It's time! We're announcing our full shortlists for the Interior Influence 2019 Awards, celebrating Ireland's online creative community in House and Home style. We wanted to shine a light on all of our incredible nominees - and believe us, there is A LOT of talent out there - by introducing you to the shortlisted accounts in every category.
We all know that without gorgeous photography, Instagram wouldn't be one of our favourite platforms for discovering new interiors and homes. This is the shortlist for 'Best Use of Photography' - the account that nails its interiors photography, sponsored by Desenio.
