A few photos of this gorgeous space that I call soft industrial. It has great industrial elements but it is softened with chandeliers, flowers and smooth lines. The dining room table is simply perfect because it is not too wide and the wood is full of texture. A really lovely space!
Enjoy!

I always dreamed of having a log cabin somewhere in the mountains of Quebec but that was not to be. My love of cabin decor however has lived on and this space really has the best of this design. Gorgeous and rustic with all of the modern touches necessary to make it comfortable. A big kitchen with a wonderful adjacent family room. A gorgeous bathroom and a view outside that is sure to relax the mind and cure the soul!
Enjoy!

Check out these pictures of the restaurant Höst by the architects Norm out of Denmark. I love how they used reclaimed wood and woolen blankets to create a warm and inviting environment. Who would want to leave this place? What the designers did was mix the feeling of eating outside on a Scandinavian farmyard with an urban, more minimalist decor. They also produced a line of tableware for the restaurant as well as design custom tables and seating.
The cuisine uses traditional ingredients of Nordic cooking made modern and new. Very much like the design of this wonderful space.
Enjoy!

This is the home of Annabelle Kerslake who is the editor of the on-line magazine Fete. A wonderful open plan space offsetting dark furniture with white and cream. I love the Victorian letter holder that has a card from a photo shoot for the magazine as well as the silver stag head. A bird decal on the wall above vintage books is another of the cool fun elements in this home. The bedroom of Annabelle's daughter is especially cute with the white and pink striped tent over the bed and the ruffled bed cover makes this space perfect for any little girl.
So many beautiful details in this home and I think that is what makes any home so different and special...
Enjoy!

This home, all done up in neutrals, is so chic and contemporary yet still very comfortable. Gorgeous textures and the mix of old and new pieces keep it interesting. Love the bathroom fixtures and the use of mirrors in the dining room. Pale walls blend with the floor and furniture to create a soft and warm space. Really lovely..
Enjoy!

This lovely apartment in Sweden is full of collections, antiques, vintage finds and lots of humour! I really love the stork that you can see in the living room. Take a look at the collection of teapots above the armoires and in the glass case are the collections of sponge pottery and small animals...
Enjoy!

I love the extra details you see in certain homes...you know all the forgotten areas that we don't bother to decorate but in certain homes the decor goes all the way... to the stairway! It is a really area of opportunity because it is usually near the entrance of the home, takes up a large amount of space and can look so cool without spending a lot of money! Just adding some paint or a cool runner can make such a difference in the look of the stairway and can complete add great impact. Take a look at a few that I found for you!
A really cool runner in bright colours adds fun to the all white entry.
Painted blue and cream runner looks so good for a little French look.
A bright orange runner on white but with the added orange stripe up the wall.
Another blue and white painted stair but with a wide stripe.
All white stairway is always good!
French numbers! Love it...
Pretty pale blue..
Numbers, numbers..
Enjoy!

This farmhouse located in upstate New York was first featured on Decor 8 (love Holly's blog. Just bought her book) for Rue Magazine. The photographer Emily Gilbert (first of all she is amazing) really captured the spirit of the family that lives here...of course this type of home is really the kind that I love.. vintage collections (the zinc watering cans are great) and a mix of various styles that together create a wonderful and comfortable space.
Enjoy!

This is the home of actors Corbin Bernsen and Amanda Pays. A super comfortable and eclectic home that the couple, along with their four boys, have decorated themselves. Vintage flea market finds mix with new items from Pottery Barn and West Elm.
I really love the kitchen with the reclaimed barn wood cupboards and the metal school chairs. The concrete counters look fantastic as do the lights and backsplash tiles from Morocco.
Great hits of colour throughout the home make it a really cozy space..
Enjoy!

I was looking at some back issues of Lonny Magazine and came across this fantastic beach house in Malibu. First of all, I love California! Yes I would go to LA anytime. I have always had great trips there for work and for fun. Second, to live in Malibu on the water would be rather nice don't you think....? This beach house of designer Tobi Tobin really appeals to me not only because it is all white but it is such a great mix of old and new items that make this home very personal. Check out these photos and the video as well..
Enjoy!
