Flowers from the garden

My garden is pretty young and the blooming flowers are yet sparse still, around this time every year whenever I have the chance I pick fresh flowers from our garden. I find joy in bringing home what nature has to offer! A little ritual that marks the change of season and the years passing by… These little handmade bouquets instantly give an uplifting note in our living room. It’s true that no matter how humble a flower is the beauty that encapsulates is precious.

Why I love Scandinavia...

To me, this place looks right. For many reasons I could own this house. Ok, like many of us, I like many styles and dream about the perfect home. But this place is real. It has stuff that I like (low storage space in the living room) or I want to buy like the floor lamp from Ikea. It combines wood and white furniture and it has wallpaper, but most of all it has this undeniable scandinavian charm! Who can resist?

Summer house in Sicily

A garage area of a seventies summer house in Plemmirio Sicily is transformed into a new dwelling. On Office has done an amazing work as you can see. On Office is an international practice, based in Porto, Portugal. They see architecture as the fulcrum of a seamless gradient spanning from furniture and industrial design to urban incisions and global tactics. In this house their philosophy and spirits are apparent. Their key choices are impeccable. Concrete flooring, white walls and mid-century modern furniture... I'm in love(yet again)!

All white interiors

Today I thought of sharing an all white danish home. Looking around for some inspiration in Bolig Magazinet I found this gem! The owner Birgitte also runs a stylish boutique, called Me and Jake, full of all-feminine yet sexy coctail and evening dresses. No wonder her house evokes such a delightful approach to modern and minimal aesthetics. To me by now, it seems a rather thin case to ever own an all white home yet I find quite a few features in this one that I could possibly have opted for myself, if only... Surely I would have add more touches of boho elements and primarily loose the leather couch. Still, it's an abode I long for its purity, serenity and all white scheme.

A house in Ljubljana

There are certain aspects in the lines and form of this contemporary home that make it irresistible at least to my eyes! It's open plan living and the abundance of natural light present an eclectic choice and an environmental awareness. Natural materials that blend perfectly with the characteristics of the space create a serene living lieu. The surroundings of the building are equally designed to provide simplicity and calmness. Much praise to the work of Bevk Perovic Arhitekti.
