Kate Dixon's Circus Room

Roll up, roll up!

Showhouse room of Kate Dixon, Artistic Living Spaces

1 June 2010

There are some people in the world that are always going to put the rest of us to shame.  Kate Dixon is one of them - I mean, whose kid wouldn't love a functioning FERRIS WHEEL in their room for their toys to ride in?!  The room is actually a showroom, created for the Symphony Designers Showhouse, but it's a very real room, completely fitted out, everything in place, looking absolutely, mind-blowingly, fabulous.

The ferris wheel was created by Kate's father (a metalworker), the cabinetry and bedframe by her brother, and the canopy and window treatment by her mother, so I think it's safe to say the creation and execution of the room was a real family affair! 

The circus prints were made by Jeff Shumway, the pillows by SOWN designs, and the blanket is from Knitologie.  For more pictures, inspiration and a video of the ferris wheel in action, pay a visit to Kate's blog.
