another gorgeous house in portugal

published August 7, 2008 in inspiration and interiors | email | print

Today another gorgeous, Portuguese home! This use to be an old fisherman’s house but it is now the home holiday home of Portuguese decorator Marina Saldanha.

The house, situated on the Atlantic coast, is surrounded by a beautiful cactus garden.

I love the long wooden kitchen cabinet, and the bright accessories that give color to the kitchen.

The bedroom is simply decorated but looks comfortable and cosy with bed linen from Egyptian linnen and beautiful Chinese lanterns.
