Lamps

Hello, dear readers! I really hope you had a fabulous weekend! Did something the same fabulous happen to you during these 2 short days? Please share it in your comments :).

I’ll start my week by posting about light (again) and particularly about lamps: table lamps, floor lamps and just cute masterpieces! We all need light, whether it’s natural (which is the best) or artificial given by lamps. Nowadays, designers are so creative that they can impress and fulfill the tastes of any person!

Light+Colors

Oh, I need this mix! And if to be more precise, I meant some gorgeous rooms I stumbled upon some time ago. I just didn’t ever get to them more seriously, but now I thought I’d sneak a peek and just hope you’ll like them as  much as I do! You know I have a crush on rooms with lots of sunlight and bright (or not) colors, well, the images are the perfect ones as they express both: brightness and color. What can I say? I’m in love with them and I’ll always be :).

Reading about New York Interiors…

That’s right, you guessed! My new design book is all about New York Interiors and I just love it! I’ve finished reading about London Interiors and I was really impatient to see what New York will bring me. Later I’ll be posting some of my favorite images from the book, so stay tuned!

Is somebody else reading this or maybe read it before? What are your impressions?

Urban aka Modern Country

And that’s exactly the mix of styles I want for my future home! You know I was often navigating through different styles and designs and guess what, today while I was enjoying my new design book (upcoming post – stay tuned!) I finally pictured in my mind the future home and it turned out being decorated in a modern country way. And actually it looked pretty charming and inviting. So, the following images are exclusively pictures I would consider inspirational for my future home and I think they worth being seen :)

And a bit more of vintage

And again a blog post related to kitchen. This time we’ll be safely drowning in vintage style and if to be more precise, in vintage houseware. I must confess something to you, my friends, I’m so sorry for not having anything from my grandparents’ or even grand-grandparents’ homes (it just happened that at that time I was too young to realize I love vintage), that would’ve been so huge treasure of vintage stuff, I would be the happiest. I guess it just wasn’t meant to be and I should be picking up vintage now, whenever I have the opportunity to get one. So, vintage in the kitchen:

Inspiration for living room

Who thinks that the living room is one of the most important in the house? Alright, I see you! And I agree with you! Besides bedroom (that turns to be the most important), the living room has the role of gathering friends and family and it definitely should be inviting, warm and cozy, don’t you think so? I’ve been attracted by nice living rooms lately, so I searched for them,of course.  Just to check some styles and designs…That’s what I’ve found:

Color+Inspiration: Fuchsia

And who doesn’t love fuchsia? Impossible not to love it as it’s such a cheerful color, full of life. I would place fuchsia next to turquoise and yellow in my list (you know last two are my favorites, right?). So for a brighter spring and a happier life I recommend using fuchsia as the main color for your space. Oh, you need inspiration? Here it comes:

Thumbs up for Rie Elise Larsen

You’ll ask who’s Rie Elise Larsen? I didn’t know them until today, when I saw it on Decor8 and yes, this store took my heart. I’m starting to think that Danish designers are more than just talented, they have the taste of style as a gift from up there and now I can’t help myself than just love this store, adore it and enjoy it! Well and hope that one day I’ll have the honor to go shopping there :).

Hello once again, friends! Hope you had a great start of the week! I would like to share with you now a home that certainly completes my list of my dream homes.

Decorated with white, it seems so perfect, I adore both the design and details of the home. Take a look:

Bright colors in the kitchen?

Yes, please! I realized that life is all about colors, brighter the colors, more cheerful the life :). So why not to have bold bright pinks and blues everywhere, including kitchen? Great idea, huh? And yes, I know that colors are of pretty personal taste, but let me tell you one thing, the best therapy for me is the color therapy, just makes me feel alive! So why don’t give it a try (at least imaginary)? Here is something to make it easier:
