concrete and more

If you follow my blog for some longer you probably know that I

really love ceramics, candleholders, minimal accessories and original objects.

In my opion they are really perfect to create beautiful still lifes - my guilty please ;)
but also simply as a beautiful eye catcher on your sidetable or shelves,

Yesterday I discovered this stunning collection of concrete accessories

released in 2016 by Spanish/Mexican design studio LaSelva in collaboration with

Designer Iván Zúñiga. The collection is crafted and designed in

tough grey, black and rust-colored concrete while the corresponding accessories are

made from stunning contrasting materials as wood and metal.

The collection, designed for Mexican homeware brand Más,

features different vases, wooden and concrete trays,

geometric candle holders and concrete plates.

Beautiful simplicity and real eyecathers as I love it so much!

Als je mijn blog wat langer volgt dat weet je waarschijnlijk wel dat ik echt gek ben op keramiek, kandelaars, aparte accessoires en mooie voorwerpen. Ze zijn echt perfect om mooie stillevens te creeeren maar ook vaak al zo mooi om gewoon als eyecatcher op je kast neer te zetten.

Gisteren kwam ik deze geweldige collectie van betonnen accessoires tegen van de Spaans/mexicaanse ontwerpstudio LaSelva die 2016 in samenwerking met ontwerper Iván Zúñiga is uitgebracht. De voorwerpen zijn handgemaakt en vormgegeven in strak grijs, zwart en roestkleurig beton terwijl de bijbehorende accesoires uit mooi contrasterend material zoals hout en metaal bestaat. Echt zo gaaf!

De collectie, ontworpen voor het Mexicaanse merk Más, bestaat uit verschillende

vazen, houten en betonnen dienbladen, geometrische kandelaars en betonnen borden.

Echt prachtige eyecathers die stuk voor stuk zo op mijn verlanglijstje kunnen! Vindt je ook niet?

on my wishlist - FCK stoneware by Serax

just admired some new arrivals at the wallpaperstore

where I totally crushed on the stunning roughly hewn surface of the

Serax FCK collection designed by Frédérick Gautier

Made from cement stoneware, these “La T” teapots, called

“Concrete Teapots” and mugs are a tribute to architecture.

Every teapot's micro-architecture is based on elementary shapes:

cylinders, trunks, cubes, cones, discs.

Beautiful imperfection as I love it so much...

bathroom love - norm architects

Concrete, dark porcelain tiles and customised bronzed fixtures

a beautiful contrast with the bright walls on the other side of this amazing space

Norm architects have created this en-suite bathroom in an old townhouse in Copenhagen.

The open space bathroom is situated in continuation of the master bedroom and I love it....

stylish and industrial

.
different raw materials, large window, a concrete floor,
wooden framing and a metal roof and so much original and
creative (designed by the owner) details and furniture to admire

while visiting the inspiration gallery of ELLE decoration yesterday
I totally crushed on this stunning home - an engine shed at an old train depot -
that has been turned in an amazing summerhouse
and where the monochrome tones inside
perfectly fit with the colors of nature outside

To be honest I am a real spring and summer person

but this beautiful norwegian family home made me dream away...

The cosy kitchen with the concrete bench, anchored by a double
sided fireplace is at the heart of the lodge and you can find
a second fireplace in the very inviting livingroom
with its high pitched ceilings and timber materials

Christmas at this beautiful mountain getaway
in this popular skiing destination ??

yes please....
