I looooove this kitchen! The stainless cabinets with marble countertop is SO hot. I adore the vintage lights over the sink, and the beverage station with hanging wine glasses for easy access. I even dig the tree on the table – distracts you from the fact that there is no light over the table.

What a cool space – the random finishes on the ceiling and the peeling wall, together with the painted floor and chalky grey wall is all about subtle textures and sheens. And I may be nuts, but maybe a huge skull painted on the wall is not such a bad idea. 🙂

This photo makes me want to cry, the winter here has been so cold and snowy and BRUTAL. But I leave for Mexico in one week, so there’s that. But right now I would love to be sitting on that porch with a glass of wine.

I thought you all might appreciate some Hump Day eye candy. Gill Renlund has my favourite job in the whole world – interior stylist (and food stylist – OMG dream come true!!) and these spaces are magazine quality spaces because of his finishing touches. Lovely spaces – especially this first bedroom. The wall colour is divine.

Love the exposed brick in this bathroom by MAKE Architecture. This is going straight to my inspiration file for the second bathroom we hope to build in the old stables in our house. Modern with just the right amount of historical touches.

More like a favourite local café than a private house that’s the thinking behind this modern extension to a California bungalow in St Kilda, Melbourne by MAKE Architecture. A place for family and friends to come together. A place to connect with the local community. Inside connecting with out. Private spaces connecting easily with public.

This kitchen in a 1920s apartment in Stockholm featured in Elle Decoration Sweden is absolutely gorgeous. It was totally renovated but they maintained the peeling and cracked ceiling, added some Ikea cabinetry mixed with vintage pieces, Carrera marble, tiled walls, funky lighting… The resulting space looks like it has been there since the 20’s. SWOON! (photos: Martin Löf)
