Afternoon tea at the Rug Company

Yesterday we were having afternoon tea at The Rug Company. They were launching their new book, with a lot of beautiful pictures of all their rugs.

Dylan Martorell

Dylan Martorell is an artist and musician, originally from Scotland but now living in Australia. Martorell He describes his style as ‘fourth world psych exotica,’ a magpie junkyard aesthetic clearly influenced by his travels in North Africa, South East Asia, Japan and Mexico. We love his simple but very imaginative drawings.

Ferry Staverman

We first saw these beautiful tree-dimensional sculptures at Designboom. They are made by Dutch artist Ferry Staverman out of recycled cardboard material. They are just amazing.

Longing

This is a picture of one of Tricia Guilds studios. We can’t exactly say that ours look the same right now. We are in the middle of finding a place to produce our ceramic – and it is really hard work. Therefore we send envious looks to Tricia Guilds creative paradise.

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.

Turi Heisselberg Pedersen

We love the talented ceramist Turi Heisselberg Pedersen. Her sculptural vessels are just beautiful with an elegant use of color. See more contemporary ceramic at Køppe gallery

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.

Wouter Dolk

The world famous Dutch flower artist and designer Wouter Dolk has created a new, home décor collection for Royal Copenhagen called The art of giving flowers. The collection consists of unique vases and wall reliefs in porcelain. Wouter Dolk is particularly well-known for his hand-painted wallpaper, which we love.

Weddings

It is a bit embarrassing, but I have a secret passion for weddings. – Although I don’t want to get married myself. I love everything about it. The love theme, the beauty, the dress, the flowers, the food, the music…

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.

Rebuilding the house

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.
