Modern architecture has its advantages, just like with everything else. I can not say that super modern buildings or houses are among my top favorites. It simply depends on where, in what context & moment. This pearl is located in North Bondi, in Sydney.

I am childishly fond of low storage units, especially this type of design that is long so that there’s space enough on top to use for nice still-life. Anything that is less fun, can be hidden inside instead. It’s stylish storage quite simply.
l’ve been looking for rugs to our livingroom but also to our sons rooms too. It’s not that easy really. There’s a lot of rugs out there, amongst to choose between. Great variety but still. One moment I decide to go for an oriental style & thereafter to choose a more modern, simple & one-colored rug. I will leave it for a while. We have currently white rugs & they are looking a bit tired & worn now. My son went to Sweden for a couple of weeks & brought back a black & white three meter long runner in plastic. Pappelinas famous design. I’m thinking about the right place for it – probably the hallway. That’s a good start 🙂

Stripes are always stylish & adds flair. They never go out of date.

Old photos or portraits – are they that common in modern homes nowadays? Perhaps more in homes with elderly or possibly if you are very family oriented. I can safely say that the difference is great between Sweden & Australia. Maybe because it’s greater diversity in terms of culture. People who have moved far away from home tends to wanting to look back to remember near & dear ones. It is close at hand to have pictures readily available – it probably feels more at home & reminds about family, friends & relatives.
I like the connection to the family & the different situations in life that we otherwise easily forget or puts away somewhere in the back of the head. It’s exciting also with the character that photos & portraits create in a home. They tell a lot about the home’s residents & makes the space more interesting.
