Cozy Apartment in Sweden

Pretty little apartment in Sweden with one of the wonderful ceramic tile fireplaces I love so much. Doesn't it give the  look of this room a cozy feeling? Nice contrast of dark and light in this home with a touch of wood throughout. The apartments I find in Sweden all seem to have the most incredible light and nice tall windows...always lots of reflection with pale floors and white walls for a nice clean and simple look!

Enjoy!

I subscribe to Vogue Living Australia. A truly amazing magazine with a really interesting variety of homes. They are always so different and often full of gorgeous details. I like the simplicity of this home...the clean lines, cool floors and the large windows creating an indoor outdoor space.

Just a quick post tonight. Had such a big day today! Hope your week is going great and hope Halloween was fun for the little ones!

Enjoy!

Pale Grey with Modern Vintage

Oh this is such a great little space! It is one of those homes that when I go to write the title of my post I could use a list of words because it is such a mix of styles! Modern, vintage touches, a little shabby thrown in, industrial....and it is all good together. I love the light in the dining room and the pretty colour and cabinets in the kitchen. The super shiny floors are amazing and the bedroom looks so dreamy! I have been seeing a lot of this style of flooring similar to what is in the bathroom and in the entry. I showed it in a bathroom post here...really looks great.

Enjoy!

Mid-Century Modern Cool

I don't know what it is but I am finding the coolest modern homes these days...not really my style as I personally tend to be more shabby chic than modern chic...but this look is really starting to grow on me. This Paris home is great with the mix of mid-century furniture and modern current pieces and what about the carpets...oh so beautiful. Such fun and why not have a motor-bike in the entryway? A great conversation starter for sure. What do you think? Would you like to live in a home like this? 

Enjoy!

Black, White and Wood

This gorgeous Scandinavian apartment is owned by a couple who are in the business of branding various companies, something I am very familiar with.  Their beautiful home has a very consistant flow throughout that makes such a great clean statement with all white, black and warm wood....even the leather is in the same tones and feels just right with the rest of the pieces. There is also a nice softness mixed with the harder lines in this apartment. The office is also perfect with two identical desks and lamps in a great large workspace..

Enjoy!

Super Apartment in Sweden

Such a cute apartment in Sweden with wonderful and interesting details! The kitchen is so great with the high back splash of subway tile and the eat-in area. I love the hanging lights throughout the apartment...gives it a modern feel for not too high a cost....so easy to add these to any home. Great floors boards and what about that incredible wallpaper! I just love the look of it in an all white home..with that wonderful wall of colour in the dining room. The mix of chairs and the shot of green to coordinate with the wall is really fun. I love to add a bit of the unexpected in to a room and I find that is a bit of what we see in this apartment....

Enjoy!

Inspiration in White: Swiss Cross + X

The Swiss Cross symbol is really showing up all over Pinterest and on many blogs thanks to the Pia Wallen blanket. Done in black and white it fits so well into a modern Nordic decor. I have also seen versions of this with a big X as well giving a sort of stark, cool design element in a room. Both the cross and X are being used on pillows, wall art, wallpaper and of course in blankets and throws. Doesn't black and white always looks so good in decorating...always sophisticated...

Enjoy!

Domino Magazine is Back!!

Yes that is right! Domino, my all time favourite decorating magazine (I have every back issue) is being re-launched. It was shut down four years ago by the publisher Condé Nast but fans of Domino have kept the magazine alive through Pinterest, posting old features and photos from the magazine. The editor in chief will be none other than Michelle Williams, who worked at Domino before it closed and went on to become founding editor of the on-line magazine Lonny. Back at Domino now, she is bringing fresh ideas to the new on-line presence and to the print issues out on newsstands next week. On-line you can view and read the article, you can view just the photos of the article and you can shop the items from the article! Such a great way to find the items you love from the magazine. Wishing good luck to the new Domino team!!

Enjoy!

Pretty Pastels

I am really crushing on all the pastel colours I see on Pinterest these days! So great in a white room for a bit of subtle contrast and mixing all of the different pastel colours together looks so great. I especially like the brighter yellow with the pale green and pink. I have a very pale blue bedroom with neutral tones and white and I really love the softness of the look but it is really the only room I have a bit of pastel in my house. It would be simple to add though in a table or a lamp and I think it would pick up the look of the room especially if you keep it to a modern look. Of course pastel and shabby chic go together and always look great but shown as it is below is very new and fresh!

Enjoy!

Black and White Scandinavian

So love this Scandinavian apartment! So inspired that I can see doing this in one of my clients homes. The couch is just perfect. Modern but still comfortable and the coolest of lamps beside it...also the coffee table is just so perfect! I would love to have one of these cross blankets from Pia Wallen... they are really beautiful don't you think?

Hope you are having a great week. Check out these Scandinavian beauties HERE and HERE..

Enjoy!
