@themellowmaximalist
Proving that you don’t need to use saccharine shades to create a dopamine living space, Tom Bax AKA The Mellow Maximalist has become a wealth of interiors inspiration for cleaver uses of colour and print.
His converted Victorian workhouse refurb benefits from stunning original features such as lofty ceiling heights and floodlit arched windows. His use of contrasting paint colours covering the inner arches of his home and ceilings is a masterclass in how to use bold paint subtly. And if you’re in the market for some quick win home updates without the commitment, check out his use of contrasting print bed linens and kooky coloured gallery walls.

Part deep dive into a retro interiors world, part business account for the hugely talented vintage furniture hunter Lia Briamonte, Anemone Interiors’ Instagram feed is a must-follow if you’re a sucker for cult design and interiors finds.
Expect images of the incredible interiors gems Lia sources for clients, from beautiful Murano glass lighting to classic Wim Rietveld chairs upholstered in power pink fabrics, as well as a wealth of pop culture references, intriguing art and vintage holiday snaps that will have you wanting to run away to the Amalfi coast.
No rules on this feed just hours of dopamine-inducing scrolling that we’d quite happily get lost in for days.
