Room for a boy

My never ending project is my sons room. We have bougt the colour and built the shelfs but then our energy ended and nothing more has been done. So, hopefully I will get started soon again to finish what will be Axels own space (even if he thinks the whole house is his to sprinke toys all over). The base will be white and pale aqua with accents in bold colours. My nex DIY will be to make posters for the walls and hopefully Axel will help me. Or maybe I paint some tires and turn them into a table. To be continued...

Finnish graphics

Sorry for my blog silence but long days at the beach have kept me from my computer and I can´t think of a better excuse right now...

Althoug when I found this home I could not resist to show you. Homes from Finland tend to have a clean, graphic style, at least that is my conclusion from fishish bloggs (have unfortunally never been to Finland). I really like their estetics and this lovely home is no exception. It´s Suki, the owner of the finish blog Varpunen, who just moved in to their new home and this is what it looks like. I love the black and white mixed with some bright blue and red. If I can get ahold of that red apple, I´m a happy girl.

Friday mix

I wish you all a lovely friday!

Yes, please

Yes, I would like a bookshelf by Charlotte Perriand at Atelier Jean Prouvé, made in 1953. I have written before about my favorite chairs, also made by Perriand. She was a brilliant French architect and designer, who worked, among others, at Le Corbusier’s studio.

Built-ins

I quite like the idea of built-ins. A customized "wall" for the fireplace, TV, books or other items. My husband and I have an obsession with hiding wires and stuff, so building walls like this is the perfect way of just showing the things you want to see.
