Myrica Bergqvist

Posted on Wed, 28 Sep 2011 by midcenturyjo

A few days ago you’ll remember I featured a bright and colourful apartment styled by Myrica Bergqvist. Today I have a few more shots of this “hundreds and thousands” home from Myrica’s website. Love the apartment. Love Myrica’s work. It’s fun and relaxed, packed with personality and if not quite perfect it’s always perfectly lovely. It can be real life and even a little larger than life as in what I’ll call the “cat house” and the “pool house” will show. Come back tomorrow and I’ll have even more Swedish fab and funky styling as we take a look inside Myrica’s own tiny home.

Marta de la Rica

What a way to start the week! Let’s all move into this party home extraordinaire. Designed by Madrid interior designer Marta de la Rica this house in the resort of Sotogrande in Andalusia is perfect for long hot Spanish days. Friends and family, fun and relaxation. The dining room is just right for a long lunch, curl up for a movie in the family room, party time on the entertainment deck and pool house. Actually you’ll find me in those stunning bathrooms. I always love a bathroom.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  


  

Well maybe not married. At least in not this deconsecrated and now renovated little brick chapel in West Hobart, Tasmania. Yes I’m stalking Tasmania! The history! The cutest buildings. This sturdy early 1900’s building has been transformed with a contemporary warehouse vibe but the chapel shell remains as does the simple utilitarian feel. It was plain and functional in the praise of the Lord when it was a church and now it is minimal and functional in the service of the owners. Link here while it lasts.

Gorging on chocolates

More sneak peeks of my new old house. The painting is almost done and I have indulged my chocolate addiction. Nowhere near finished but you can get a glimpse of where I’m heading on my page. I’ll be back later with today’s “real” post.

Heavenly B & B

Long time readers will know that Kim and I LOVE church conversions. LOVE. I think I’ve found the perfect spot for a weekend getaway… if you live in Belgium (or if you are passing through). Het Verloren Gedicht. The Lost Poem. How romantic! Sigh! Beats breast! Swoons! Ok enough of that just pass the champagne!
