An apartment with a zest for display!

There's something about this Gothenburg apartment which really stands out. The high ceilings and original features from 1907 and the mid century touches certainly play a part in it's fabulousness. But what I notice most is the shelving and other display units and how they differs in style throughout every corner of the home! Whether it's String, IKEA or Vitra, the designers have really thought about what they want and need and the best way to display treasured items.

Which style of shelving do you like the most?

In my bedroom we have a really high sloped ceiling and couldn't find the right shelving to fit the space. So in the end my husband set about designing and building a custom made unit complete with hooks and suspension wires (you can see a glimpse of it here)! Just goes to show, there's always a solution!

Have a lovely day!

An oh so fabulous Greek escape

Autumn is really kicking in here in Southern Sweden but I refuse to let go of the summer just yet. Oh no. Firstly a beautiful book arrived in the post yesterday about how to bring the holiday into your home - more on that next wednesday when I'll be holding a very exciting interior book give-away!) and secondly today's oh so am-azing holiday home on the Cycladic island of Serifos in Greece. These images taken by Jerome Galland (check out his oh so fabulous portfolio here and instagram here) of Paola Navone's beautiful summer retreat are enough to keep Autumn firmly at bay!

If there's one thing that stands out for me it's the way Paola has painted rugs and patterns on the ground - and we don't need a home overlooking the Aegean sea to follow suit. Perfect inspiration! OK and there's that view too. Greece anyone?

More Greek escapes here and here.

Have a lovely day!

A Malmö home with a cool mid-century vibe

There's something kind of cool about this home in a hidden creative corner of Malmö, Sweden. I'm a big fan of mid century finds as you know, but mixed with geometric patterns and the odd splash of colour and greenery. Oh yes! Kind of inspiring for a Monday morning don't you think?!

I've seen quite a lot of IKEA hacks with the Tärnö garden chair and table set. Here they've painted the chairs pillar box red. And I've also seen canary yellow and deep indigo versions- such a simple update but oh so effective! 

Before I shoot off I also wanted to introduce you to my fab new sponsor See Design Shop selling clothes and accessories designed by Donna Gorman. Personally I LOVE the leather handle circle tote in either black basket or karma stripe black and I think I might have to get my girls the karma stripe mini tote for what remains of our summer days at the beach here in Sweden - too cute! 

Have a great start to your week!
