Are you in the mood for knitting?

Even though my grandmother tried to teach me how to knit when i was a child, I never really had the patience for it. 
Well knitting is not for grannies anymore, it became very popular the last couple of years,  and now it's already moving into the realm of interiors and furniture. 
From poufs to rugs, pillows and vases, it is the new trend.

I was looking for poufs to put in my client's family room, and I found those modern chunkily hand-knitted poufs at CB2. They would look great in a kids room or simply as an accent in a living room.

I love this area rug, what a great way to add texture to your space

My first Posting


Hello everyone!  Welcome to Noon! 
I've been thinking about starting a blog for a while now, and here I am finally jumping in!
A little bit about myself:
My name is Nour, and I am the mother of two wonderful children; Iman, 6 and Youssef, 1.  I Have been an interior designer in Vancouver for 3 years now, and I love what I do.  I travel a lot, and always thought about sharing my experience with people who share the same love of design and architecture. 
So, welcome aboard!  I hope you will enjoy this virtual journey as much as I :)
