Having ventured to far-flung places like Joshua Tree and Norway on the blog this week (only virtually, of course, although wouldn't it have been nice to have visited in person?!), it feels so good to round up the week with a home tour right here in the heart of Malmö. And it's a beauty too! Think deep, earthy tones, vintage finds in lovely dark wood, a vibrant mustard yellow accent and the odd fresh bloom. This charming Southern Sweden home is bound to put you in a perfectly serene mood just in time for the weekend - and there's so much inspiration to be taken from it too!
Beautiful.
To me, it holds a touch of nostalgia too. My Grandmother spent her thirties in the Punjab in India and brought back a lot of her dark wood / cane furniture with her when she returned to England.
Is there anything that stands out to you?
If you'd love to see a few more homes in rich, dark tones over the weekend - take a look at these:
Is this your kind of look, or do you prefer to decorate your home with a lighter touch?
Right. All that's left for me to say is: I hope you have a fabulous weekend! Thank you for a brilliant week. I've loved reading all your comments and mails!

ReplyDeleteI love the horde picture too! Thanks for pointing it out xx
DeleteI see what looks like white washed wood floors in many homes you profile. I was wondering is that what is usually used (in Scandinavia)? It would seem with the right type of paint, upkeep would be easy: no sanding, no refinishing.
ReplyDeleteLove your blog. My first stop each morning...after lovemeow.com
Yes, it's a really popular choice. We've got painted floors, both at home and at the summer cottage. It can get a little scuffed but I think that only adds character. The only thing to watch out for is if you're a brunette - especially with white floors, dark hair really shows up!
DeleteLa belleza de esta casa está en el perfecto contraste que da la madera y el bambu. Le da calidez al gris nórdico.
