Locanda di Doris

Posted on Tue, 1 Dec 2015 by midcenturyjo

Imagine an old tumble-down stone barn near Todi in Umbria, Italy. Imagine it fully rebuilt, stylishly furnished and waiting for you to come visit. Two suites, “Love” and “Passion”, private garden, pool, olive grove, slow tourism. Locanda di Doris is the beautiful B&B created by Doris Sochaczewski and Valentino Fialdini. She’s Brazilian with European soul and he’s half Italian half Brazilian. Both are artists, stylists, food and wine lovers and trend watchers. No wonder the inn is so fabulous. I’m ready to book my flight. Trouble is I don’t think I’d want to leave.

Fantastic scandi inspiration 2

Posted on Thu, 26 Nov 2015 by midcenturyjo

One more for Meg’s inspiration file. Scandi style. Tick. White and wood. Tick. A lovely accent of palest blue and a smear of berry colours. Linen, leather, velvet, thick wool. Fantastic Frank has done it again. And the good news is that this apartment is still for sale. You’ll find the listing here.

 

Fantastic scandi inspiration

Posted on Thu, 26 Nov 2015 by midcenturyjo

My friend Meg loves all things Scandinavian so when she asked for help decorating her tiny apartment I knew where to look for inspiration. Why Fantastic Frank of course! This real estate company is know for the fab styling and magazine worthy images that set their listings apart from all the others. Meg loves all things white and wood. I think we hit the jackpot with this teeny 26 m² apartment. Mirrors bounce the light and “extend” the room while the autumnal hints are so pretty. If you love it and have to have it unfortunately it has been sold but you can find the listing here.
