A little inspiration for the weekend: Lovely Melbourne Home

I found this house on the lovely website The design files. This is the home of the australian florist Katie Marx. Love the huge blossom branches and the painting of the videotapes. This piece of art is made by Dane Lovett. It's a funny and light interior, you shouldn't take life to serious anyway :-)
Have a great weekend!

A little colour in your life...

I really like this pink room, it think it will have a positive influence on your mood. I don't think I will ever try this at home, but maybe in a project....
These spaces are done by Stylist Lo Bjurulf, nice work & very inspirational.

DIY inspiration: I made felt blossom!

When the example of the DIY felt flowers on the website De Geranium I fell in love and ordered the package immediately.  I'm actually not a needlework type but it was worth trying... Most of the flowers weren't that difficult and I actually enjoyed making them. A few days ago I went into the woods with a few colleagues during our lunch break to find a branch and I attached the flowers on it and here is the result!
I'm really happy with it, it looks like spring!!!

Industrial style interior design

I found these nice pictures on the website of the Australian magazine Inside out, great combinations of vintage and new things to get the right look! Industrial but not cold...
 It seems like a great magazine to me, but unfortunately I haven't seen it anywhere in Amsterdam or at the airport. Luckily they have such a great website and blog to see the highlights....

Inspirational use of colour and material

I really like the contrast between the dark blue wall with the light grey sofa. It really works with the green accessories, wood and light floor.

Surprising spaces

I'm not really into children's rooms (maybe because I don't have one :-). But that's what I like about these spaces, they don't look like the stereotype children's room and it looks really friendly and inviting, but not so childish....
I love the use of colour combined with the wood and what a lovely vintage chair!
Funny detail, I bought the exact same rabbit lamp for one of our meeting rooms at the office, it's almost finished and I will post pictures when it's done...

I love the Kelim

I have not always loved Kelims, when I was little we had a very large Kelim hanging on a wall at home. I thought it was weird to have a rug on the wall, nobody else had such thing....But now I can really appreciate it and it's still hanging in my parents home. I would love to have one on the floor in the future when I have a different sofa. I now have a rug, a bit like a Kelim, it's not colorful, but only black & white, see the last picture.
