Today's post is all about images that transport you to a paradise where senses are pampered, body is relaxed and mind is in a state of bliss.
Naladhu is a luxury resort located in the islands of South Male Atoll, Maldives.
There are 19 private colonial-styled houses with ocean views.
Just love how the outdoor and indoor spaces just blend into each other.
Rich coloured fabrics juxtaposed with cool white washed timber panels in the rooms.

She describes her home as contemporary but also individualistic. Modern lines but with a sense of warmth and comfort. 
Her philosophy, that truly reflects in her home, is that one need not spend loads of money to buy paintings by famous artists to make one's home beautiful. Being creative and inventive is the key. 
This simple paisley design artwork has been handmade by Shalini.
A close-up of the paisley design.
Mr & Mrs. as she calls them were picked up from a garage sale in Kansas City.
A cotton durrie hangs on the wall was a gift from her mother-in-law.
This bedroom corner has simple elements of nature. A set of four framed leaves picked up during her morning walks. The delicate leaf pattern on the table lamp goes really well with the frames.
This photograph in the silver frame is of Shalini's maternal grandmother. * So beautiful*
Books form an intergral part of Shalini's home space. Another very important thing in her home is nature's treasures brought back from morning walks:-)
Delicate Neem flowers, Frangipani or even few stems of fresh neem leaves add that extra cheer to her space.
"My home is a place where you can put your feet up, curl up on the couch and simply feel at ease." says Shalini.
