Not Your Usual Instagram Home

On Instagram @darkdakhouse, a couple opens the doors to their vibrant home—an eclectic mix of colour, texture, and playful treasures, complete with a feathered companion named Dopey.

Your home is unlike any other on Instagram. What inspired you to embrace such a colourful, expressive aesthetic?

We've always been fans of colour, both in what we wear and how we decorate. By not limiting ourselves to a minimal theme, we've given ourselves the freedom to bring back pieces from our travels around the world. No matter the style, we always find a way to make them work in our home.

Colour can be tricky to balance. How do you ensure your space feels cohesive rather than overwhelming?

We narrowed down a palette of our favourite shades—red, green, blue, and silver—and made sure every piece either matched one of these colours or complemented them. Think blue and orange, pink and green, or red with softer pink tones. That way, the home feels vibrant yet intentional.

Your home is full of playful touches. Are there any particular objects or corners that best capture the spirit of your style?
