Sofas in mind

We recently changed our sofas from dark grey covers to light grey & somewhat lighter material to fit the warmer weather. It got me thinking about sofas, mainly because we intend to replace the armchair in the work room to a smaller sofa instead – or maybe it will end up with another form of seating or function. Anyhow, once I had picked, selected, put aside & selected again, which took a while because there are so many nice images as well as sofas, I realised that I’ve chosen a lot of grey sofas. Funny how your mind works unconsciously – probably because I had grey in the back of my head for some reason or am I simply drawn to that colour right now, maybe…

You know that I don’t choose images after my taste only, it has to be something appealing of course but I love to have a spread in style & taste for it not to become too predictable. In any case, in terms of today’s blog post, I opt out of most gray sofas to mix it up with other colors. Well, other colors may be perhaps to promise too much, but other than grey then.

Daily inspiration, with seating

Large sofas, cool colors & space for many – it is superbly good! The fact that it is a design that reminds of the old-time way of making mattresses by hand, contributes to the whole. Yes, it’s colourful but you know what – It’s ok!

Daily inspiration, bright colours

Somewhat charming, with the mixture of furniture, the different rich colours, the rug & wall gallery. A personal style with a longing to the fifties. Gorgeous, delightful yet simple.

Simply WHITE

This is for the love of white, regardless of environments or things – for the fresh & simple impact as well as for the pleasant feeling this colour create, especially when combining white 0n white & several shades. Many people seem to consider that it’s a cold colour, lifeless & uninteresting. That may be so, but not for me – a BIG no, no from me. Various white shades that is combined with materials & structure can look incredibly interesting, exciting & inspiring. Of course, it has to be in combination with the light in the room.

Also, it’s rather important to add layers for a better expression of comfort & quality. Or else, there’s a risk that it may look like it’s too cold & unfinished. I guess that the lighting is crucial or rather, essential, in the end. Not to forget, the daylight that opens up for endless variations throughout the day.
