One of the key kitchen trends this season is to do away with upper cabinets (not entirely practical if you have a small kitchen, I know! But Ulrike gets away with it beautifully in this space).

This is a great source for boucheroute rugs*, pick up a vintage school chair here*, Love x Play poster from Odot studio. Source a vintage wooden racket here* (or just look in my Mum and dad's upstairs cupboard in London and you're bound to find a whole selection complete with towelling grips - John McEnroe style!!).

My home suddenly feels so serious. I might just head on over to the websites of some of the artist's featured in Ulrike's home! So many fabulous ones here, and I've tried to name as many as I could!
Has this home inspired you too?
If you'd like to see more (and I can't blame you!) Ulrike shares daily snapshots of her home over on instagram: @donnerstagsonntag
Happy Thursday guys!

PS I'm writing this post in the Malmö IKEA store restaurant having used my 'family card' to buy a great big semla (swedish easter bun-type thing) and a coffee (bargain!). It's surprisingly calm in here (I DEFINITELY wouldn't do the same at the IKEA on London's North circular!!).

My favourite thing here was actually the bouquet of flowers on the dining table... I actually had to save it in my inspirations folder. But that doesn't mean I didn't like the rest of the apartement - love the playful details an overall relaxed feel of the home. And about doing away with upper cabinets in the kitchen - we would love to do that in ours. It is a fairly small and narrow u-shaped galley kitchen and no upper cabinets would make it so much roomier. But not shure how we would get enough cabinet space. Oh, and I loved the dish rack. So practical with the two tiers. Would be perfect for our cabin in the mountains - need to find out where it is from!
ReplyDeleteHi Rita, the flowers are beautiful - remind me that I need to pick up my 'Friday flowers'! It's amazing how they can completely lift the spirits! With regards to the kitchen - I COMPLETELY understand you. I am renovating the kitchen at our summer cottage and it's only 8 metre square, I would LOVE to do away with the upper cabinets but there's absolutely no way, we just wouldn't have enough storage.
