A fab home tour with a twist

Happy Monday! This year I've shown at least three homes for sale through Fantastic Frank. Honestly, looking through their website is like flipping through an interior magazine! So you can imagine how excited I was to find Fantastic Frank have collaborated with Swedish label MES DAMES to shoot home. With roots in France and now based in Stockholm, MES DAMES was founded by designer Lisa Wikander and creates beautifully tailored and cool clothes with a twist for women. Love the home and am so excited about the whole idea...so inspiring!

A round bed? Why not?!

See more images of the home and collection here, or for a complete write up check out the FF blog. 

Other exciting Fantastic Frank inspiration include this, this and this post. 

Or if you'd like to take a peek inside the homes of other fashion designers check out this or this home. So wonderful!

This home has totally got me thinking about who I'd team my home with. Perhaps Danish fashion brand Sofie Schnoor? Or my other staple favourite clothing company Day? Who would you team your home with?

Have a lovely day!

A fresh, bright and beautiful Dutch cottage

I do love a weekend escape. This white country cottage belonging to interior designer and co-owner of NU interieur /ontwerp Nathalie Fransen, architect Bas Van Egmond and their three children in the Netherlands hits the mark! The Dutch cottage has been renovated into a beautiful, fresh, light space using among other things, a lick of white paint, a new kitchen and bathroom. For a relatively small space of 34 metres square this family weekend retreat gives an illusion of space. Take me there!

I love this cottage, it has everything I could dream of in a holiday cottage, how about you?

You can see more pictures and read more about this Dutch space here. 

For more Scandinavian retreat inspiration you might want to check out this page (warning: you might want to pour yourself a coffee first, you could wile away a good hour looking through these Scandinavian rural retreats!). 

Have a lovely weekend!

PS we're off to the jungle here in Thailand for the weekend, exciting! See you Monday.

The black and white workspace of a Finnish blogger

A few weeks ago I posted a beautiful collaborative workspace in San Francisco and it was so popular I thought I'd post about another inspirational office today (because we can't all be on holiday in the Philippines!). This black and white work corner belongs to the editor of Finnish blog Lily. One of the things I love most about this corner is that it totally blends in to the area around it (love the black leather sofa). I could certainly sit here and blog, could you work here?

Lily with kind permission

The space includes an Eames DSR chair (15% discount with code MYSCAN) and the Aröd task light from IKEA.

You can also see her mix and match dining space here. Love the way she's photographed it don't you?

I also love this Norwegian work space, this beautiful white and light wood work area and this art studio. How about you?

Have a lovely day!
