a perfect mix of old and new

Love visiting and being inspired by the creative styling team of Livet Hemma

Today I was pleasantly surprised again by the inspiring work of

 Linnea Salmen with a special attention for the stylish 

Cikada armchair from the early 60's.

Just love the way the discreet color scale has been mixed with graphic elements,

 a little bit messy wallet and objects to create a personal atmosphere and 

have you seen the black and white mosaic table? 

 just loved that DIY project from a while ago by Pella Hedeby!

a perfect mix of the new and the old and guess what...

 Ikea is having a vintage competition at instagram (@ikeasverige) from this Saturday

where you will have the chance to win the amazing chair designed by

 Bengt Ruda... see and read more about it here!

Monday - apartmentlove -

Starting this monday with this amazing apartment that

 I have admired for several times yesterday in the evening!

I was attracted immediately by the stunning combination of  

the stylish interior ( a mix of vintage and design) and

 the amazing and very inspiring artwork of Emma Bernhard on the walls.

I really like her work and hope to admire it very soon when in Stockholm.

Its just perfect in all it's simplicity... and perfect for my monday mood

Have a wonderful new week! 

black, white and brown

black, white, brown. is one of my favorite interior decoration combinations...

so when I saw this timeless, simple and airy penthouse at Stadshem 
I was attracted immediately by its beautiful contrast!

the mix of stylish and natural accessories, vintage founds,

 the inspiring stylingwork and the original details as the wooden beams

really made me smile!

a fairytale Christmas

.
 Love the magical atmosphere created by the mix of vintage accessories, 

the glass and gold accents, the green linnen and 

rich velvet fabrics and beautiful old frame on the industrial cabinet

It's such a beautiful place to celebrate a fairtale Christmas party and 

just perfect for some last minute creative styling ideas don't you think so? 

 inspired again by the work of stylist Cleo Scheulderman

Just admired this stunning 57 sqm timeless apartment with its perfect mix of

Happy that I vistited the entrance makleri site today and found this 

beautiful apartement that just has been sold...

Stoere mat zwarte muren van Alcro. een prachtige grote raampartij en een geweldig combinatie

van klassieke- en moderne elementen.... Gisteren kwam ik dit geweldige appartement (57 vierkante meter)  tegen toen ik weer eens heerlijk de internetpagina's van de Zweedse makelaars aan het bekijken was. 

Het was door de drukte al even geleden,  maar wat een inspiratie kwam ik daar weer tegen! De kunst om design spullen te mixen met vintage vondsten, planten, mooie prints en hele simpele maar creative decoratie ideeen blijf ik geweldig gevinden,  net als het feit dat de verkoopfoto's van veel van deze sites eigenlijk gewoon hele mooie binnenkijkers zijn die we ook in de woonbladen tegen kunnen komen... vind je ook niet? Als je nog meer van dit huis wilt zien: het appartement vond ik hier 

kidsroom inspiration

Love the nostalgic atmosphere created by the mix of  vintage, 

industrial accessories and beautiful blueshades

to celebrate their weekend when school is over...
