We are starting weekend with grey and rainy day. 

I’m not sure if I’m ready to say by, by to Summer yet. 

The Scandinavian homes are so perfect cosy, warm and comfortable 

during Autumn/Winter time of the year ….

When I look at the new catalogue of by noord brand, 

I accully would not mind to stay there this few coming months. 

Have a nice and soft weekend. 

news from luckyboysunday

I’m not sure if I like more the new pillows or this great sofa from a new photo session of Luckyboysunday. 

Can I get both of them ? The new collection is called Blue Sunday and we can welcome some new friends in the luckyboysunday family. I really like this Danish brand designing very special cuddly, pillows, blankets, but unfortunately my boys do not share my enthusiasm, and ask me always why they have such sad faces…

You can see all new AW2104: luckyboysunday.

new for kids from ferm living A/W 2014

Be prepared for indians, arrows, wigwams, mountains and feathers in kids’ rooms. 

This theme in kids’ deco is already present, but the new collection of Ferm Living A/W 2014 doesn’t leave us with doubts that’s this trend is going to stay with us for longer. 

The Ferm Living collection is growing each season, and never disappoints me. The new online catalogue is just so good ! Have a look here. What’s new in kids department? Round carpets - dots, sticks and triangles. Simple and fresh looking and not so expensive. A lot of black-and white products : native and mountain new patterns on wallpaper and textile.  Wall flags with a Billy Bear, Hurray and arrows pattern. New Bear Pillows and we can’t forget Inka snake in Gray. What I always like so much about Ferm Living’s design for kids is that they are elegant, modern and not childish, it’s a pleasure to look an touch it. The photos are warm, playful and even though I’m not a pastel colours person, they just grab me, with their beautiful products. Well done! 

Aino-Maija Metsola for Marimekko

If you like graphic prints and strong patterns Marimekko brand from Finland is the one which you should have an eye on. 

I’m so glad to see the beautiful textile pattern from Aino-Maija Metsola called huhuli , used now for children bedding. Originally this textile pattern was much more darker and now she added a light blue and soft pink to it, and it looks so fresh. The rich wildlife found in the forests of Scandinavia, can be definitely used in a boy or girl room.  

Aino-Maija Metsola also designed the playful stationery and toys for

Marimekko Autumn/Winter 2014. 

K desk in black from rafa-kids

I did't plan to post or work these days….but when last week we got Rafa-kids K desk  prototypes in white and black, I just had to do something! 

The K desk in color looks so beautiful and so much different to me than natural one. My first feeling was to put this dark desk into a room with the white F bunk bed and add a splash of yellow color. Black color for a child's room might not be a first though of a parent, but I think with a touch of color this furniture piece looks so playful and cheerful. The good thing is, that when your child will enter the teenager faze of life, the K desk can easily find its place in a cool new room. Actually I would't mind to get this desk for my self! I hope you like what you see. Our Rafa-kids desk is not available yet, but the production will start very soon, and is going to be available at the beginning of October.

lost in space - thirza schaap

I'm back home after few days in France.  I will take my boys for another small trip next week and will be back after the 20th of August. It looks like there will be silence out here on the blog for a bit longer. I found this dreamy pictures made by Thirza Schaap, and thought that they illustrate my recent mood perfectly. I always find difficult to work when the days are so long, warm and inviting to relax.  Let's try to enjoy this sunny days we have in hands this Summer…..see you soon.
