The perfect old stately desk in dark brown wood with arched legs & carvings that you can only dream of in today’s furniture market. Perfect indeed ⭐️

Something great
That something great ahead of us – is the best time if the year ⭐️
Solution
String is a perfect shelf system that’s adaptable & can be designed into many different functions & looks. This is a great way to solve a room with a sloping ceiling where the surface is used efficiently with a solution that is both useful & makes space for beautiful still lifes.
Good idea
Such a good idea if you have the space & a few nice images you’d like to display. Put up a few of framed pictures in a row & the same pictures up & down below – to achieve an interesting wall that catches the eye.
Warm
The brown warm color tones, materials & layers upon layers of textiles is a wonderful combination. And together with the photographs on the wall, it’s perfect.
Styles
It’s nice to mix different styles, materials & colours to create a homely feeling. Asian decor with Nordic design suddenly makes the whole room interesting.
Warm minimalism
Minimalism with a warm touch – mixing different white palettes, lighting & levels that creates an exciting result.
Harmony
Different beige tones in an otherwise relatively white & light foundation creates a peaceful harmony. With black added into it, you get a nice contrast.
Villa
Newly restored villa in Italy, available for rent a couple of months more, into September but then going for sale on the market. Beautiful white villa with big windows surrounded by greenery & close to a blue lap pool.
Combination
Fun combination with the graphic black & white checkered rug, pillows in all sorts of patterns & the slightly unusual solution with the sofa in front of the curtainless windows.
Colour palette
An inspiring colour palette created with creativity & rustic luxury.
Slowcation
When you’re after a slowcation with lazy days & moments to look back at & remember. This seems optimal for me.
Cinnamon bun
One of the most Swedish things you can have when in Sweden for a visit 🇸🇪
Art
We’ve been home in Sweden for a short visit after almost two years of isolation & are now traveling a couple of weeks in Germany before we return home again. We’ve made many visits to various museums. Partly for the art, partly for the architecture (many museum buildings are fantastic) but also for the great silence when you slowly walk around looking & taking in the works. It’s a very calm & soothing environment.
Hidden
A balcony – a small leafy hidden world high up among the clouds, where you can enjoy silence, tranquility & rest – and forget about all the chores of everyday life.
Bathroom
Lovely bathroom with white subway tiles on the wall & classic black and white floor. Timeless!
Contrast
Black & white with a touch of wood as a warming effect – and black as a contrasting color – never fails.
Exhibition
One of the things that’s always on the list when traveling, is to visit a couple of museums. The exhibition at Städel museum in Frankfurt was a wonderful experience & will remain as a precious memory for life.
Museum
I love museum visits – the buildings, the exhibitions, the premises & the experience. And I would never miss the chance to visit the museum shop. It’s always nice, inspiring & enlightening. This one in Frankfurt is just mind blowing ⭐️
Frankfurt | Germany
The Rhine has had & still has enormous significance for trade in the countries concerned. Also a great strategic importance, as many castles & forts along the river testify. Today it was just beautiful in itself & the recurring bridges link the different areas with the city as the center. A beautiful place to walk along.
Balconies
It’s something very special with these balconies from 1950’s. It’s typical for this decade with balconies that’s cantilevered, in concrete & with steel railings – often in canvas or in corrugated steel sheet for protection or privacy.
Country style
A country style that never goes out of style. Very cozy, comfortable, lots of color & patterns, large rugs, generous surfaces & inviting.
Interior
Sometimes I ponder about how big an area you really need, without feeling trapped. I have a preference for smaller homes, that can decorate functionally with what’s needed for everyday life. The main thing is access to an outdoor area. Either way, this interior is an example of a living room in a size that fits. And looks good.
Granted
Truth be told, there’s so much to be thankful for. But we get so busy with our everyday lives & everything that doesn’t really work as we want & had hoped, that we rarely stop & count the blessings we’ve been enriched with.
Chandelier
A chandelier, spruce twigs & Christmas balls in any color – and suddenly you a beautiful Christmas decoration that gilds the Christmas parties.
