Sofiero and Svenskt tenn





Went to Sofiero in Helsingborg in Sweden this weekend. There is an amazing garden and a lot of fun for the kids. And as a nice surprise for me, there was an exhibition with the swedish artist Cilla Ramnek and Svenskt Tenn, I just felt so lucky.

Courageous colors





Found this beautiful home on the net. We are both in the middle of redecorating our homes so we are looking for inspiration everywhere. And this home certainly inspires us. It is beautiful, poetic and with a courageous use of dark color. Try Farrow & Ball for beautiful paint.

I love all kinds of weddings. Here is a bit of inspiration for the romantic type.

How often can we show this genius.





As some of you probably know the textile designer Josef Frank is one of our absolut heroes. Josef Frank made these textile in the 50'ties, but they are still ulta modern. Take a look at all his beautiful designs sold through Svensk Tenn.

Round about this time last year we did a major rebuilding on our house.
Now the light is poring in though the windows, making me so happy.

La Roque sur Ceze





La Roque sur Ceze is my favorite little village. This is where I dream to have my little medieval house with a view of the ‘Cascades du Sautadet'.

Sofia has had a purple period for a long time now, where she would only wear purple clothes. On this holiday I packed her bag with new dresses in lots of different colors so she had no choise. The red dress is from
H&M.

My fathers hut in Provence





We are back from holiday full off energy and ready to attack the design world.
This week’s posts will all be about our holiday memories and the makeovers we have done at home.
As my father is French we spend time in Provence every year. Here are pictures from his lovely primitive hut in the mountains. – As you can see he is still an old hippie.
