.jpg 600w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/AF_Laura-Jackson_Blog-3-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/AF_Laura-Jackson_Blog-3-768x615.jpg 768w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/AF_Laura-Jackson_Blog-3-450x361.jpg 450w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/AF_Laura-Jackson_Blog-3-225x180.jpg 225w, https:\/\/floored3.cosmos-cms.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/AF_Laura-Jackson_Blog-3-20x15.jpg 20w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alternativeflooring.com\/collection\/naturals\/sisal\/sisal_bubbleweave\/honey.html\">Alternative\u2019 Sisal Bubbleweave Honey Bubble<\/a> <em>stair runner as seen at Laura\u2019s home<\/em><\/p>\n\n<h4><strong>Laura told us about her choice of sisal<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I chatted to Alternative Flooring who didn&#8217;t recommend this particular sisal for stairs as the large loop isn&#8217;t great for heels, but as we don&#8217;t wear shoes in the house this wasn&#8217;t an issue.<\/p>\n\n<h4><strong>Colour or pattern or both?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>It&#8217;s so subjective &#8211; it really is whatever works for you.
