The home of an Australian stylist

Set on top of a hill in Brisbane, Australia, this beautiful home belongs to stylist Kara Rosenlund, her husband and flock of Pekin Bantam hens. Kara is a master at vintage finds which she then blends with contemporary pieces.  The space has such a summer time feel to it with it's soft hues, white pannelled walls and sunny veranda. Love this space!

I could live here, could you?!

I spotted a lot of beautiful round rugs like the one in the top picture on Etsy last night here.

This morning I'm preparing my home for  shoot. First stop IKEA! I do love a morning at IKEA, my Mum thinks I'm mad as the one in London is not really somwwhere you'd go to chill out.....but here in Southern Sweden it's totally different. I might just stop for a coffee and cinnamon bun in the cafe too!

Have a lovely day!

A breath of fresh air in Stockholm

This space in Stockholm by Folkhem is like a breath of fresh air. I love the light coloured wood together with the white and shades of grey.

I love the Scandinavian furniture they've chosen including the fab Under the Bell Pendant light (last picture) and the Around Coffee Table, both by Muuto. Using a Vitra DCW chair (15% off with code MYSCAN) in the sitting room is never wrong either!

If it were my home I'd have to add a few more pieces and mess it all up a little but the bones are definitely there. What do you say?

A fab black and white home in South Sweden

One of the best things about being on vacation (apart from the sand time of course :) is that when I get back the blogosphere is teeming with fabulous homes I've missed! Sorry if you've seen this one before but it's way to fabulous to miss! It's the home of stylist Sofia Odier and her photographer husband Nils Odier here in Southern Sweden. Loving the country and modern mix in monochrome and that oh so comfy indoor hammock!

I love all the vignettes with bell jars, apothecary bottles, fig trees etc and of course the wishbone chairs (currently on sale here)! I'll never tire of an eclectic mix of chairs around a dining table either and currently have my eye on the Thonet 214 chair to add to my mix.

I also absolutely love the edgy photography. Does anyone have any tips on where to buy cool photogaphy online?

What do you like about this home?
