I have been inspired a lot of times by the great work of the

fantastic frank stylists and photographers

but when I recived the message in my mailbox of Lea Kaufman 

of the Berlin office it made me very curious...

This time they collaborated with the gallery Swedish Photography

 and mixed an apartment for sale-viewing with a showcase of 
various Swedish photographers 

Love the amazing combination... see more here!

ps. I am so proud... this weekend my house was featured on  one of the most popular 

Bulgarian fashion sites FriChic.com... have a look here to see the post!
