Yes, well theres nothing modern about it & the walls are timeless. Overall, it looks like something you'd see in early generations. People who are cultural like to keep things exactly the way they were when it was made.

i think it's my Saturn in 9th house Virgo that does that.

But the neat freak in me is urged to refurbish the room though splash some colours here and there, keep the beams... Get an original cover for the fireplace, brush up the floors. Actually, it looks a bit like my apartment, funnily enough

My favourite pallet is aubergine, purple, wine red, antique pink, pretty much anything purple/red/pinkish... You should have seen my apartment first, it was awfully dark but somehow it worked!

I used to have my bedroom bright turquoise when I still lived with my parents... I think it actually influenced my sleeping habits too. I never managed to sleep there for more than 5 hours on end!

I really do have a thing for colourful things though

@Moonfish: well, the only thing that really connects any of my bedroom tastes, is that I prefer rich colours and heavy or dark furniture. I think that's making up for my lack of Earth

i love that range of shades from "antique pink" to "aubergine" too. not too much into purple but sometimes i find myself going over the line into the realm of purple...

Oh, you should see me in real life! I hate to say it's a habit I truly have in real life too, no wonder people tend to find me immature

I only just realized how many times I used the in that previous post though, I usually try to avoid overkill of that smiley...

Whenever I think of Indian culture really the first thing I think of is the colours. Then the food I love that culture, have always wanted to visit...

Ah, and the hurricane always has me in his grip. He knows how to play his mammy very well... And pretty much everyone else he meets. I think it's his Leo rising, or his Libra moon, but damn that child is charming! The funny thing is, I think he must have picked it up from seeing me frantically cleaning up after him, he actually starts cleaning things up himself now!

@Moonfish:

Well, I'm not sure what you can class my style under. Some would say Earthy, and I do have Mars in Capricorn, my chart's ruler in Capricorn and both in 2nd house, but still I don't notice a lot of earth in my behaviour. Or maybe I just don't see it.

Also, my living room style is completely different. THAT would be very airy, light furniture, whites and off whites on the walls, see-through curtains etc... So perhaps we should look at what room could represent what part in our chart? (I'm guessing houses) I mean, a bedroom is private, you need it to relax, sleep, so you can't be disturbed. I prefer darks there because it blends in with the night, and since I have very light sensitive eyes I just cannot sleep in a room with too bright walls and other adornments. A living room is where you recieve guests etc... it has to look open and whatnot. At least I think so. And I think my feelings towards every room help me create a certain style for them.

Sun conjunct Pluto
Mars conjunct Pluto
Mars quintile Saturn
Venus inconjunct Moon
Venus semi-square Mars

If your Mercury trines Asc you must have Sun conjunct Mercury, right? I wish I had that
My Moon in the 12H house & most of my Moon aspects are harsh w/ Sun Mars Pluto in the 8H

I'm in love! I can only stomach old cottage-y bedrooms for a while, but this sleek design gets me every time! I think I even saw the same futon in a shop window where they sell Japanese furniture (mostly for the bedroom actually). I love those rice paper walls too, they give extra dimension to the room.

OF COURSE this is not representative of every Japanese bedroom, especially when you know that in Tokyo there is just not enough space in an apartment to go all out on a bedroom like that. But anyway, it's minimalistic, but still not entirely.

I think I've heard of that architect before, the church-like building looks familiar, it reminds me of a purist minimalistic house that was showcased years ago. It was said that it was of a Japanese architect but I can't remember his name.

I like minimalism, but to an extent. I think too much minimalism gets boring after a while, my eyes want something to look at too and not just a blank canvas. But it certainly has its charm! Too much decoration is often overkill anyway...

A lot of adornment but somehow with Moroccan style that actually looks good and somehow... relaxing
