IN THE PINK “I am naturally drawn to color,” says the interior designer and owner of this petite but perfectly formed family home. And from the bright blue and green ikat wallpaper in the guest cloakroom to the fuchsia pink seen here in the open-plan dining and kitchen space, joyfully vibrant shades meet the eye all over the house. Asked where her affinity for color comes from, she simply says, “Color makes me feel happy and brings interiors to life.” Tip Homeowner and interior designer Kim Stephen (kimstephen.com) decided on a chic monochrome “backdrop” in the open-plan kitchen and dining area of her home. Onto this, she layered subtle texture – as seen in the dining chairs, from Sika Design (sika-design. com) – and eye-catching color accents such as the bright pink rug from Gonsenhausers Fine Rugs (finerugs.co.za).
