HIGHLAND LODGE BY SUZY HOODLESS

14 October 2015

Hard to believe that this modern Highland Lodge made from granite, steel and glass by American architect Moshe Safdie is an actual family home, albeit at the end of a 13 mile drive in the Scottish Highlands.

British interior designer Suzy Hoodless expertly managed to juxtapose the interior finishes with the rugged beauty of the landscape. I adore the use of contrasting elements like the antlers and traditional marble bench or the modern fireplace in the sitting room with it’s concave pink mirror above surrounded by a group of colourful and comfortable looking sofas.

The pared back interior and clean lines of this one-of-a-kind Highland Lodge are very nordic and provide a great stage for Scandinavian furniture mixed with bespoke pieces.

I’m absolutely mesmerised by the angular mirrored side table with it’s reflections – almost a piece of art in itself though I think I would continually feel the need to polish.

INTERIORS CRUSH | THE IMPORTANCE OF TEXTURES

5 October 2015

autumn, interiors, decor, style, trend, styling, neutral colour palette, importance of textures, wood, leather, cork, concrete, linen, wool, decorative greenery, warmth, interest, tidy, clutter free spaces, Sarah Widman, Evalotta Sundling, Elin Kicken

 
A warm throw and curling up on this armchair with a cuppa is what I need on this rather damp Monday morning. After a stint of lovely warm autumnal weather the rain has returned to London but hopefully not for too long.

If you’re suffering from acute apartment envy let me reassure you that nobody actually lives here. This interiors crush was shot purely for styling purposes (I think). Still there’s something so appealing about tidy, clutter free spaces for me. It somehow cleanses my visual palate and makes me want to live equally sparse which is of course an oxymoron with 2 small kids and The Cowboy in the house.

What really stands out for me in these pictures is the importance of textures in a mostly neutral colour environment. The wood, leather, cork, concrete, linen, wool and decorative greenery add so much warmth and interest to the space making it habitable and wishing I’d live there.

If this was a shoot for a real estate agent then mission accomplished – at least for me.

Some lovely styling shots via Elle Decoration UK to lift your spirits on this hump day. I love the darker tones in the pictures and the soft lighting which hints at autumn being just around the corner.

Saša Antić is an fabulous stylist and Kristofer Johnsson equally talented behind the camera. I don’t think there’s a single story in either portfolio that I don’t like. Can’t wait to see more from the talented duo.

INTERIORS CRUSH | HEAD OF HOME DESIGN AT H&M

11 September 2015

Evelina Kravaev Söderberg, head of home design, hM home, home decor, home accessories, interior design, trend, style, elle decor, charming, texture, vintage finds, neutral backdrop, vignette, fresh look, mid-century
 

Evelina Kravaev Söderberg is head of home design for the Swedish brand H&M and she’s showing her beautiful home on Elle Decor this month.

For all of you who suffer from acute home envy and interiors crush (or is it just me!?) hold your horses. It took Evelina 17 years to create the charming home you see in the pictures today. She knew she wanted a neutral backdrop with calm and warm colours but it took time to slowly build up their beautiful collection of Mid-Century designer pieces. She and her husband made very deliberate and thoughtful choices as they only wanted to surround themselves with pieces they truly love and you just can’t rush that process.

What I love about their place is how Evelina updates the look with inexpensive home accessories from H&M combining them with vintage finds and designer furniture. As you can see in some of the pictures she also enjoys creating still life vignettes, grouping objects together and changing them regularly for a fresh look.

Something that’s achievable on any budget.

DREAM HOLIDAY HOME | BEACH HOUSE IN BRAZIL

16 August 2015

dream holiday home, scandinavia, brazil, beach house, dark rough wood, white resin flooring, lush green surroundings, rattan, terracotta, fold-away glass doors, summer, holidays, vacation, interior design, style, trend, natural, colour palette

Howdy! I hope you’re all having a great summer so far. We’ve just got back from our US adventure and I’m slowly working my way through our holiday snaps as well as piles of laundry whilst trying to stop the boys from having mud fights in the garden thus contributing to mentioned pile.

In the meantime I’ve got to share this gorgeous Brazilian beach house with you which coincidentally is where I’d like to be right now – and for the rest of the summer. How enticing does this pile of white cushions look?

The interior is kind of ‘Scandinavia meets Brazil’ with a muted colour palette and the use of lots of natural materials like wood, rattan and terracotta. Such a perfect contrast between the rough dark wood and the smooth white resin flooring. The fold-away glass doors set in heavy wooden frames make it easy to merge outside and inside letting the air breeze through and giving view of the lush green surroundings and the sea beyond.

But before I drift away with this dream holiday home back to reality and my pile of laundry. Wait… the kids are awfully quiet… *runs off*
