A vintage inspired Silver Lake home

Hej hej! Are you ready for a little boho-vintage love today? LA interior designer, Kaitlin McHugh, her musician boyfriend Brendan Hines, their cat and pup Charlie, are welcoming us into their wonderful Silver Lake home today and it's full of lovely vintage and mid-century modern pieces! Kaitlin is a firm a believer in reusing and up-cycling but also loves to blend in work by contemporary artists and craftspeople. Think mid-century armchairs, marble tables, planters, kilim cushions, and photo art for a truly personal and relaxed home. Enjoy!

So much soul! Don't you think?

Get the look: sitting room - sofa by Folke Ohlsson (try Ebay), this is a great source for vintage mid-century armchairs, photo art - El Matador by Jon Rou (I love many of his pieces - how beautiful is the Beach?), pick up Kilim cushions / pillows here (love this lumbar one!).

If you'd like to find out more about Kaitlin's home you can see more pics and read the full feature here.

Other mid-century inspired spaces I love (and there's lots!) include this charming inner-city home, Holly's sitting room and a 1920s home decorated on a shoe-string budget. And for an entire day of mid-century lovin' - there's always the archive! If this one comes up first just scroll passed.

Have a lovely day!

PS I'm waiting for a great friend of mine to arrive from London - oh how I love summertime! Hope you've got some fun plans over the next few days too.

A Swedish apartment in soft white and grey hues

When you move house, do you look for something in need of a large-scale renovation, a space that simply needs a lick of paint, or a property completely finished and ready to go?! I've only moved home a couple of times, but each time I've looked for something in between - I guess I'm realistic about my decision making skills (or lack of!) although, as you know, I like to dabble and put my own touch on things!  Sometimes though, wouldn't it be lovely to just move in somewhere that's picture perfect? Take this Gothenburg apartment for example.  The space was recently sold by Swedish interior consultant Linnéa who lovingly restored it down to the last detail - adding soft grey hues to the walls, buffing up the beautiful original flooring and adding just the right amount of furniture to make the living space practical and relaxing. I think I could move right in, how about you?!

Doesn't it look so unbelievably calm?!


Get the look: Söderhamn sofa, this chunky knit blanket is similar, macrame plant hanger, white linen table cloth,

You can see more pictures of Linnéa's apartment and latest projects over on Instagram.

I can't wait to see what she does next!

Happy Tuesday!
