Della's delightful room

As you may know I'm a proud Mum to two lovely ladies who are 3 and 5. I've realised that no room is more fun to decorate than a children's room. Not only can you go a bit wild, but also it needs constant updating as they grow - perfect excuse if ever I needed one!  I'm always keeping an eye out for children's rooms on Pinterest. And today I spotted this very cool space belonging to little 18 month old Della. The monochrome room was designed by her Swedish Mummy and Daddy: Sandra and Marcus, the creative duo behind playful graphic poster shop Miniwilla. Thank you Della, for allowing me to share a tour of your room today!

I spy: Prints and posters by Miniwilla, the Joanna Rug, String shelving, Eco Forest baby blanket, Miffy lamp, Lundby Dolls house, Honeycomb pom poms, Fjälllräven ruck sack, Tee pee. A selection of gorgeous children's designer clothes.

Such a cute room don't you think?

For those of you hurtling towards the school Easter holidays in a panic - I love this DIY easter t-shirt project for afternoon entertainment.

And for those of you who fancy a more grown up take on a white space for today's inspiration - I love this home of a creative Finnish duo, this Brazilian home and this monochrome Dutch space.

Have a great day!

Swedish apartment in white and grey

What a difference a little make sunshine makes, I feel like a different person today! I just spotted this Swedish apartment currently for sale and thought I must nip in and share it with you. It's very classic Swedish style (in my eyes anyway, would you agree?) with it's white and grey colour theme and lovely designer pieces. I could waltz around here humming to myself today, how about you?!

Alvhem Mäkleri

I spy: Kitchen units from Colombini Casa and the Björk rug by Design House Stockholm.  Flos 2097 suspension light in chrome in the sitting room, Asplund Snow chest of drawers, Birds by Architectmade and linen bedding in the bedroom.  Thonet 214 style chair in the home office. And an abundance of very cool art photography.

What do you like the most about this apartment?

For more white and grey Swedish apartment inspiration it's definitely worth checking out this Stockholm space and this beautiful Malmö apartment (one of my favourites). Are you a fan of grey and white?

Have a lovely day!

House for Mother

Good morning! I hope you had a lovely weekend (and enjoyed my rare Sunday home tour). It's so gloomy here in Southern Sweden today but it's OK because I've a beautiful project to share! 'House For Mother' (great name?), is the brainchild of Förstberg Arkitektur as their contribution to the Linköpingsbo 2017 housing exhibition. While the outside will be constructed of raw corrugated aluminium, the inside will be designed using exposed timber and walls lined with plywood to add warmth. This is definitely going to be categorised under my 'fabulous architecture' label! What do you reckon?

I'm a big fan of plywood (more inspiration from this, this and this home) although I  haven't channeled this in my own home. How about you?

Oh and I love the Bumling lamp, featured in House for Mother (had to repeat the name as it's so lovely) in white.

I hope you have a wonderful start to the week!

A light and relaxed Amsterdam home - and give-away winner!

I hope you're enjoying some down time this lovely Sunday?! I was so happy to finally meet interior stylist, writer and photographer Holly Marder a few weeks ago here in my home.  I was very honoured to be a part of her tour as she really does shoot some fabulous homes. Today I wanted to share with you the Amsterdam home of Jessica Peters (owner of Design Lemonade) and her husband Oliver Tardieu which Holly shot for her 'Homes with Heart' series on Decor8 blog. Jessica's love of Dutch design and Scandinavian decorating really shines through. I think this home has heart don't you? And just look at that beautiful baby bump!
