Styling idea: Composition of memories

Wanneer je een schaal of plateau gebruikt als basis voor je compositie van accessoires dan komen ze extra goed tot hun recht. Het kader zorgt ervoor dat je accessoires samen een geheel vormen. Kies een aantal items die je mooi vindt en die een verhaal vertellen. Speel met texturen, materialen, met hoge en lage elementen.

In mijn voorbeeld heb ik bijvoorbeeld een vaasje en een boekje wat ik tijdens een geweldig weekend in Parijs kocht, kwasten en potloden die ik tijdens mijn studie gebruikte en een mooie steen die ik als kind van mijn vader kreeg. Zo zie ik iedere dag dingen die me herinneren aan dierbaren en mooie reizen.

Veel plezier.

Ben je ook toe aan verandering in je interieur maar weet je niet goed wat bij jou en je interieur past? Ik kan je helpen met een persoonlijk interieuradvies. Kijk voor meer informatie op de website van mijn bedrijf Studio Nest  en voor projecten die ik gerealiseerd heb.

When you use a tray as a base for your composition of accessories in your interior it will come out very well. The frame makes that the accessoiries come out as a unity. Choose a few items that you love and tell a story. Play with textures, materials, high and low items.

In my example I used a vase and small book that I bought during a lovely weekend in Paris, brushes and pencils I used during my study and a stone I received from my father when I was little. I see these things that remind me of my loved ones and beautiful journeys.

Have fun.

My travel destination; Riad Bab el Moussafir, Marrakech

Styling idea: The round mirror

A great benefit of using a mirror in your interior is that it makes a room more spacious.  Beside this it is a beautiful object to decorate your home with. A round mirror is a bit less predictable  and a friendly form. What do you think?

Styling idea: decorative plates

A great styling idea is to create a composition of different plates, like these examples.
It's an easy way to create a personal creative wall.... You can make your own plates from papier mâché, update flea market finds with fluor washi tape or just choose only blue ones for your collection

Inspiring designer: Paola Navone

Visiting the fair Maison&Objet this weekend reminded me of what a wonderful and inspiring designer Paola Navone is. I met her once when I organized lectures at the Woonbeurs and I had to announce her, very exciting. She was very friendly and one of a kind.
I love the series she designed for Richard Ginori, the reinterpreted 1000kg of porcelain, that was for sale at Merci in 2009.

Below an interview from the Australian Inside Out Magazine with Paola Navone

Color Inpiration: The blues

What a nice example of how dark blue can work beautifully in an interior, it gives the space intimacy. I would prefer more wood in combination with the blue to add a bit more contrast.

Caravaggio matt from Lightyears


What a nice surprise that the Caravaggio pendant light is available in matt colors. It looks like concrete and in white like porcelain. So beautiful and a nice example what material can do. In my opinion the form becomes more elegant. Definitely on my wishlist to use it in a project.

Apartment with style

This apartment is my cup of tea! It's raw, graphic and elegant at the same time.  Love the bedroom wall where you can write you're great ideas you get at night or a romantic poem for your love.

Steel cabinets by JSPR

I'm really into steel cabinets lately. I love that you can make composition of your favorite things within a frame. This modern handmade interpretation by JSPR is just amazing! How the forms are attached to another it becomes a cabinet skyscraper…
Definitely a piece on my wish list.

Get inspired

This is definitely the most colorful room I ever designed. During a meeting you can write your great ideas on the pink walls or hang your paper sheets, so you don't need ugly whiteboards... I used vintage chairs from project 99
