The lovely Copenhagen apartment of an architect

Hello! I have to admit I'm counting down the days to the weekend when I'm heading to London to visit friends and family - can't wait!  Are you up to anything fun? First though, there are fabulous Scandinavian homes to be explored, and today's comes in the form of a beautiful danish space.  Situated in Vesterbro, one of my favourite areas of Copenhagen, this lovely apartment belongs to architect Marie Rasmussen. The pared-back nature of the home combined with the simple colour scheme means every item of furniture and statement artwork pops out.  I'm loving the mix of antique, vintage and modern too.

What a great home! There are so many different 'zones' including somewhere calm to work, relax (that daybed and sitting room), eat and sleep. I absolutely love the artwork too.

A few items I recognise: Butterfly chair, 7 series chair, Anglepoise floor lamp, DLM sidetable, Kubus 8 candle holder

Is there anything that stands out to you?

Other beautiful homes captured by creative duo Tia and Mette include an idyllic Danish cottage,  a lovely student's home and a fab Copenhagen apartment with touches of mid-century. 

It was so interesting to read all your comments and discussions about how Christmas is celebrated in Australia a few days back. It sounds very different but great fun! I must try it at some point (I like the sound of going for a dip and tucking into seafood!). Your thoughts truly bring the posts alive - thank you!

Have a lovely day!

Fabulous art from Citizen Atelier

I'm always on the look out for new and unique art for my walls which is why I was so excited to discover Citizen Atelier, an online art gallery that houses prints and paintings from around the world.

In addition, artists ship from their respective locations giving a wonderful personal touch. Excitingly,  Citizen Atelier is offering My Scandinavian Home readers 15% off sitewide until October 25th, 2015! Simply enter the code SCANDILOVE at checkout.

As you probably know, I absolutely love a seascape (I live by the sea and have sailed all my life), so I've got my eye on the photography by Gray Malin. Stephanie Vovas also has some fabulous '70's glam' pieces!


Is there anything that's caught your eye?

A beautiful bohemian retreat in Marseille

Hello! I feel like I've really been mixing up the styles (and locations) this week with home tours in Sweden and Australia and even some festive AW15 ideas. It's been fun - I hope it's felt inspiring to you too?! To keep up the spirit of the week I thought we'd go all out bohemian today with the fabulous 19th century French retreat of Emma Francis, owner of French fashion label Sessun.  Located in Marseille, the home has been decorated inside and out with items collected from all over the world including Laos, Japan, Morocco and Scandinavia. The rich browns, oranges and reds of handmade kilim textiles have been combined with the natural materials and fresh white walls, creating a lovely warm and relaxed vibe. And there's of course that view of the sea...

I wouldn't mind waking up to that view, how about you?! In fact, I get the sense that it would be hard to feel anything but relaxed here. Beautiful!

There are so many details and unusual items in this home, the more I look the more I find (look at those pendants over the outdoor table for example?!).  

Quick guide: Source handmade kilim pillows / cushions here, this original miliatary army cot from the 1940's is similar (and fab).

More bohemian homes include a Swedish fashion photographer's summer retreat, a Mexican house high up on a hill and the home of a Melbourne florist.
 
A side note before I shoot off: for all North American friends on here - I got word that one of my favourite Danish brands Hay is now available in your neck of the woods - via the wonderful shop Blackthumb. Hooray!

Have a lovely day!
