Back in the game

Ah, finally feeling good again! My body and the Indian food didn´t like eachother at the end so I´ve been feeling terrible the last couple of days but now I´m back to normal. Don´t misunderstand me; the Indian food is absolutly FANTASTIC, we just pick the wrong place the last night...

Today I´m all about the greys mixed with strong electric blue, bold yellow or hot pink. I think using colourful tape is a good way to accentuate the mood of the moment.

Neutral cravings

I just got back from the most fantastic trip to New Delhi, India. I´m in love with the place, the food, the generous people and the colours. But as I got home yesterday, all I could think of was the calm neutrals. I think I just need a pause from the colorexplosion I just experiensed. As soon as I sort out my 1500 photos from the trip, I´ll show you some of what I saw.

Black beauty

I just paid a visit to Stylist Bagge and found this little beauty that I just have to share. The Swedish architects at In praise of shadows have designed this black house. A mix between home and studio. I get the feeling it´s a hybrid between a barn and Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, a home with perfect walls and light for exposing art.

So, now I´m off to India on a business trip. Wish you all a great week and I´ll let you know when I´m back.

TOAST fall

TOAST is not giving us many surprises this fall but I still found some items that made me smile. I think the apron is really nice with the black details and I wouldn´t mind eathing breakfast on their plates and bowls. When the winter cold is joining us, I will be in desperat need for the grey blanket.

Drawings

When I went to design school, all we did was make fashion drawings. Now, in my daily work there is very little drawing by hand. Must pick it up again!

India

In a few days time, I will be going to India. It will be my first visit and I´m super excited. We´ll be working so I don´t know how much I acctually will see of New Delhi, but one of the days we´ll attend a big wedding so I´ll at least experiense a little of their culture. Have you been their? Any tips?

Autumn garden

I´ve spent all day in the garden planting all sorts of Japanese grass, cedar bushes and lots of succulents. It´s great to put our own taste and style into the garden, instead of the old plants that have been here since the 70´s. Next year we will make a small pond to add some water in the garden. I think it will be great.

Origami trend?

For some time now, origami have poped up in different shapes and different places. For a couple of days Frida Ramstedt at Trendenser was showing us her work and she is some what of a trendsetter in the Swedish interior world, so I predict we will see a lot of it in the future. I find it a beautiful way of recycle the newspaper or why not use an old book to make something unique.

Weekday Carnival

There has been a hype around the Finnish blog, Weekday Carnival, for some time now and I just have to join the fan club. I love the austere and clean esthetic expressions. Usually with a base in black and white, but always with a playful twist and a splash of colour. And lots of humour. So my tip to you, if you haven´t yet made an acquaintance with this blog, go visit it.
