A striking yet calm monochromatic Swedish home

Hello there! I promised myself I would show a colourful home tour today, and then I spotted this dreamy Swedish space and had to share it! Monochrome home tour it is then. I love the contrast between the elegant high ceilings and original period features and the contemporary dark wood floor pooled with light- it's just so striking, don't you think?! The open-shelving in the kitchen, study and bedroom help to create a really light and airy feel and add interest. *sigh* what a truly lovely space....

Could you imagine tinkering away in that music room / study?  I'm imagining music flooding the home on a summer's evening. I'd love to be able to play the piano - a friend of mine is a musician and she says it's wonderfully therepeutic. Do you play?

Plus they really add to a home - this Swedish family home and striking Danish home with a calm feel have beautiful pianos too.

A note on where a few items are from: Study: Eames DSW chair, floor lamp. Bedroom: linen bedding, clamp reading lamps. Sitting room: elephant cushion, DLM side table, WQ print, Feather pendant light. Kitchen: letter cups.

In case you were after that home bursting with colour today, do you remember this home with black floors and vibrant hues? Which look is more you? I could go either way - or perhaps meet somewhere in the middle?

Have a wonderful day!

PS Do you live in a high-rise but long for a pool? - These guys have found the answer. How terrific is that?! Not for the faint-hearted though....

A cheerful Copenhagen home with pops of colour

Moving in together is such an exciting step - but what happens if you have two completely different styles? That's what happened to Katrín Björk - who loves bold colour and Jamie Søgaards - who prefers the monochrome look. And the result? A lovely black and white home in Vesterbro, Copenhagen, layered with vibrant pops of colour in the forms of lamps, trays, stationary and cushions. Such a light-filled, happy home! Let's take a peek....

Have to say, I do love a little colour, how about you?

I love it when you spot things in homes you can do yourself the same day. Here, a montage in the hallway (next to Muuto dots) could be replicated with washi tape (also love these alarm clock and pendant light DIY ideas!). You can source washi tape here.

Other items: Tom Dixon pendant light, Series 7 chairs, orane fan shaped folder, Hay Kaleido tray, these stools are similar.

More cheerful mid-week homes include this bright Malmö apartment (the neon pipes!), the vibrant home of a Dutch illustrator, and the happy home of Jenny Brandt.

Have a happy day!
