INTERIORS CRUSH | PERFECT COLOUR PALETTE

15 April 2015

Perfect-Colour-Palette-via-Hitta-Hem-01

I’ve written about the trend for nude colours and pastel shades on here before and this gorgeous Swedish city apartment fits right into my current obsession with this perfect colour palette.

It’s no secret that I’m not a huge fan of the use of lots of colour in the home, at least if it’s not counter balanced with neutrals, preferably white, but I do like soft tones like nudes, chalky blues and greens, greys and brown shades and especially contrasts.

Dark and light, black and white, rough and smooth, old and new – for me it creates pace, an interest for the eye and this apartment has plenty of it.

Be it the vintage Bistro chairs paired with a sleek black dining table, the dark grey bedroom with white accents in the skirting, pillows and wall art or the knitted beanbag and tulle lamp shade in the kids bedroom. There are subtle contrasts everywhere which makes for an enjoyable viewing.

And I just LOVE the pale pink and dark grey desk space – smooth, sexy and cool. All styled by the talented duo that is Pella Hedeby and Marie Ramse. Mwah!

Seems that not a week goes by without a perfectly styled Swedish home.

This one has been set in scene by Josefin Haag, interior stylist and blogger at Swedish Residence Magazine. She has recently become part of the Fantastic Frank team and I can’t wait to see what they’ll come up with next. If you like Josefin’s style check out her blog 20kvadrat and follow her Instagram feed for glimpses of her latest work.

In the meantime sit back and enjoy the details, soft tones and pastels of this gorgeous apartment oozing a calm and mesmerizing atmosphere.

SMALL SPACES | SWEDISH HOME FOR SALE

30 March 2015

small spaces, swedish home for sale, decor, interior design, style, styling, trend, calm, minimal, monochrome, neutral, colour palette, relaxed, uncluttered, design conscious hipster, living, home, jonas berg, photographer, estate agents stadshem

Ah, how we all love those Swedish Homes For Sale that flood our (my!) Pinterest feed and nobody makes them look better than photographer Jonas Berg. Actually, I’m not sure if he styles the homes himself but they must sell like hot cakes with their minimal, monochrome look and calm mainly white colourpalette – oozing relaxed, uncluttered living for design conscious hipsters.

It’s incredible that this apartment is only 36m2 and yet looks positively spacious though bed-and living room is merged into one even including a little work station. I think it really helps that the kitchen is separate with enough space for a table. I love the wide and inviting hall with the dark wood panelling and different height hooks giving lots of space for coats, jackets, bags and all the other accessories I never seem to have enough room for.

And what about all that wall art!? I could rip the entire collection off… *swoon*

A CHEFS HOME

27 March 2015

In the house of an award winning chef you’d expect the kitchen to be the central point. Tommy Myllymäki has taken it one step further and advises to treat your kitchen like a professional with crockery and plates closest to the counter, ‘firestation’ to the left and two refrigerators, one for daily items like dairy and the other for less frequently used items.

The shots are via Swedish Residence magazine and accompany an in-depth interview with the celebrity chef who not only won Chef of the Year in 2007 but has written two books ‘Sauces’ and ‘Natur & Kultur’. He’s also had appearances on Swedish TV and consults for as well as co-owns several gastronomic venues.

As I can’t read Swedish I was taken by the soft palette of naturals and pastels used in his home and the quirky details like the distressed headboard in the bedroom and the huge neon sign above the clothing rail. Check out the DIY coffee table made from an old door with swivel wheels stuck on – so simple yet effective and unique. The photographic print above the dining table is by Charlie Drevstam who worked with him on both his books and is a phenomenal photographer – more on him tomorrow.

Happy Friday y’all.

INDOOR OUTDOOR LIVING IN MELBOURNE

23 March 2015

It’s Monday! And it’s officially Spring so let’s kick the week off with some eye candy from sunny Australia.

Rob Mills are the interior architects responsible for the sleek and contemporary finish in these Melbourne apartments and I just adore the way the indoor and outdoor seamlessly connect with floor to ceiling glass panels and sliding doors.

The neutral colour palette not only shows off immaculate finishes of the natural materials used but poses a calm counterbalance to the different greens and foliage peeking through from the outside.

And what about the bedroom!? I’m sure that view will give you the sweetest dreams. Hurry up summer I long for some indoor outdoor living. #impatient
