Eclectic Interior

The owner of this wonderful eclectic apartment is a photographer and interior designer, Benedikte Ugland. This very personal space is decorated with great details such as raw concrete, modern plexiglass furniture, vintage and industrial pieces. I love the contrast of the black flooring and counters, against the white walls and tiles in the kitchen. 

Who says you can not mix styles! What do you think of this space?

Enjoy!

California Cottage

It is summer and there is nothing better than being at the cottage, especially when it is decorated all in white (so fresh and relaxing) This wonderful cottage, featured in House Beautiful, has all the right elements. Plenty of space, beautiful decor and a fabulous view on the water!

Check these amazing buoy lights used as ceiling fixtures!

Great window coverings and the bench seat doubles as a bed. 

Love the chalkboard on the front of the island!

Cool white icebox refrigerator.

French linen bed cover is amazing.

Root table and sink in the Master bedroom.

Built in bunk beds are great for guests!

Happy Monday to all!

Enjoy,

Ikea Style

Ikea is the King of all that we love in Scandinavian design, and at a price that is affordable for many people (no I don't work for Ikea!). I came across a website called Ikea Family Live and it shows how families have put together their homes with product from Ikea. 

This couple has 4 small children and live in an all white house so it is true that living in white, even with kids, can be easy! (I know, I lived in white with a young family. Slipcovers are key!). I love this style of home with clean lines and the consistent use of white throughout all the rooms.

How do you live with white in your home?

Enjoy,
