I can appreciate more maximalist homes bursting with items and colour. They can be wonderful to look at. But when it comes to my own home, I like things to feel calm. Somewhere I can breathe and truly unwind. How about you? Do you prefer a home that feels busy and layered, or one that feels quiet and soothing? I really believe there is no right or wrong way.
That is why I love Norwegian Tone Trollbu’s service, 'Interior Therapy'. Tone combines interior design with her background in psychology to help clients create a home that truly suits them. Isn’t that such a thoughtful idea?
It helps that Tone also has a wonderful eye for design. You can see this clearly in her own home just outside of Oslo, which balances calm, soft colours with just a touch of edginess to give it personality. Think wavy mirrors, a delicious combination of pink, buttercup yellow, lime green, a hint of terracotta and soft milky tones. There are also so many individual pieces that make the space feel truly personal.
I hope you feel inspired by the tour!
Did you notice all the art and sculptures? And the mural in the bathroom is such a lovely touch, don't you think?
Was there anything that particularly stood out to you?
If you have the time today, do stop by Tone’s Instagram feed. And if you understand Norwegian, you might also enjoy listening to her podcast, where she interviews experts from the interior industry.
Shall we take a look at a few more Norwegian homes today? How about:
A charming rural cottage by a Norwegian fjord
Inside Juni's creative Oslo apartment
A simple, yet cosy Norwegian cabin
A magical, rural Norwegian escape
Happy Tuesday friends!

What an incredible home!
ReplyDeleteI love the white textured carpet in the living room. Do you know who makes it?
ReplyDeleteI love the portrait of the woman that hangs over the white chair and pink vase. Does anyone know anything about it? Those eyes are mesmerizing.
ReplyDeleteI love it.
ReplyDeleteI like homes that feel light-filled and comforting. There is just enough color to keep me interested without feeling overwhelmed. The peach and mint bed cover is such a pretty print. I also like the buttery color on the bottom kitchen cabinets.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pieces of art, sculpture/stoneware and lamp shades. Tone uses color in subtle but engaging ways. Top kitchen cabinets in pale blue, peach in living, gray stool and pillows, mural in the bath. The peach and gray? bed cover caught my eye too along with the kitchen rug.
ReplyDeleteQuiet and soothing for me. Often as I step into my home, I tend to dwell on how the home might feel to a guest at that point of time:)
