A Malmö home teeming with design classics

Some weeks I struggle to find beautiful Scandinavian inspired home tours to share. Other weeks they seem to fall into my lap. This week is definitely the latter - I'm so excited by the three posts I've shared already this week (here, here and here), do you find the same when you're blogging?! Today I've found another exciting space! This apartment is based here in Malmö, Sweden (who I might add, qualified for Champions League last night - amazing! Heja Malmö!). The space is teeming with real design classics (more of which below) and the pink peonies add just the right amount of colour to the otherwise monochrome space. Lovely!

So - the design classics I was talking about. I spy the Knoll Diamond arm chair, Eames DSW chairs and Tom Dixon Copper Shade light in the sitting room / dining area. By Lassen Kubus Bowl and Tom Ford coffee table book on the side table. Design House Stockholm Work Light and CH24 Wishbone chairs in the kitchen. Er, what else? Can you see anything I've missed?  Feel free to add anything you love in the comment section below!

For a beautiful vase I'm loving the Klong Äng right now. It recently won best interior accessory in the Elle Decoration Swedish Design Awards 2014. It's top of my birthday wishlist!

Have a lovely day!

Fabulous inspiration from Danish OYOY

I'm so excited to share the loveliest interior inspiration from Danish homeware company OYOY with you today. The lifestyle images were snapped for OYOY's Autumn Winter 2014 collection which now includes OYOY Mini (cue: the world's cutest cushions and blankets for children). OYOY are known for their fabulous imagery (see this and this post from previous years) and AW14 definitely does not disappoint. I wonder if they'd stop by and style my home for me?!

Anything that caught your eye?

My friend has hoops in their sitting room like the ones in the image above. I'm all for indoor playground equipment (see this, this and this home for inspiration), but I haven't quite found the right place for it in my own home - how about you? But there's always space for a cute wigwam and polar bear cushion...

Have a lovely day!

A serene home in neutrals and dusty hues.

Hello! I hope you've had a great start to the week?! Today I'm inspired by a home decorated in neutrals, muted pastels, grey and white. The use of soft textiles throughout also work to create a relaxed. homely feel. It's actually a fairly small space (53 metres square) but the owners /designers have made clever use of every inch. What a lovely home!

Stadshem via Planete Deco with thanks

Just like in yesterday's home, I can see so many pieces I love  - Sitting room: rug similar to the one shown in this fabulous home from private0204,  Gubi mirror. Bedroom: Felt ball rug, linen bedding and Hay boxes. Dining area: Bumling light. Office: Tivoli radio, Eames DAW chair. Hallway: Vitra Hang it All.

Anything in particular you love about this home?

Have a lovely day!

A fabulous Swedish apartment in Malmö

Hejsan, hejsan! I hope you had a fabulous weekend?! Have I got the most amazing home tour to share today!  Excitingly the apartment is for sale right here in Malmö, Sweden and situated on a lovely square in the town centre called Davidshallstorg (if you're visiting Malmö go there to enjoy vintage and quirky clothes boutiques, restaurant Mrs Brown and a short walk to one of my favourite haunts the Victoria picnic theatre). Every room in this spacious apartment is so fresh and light thanks to the white walls, high ceilings and double doors. The owners clearly have a fantastic sense of style too decorating the space with a perfect mix of designer pieces and high street finds. My Monday morning has just got infinitely better!

I spy: Kitchen: 7 series chairs, Tivoli radio, Rosendahl clock.  Rosendahl monkey. Children's bedroom: red bumling light, the Vitra Hang it All. Dining room: Eames DSW chairs, Kubus 4 candleholder. Sitting room: LCM chair,  what else, what else?...feel free to add anything in the comment section!!

Could you move in here?!

Have a wonderful Monday!

PS thank you to my uber stylish friend Malin for the tip on today's home tour!

Quirky interior inspiration for the weekend

I do love to show home tours (you can tell by the hundreds of Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Finnish and International homes in my blog archive!) but just occasionally I come across images from a company which are so beautiful and inspiring that I can't resist sharing them here too. Take Olsson & Jensen's autumn/winter 2014 lifestyle images for example. Olsson & Jensen is a Swedish company, based up the road in Helsingborg, selling vintage furniture and items for the home in Sweden and beyond. They also seem to be specialists in creating incredible spaces! There's something unique and quirky about all of these rooms - whether it's the mix of contemporary and old, over-sized pendant lamps or oil painting gallery walls. I'm taking my inspiration from here this weekend.

Olsson & Jensen

I would love to re-create the sitting room in my home!Anything in particular you'll be adding to your Pinterest boards?

I hope you have a wonderful weekend and see you Monday!
