I don't know how else to explain it.  I suppose you just need to see it for yourself!   Make sure you pay the bathroom a visit while you're there and tell us about it in the comments! Smith & Mills |  K R i S P I N T E R I O R ELLE Decoration UK has to be my favorite of favorites of magazines.  Their contributors are refined with stunning perspectives.  We can all learn a thing or two from the pros.  Photographer Maria Wretblad's home - styled Sasa Antic and captured by Kristofer Johnsson is utterly breathtaking.  

These still shots truly speak to me, and they resonate my interior desires for the moment.  I am loving the sharp contrast between my forever love white with charcoal greys.  The indigo hues may not be my first choice but it is undeniably stunning here.  The marriage between rounded edges versus sharp, vintage versus new, glossy versus wrinkled + textured…all equates to a gorgeous result.  clarissa black pencil pleat lined curtainsI am just blown away.home classics embroidered sheer voile curtain panel kelly Deborah Gordon of Ollie & Seb's Haus shares her top 10 tips on decorating in this month's Elle Decoration issue, I've never seen it narrowed down better than she did.  lowes hookless shower curtains

Believe me, it's almost as if reading the 10 commandments.  Write them down folks, use 'em! Source Ollie & Seb's Haus Learn from the Pros |   It's Monday -- let the ideas roll in... Okay, so it goes without saying that a larger kitchen with ample storage is always the dream.  I myself had said it in the past.  But deep inside I have this secret small kitchen of my dreams…  On my wish list is a tiny banquet eating area.  I love small spaces, and I adore how some people can be so clever about their use of space. Styled by Lene Rønfeldt, this little kitchen is flawless! Small Kitchen of my Dreams |I hope you are enjoying some time off.  It's a drizzly Sunday here in New York, and as usual it would be ideal for cozy lounging…  On a day like this I wish I had the safari cot of my dreams, or that wide daybed layed on a sprawling space like in Jutta's living room. I am a big fan of Finnish bloggers.  They have a really sharp, clean and krisp aesthetic!  

My favorites are Maja | Musta Ovi seen here and here, Minna Jones | Time of the Aquarius featured here and here, as well as Maiju | #lagerma recently shown here and previously on my Plateful of Love post.  I'm sure loads of you are fans as well. I can't get enough of their spaces, always awaiting their next move. Images via Projekti Verkaranta My Daybed Dream | Cruising the web this saturday morning, I find myself looking at houses fronting either a beach, the woods, or a creek.  October has come, it's exciting fall has arrived, but it's been a rather torturously busy month.  Feeling drained, my explanation is I'm longing for a short mini vacation… And with this weather, it would be nice to be in a home facing a wooded creek. This Australian beauty has my dream long wall of windows/doors, most likely facing a sloping land of forestry.  I can just imagine the scent every morning.  I took notice of the wonderful kitchen.  My dream is to have a kitchen in a galley layout, either in a true galley style and open on both ends, or one side is a full equal length peninsula facing a living room or views.  

The one wall could also just be all Crittal windows -- THAT would truly be the ultimate dream! The apartment is in the process of editing (as always), but the kitchen is one daunting challenge right now.  Though I love open storage, like in this stunning home, I've expressed how in NYC it could be annoying (the city soot floats in the air and can't be avoided).  I am completely swooned by how it is done here on one wall from top to bottom, and it inspires me to do the same.  Should I do it?? via The Style Files Wow, October has been a pretty hectic month!  I don't know how else to describe it. Work has been on overload mode,  and home tasks just the same.   At the moment projects and obligations are coming out of my ears.  Well that usually means inspiration is flowing and feeding the imagination. Let's kick off the week with an amazing marriage between Denmark and Spain.  Enjoy the tour of Danish label Tine K.'s Mallorca home.  I'm droolling over the traditional Spanish tiles!

Source The Style Files Inspiration Kick off on a Monday My white sofa is getting retired this season.  Luckily inherited a gorgeous number-- a Lotus sofa by Soft Line in dark grey.  It is slightly larger with a chaise, but will create that lounge-y atmosphere.  At the moment inspiration is abundant!  You know that means the laptop will be on blog overload as well as sinking into the black hole of pinterest this weekend.  My brain is calculating everything in the living area as we speak…  Here are a few of my finds: 1 / 2 / 3 /  4 /  5 Dark Sofa for Autumn It's been such a long wait!   I'm actually surprised it took this long for IKEA to launch shaker pegs/hooks in the range.   You've seen it this year circulating and used in many many different ways in the global IKEA Live sites.  Of course shown best by our Swedish heroes such as Pella Hedeby... I'm excited to install them in my kitchen!   Tiny apartments always tickle me even though an expansive space makes up anyone's dream house,  including mine.  

But deep inside I wish to live with minimal interiors and belongings. Fantastik Frank stages the best small spaces that I've seen.   Living with less truly is an art and a good way of living.   There's ways of tricking the eye as successfully shown here: A mirrored back splash Monochromatic scheme,  in this instance different shades of white Focus  only on one accent - shown here is copper Personal items stored behind closed doors Storage under the stairs Loads of natural light 'Tis the season for curling up.   Temperatures dropped this weekend and it was a beautiful change at home curled up under the covers! What perfect time for seasonality updates this time of year:  if you like colour it is that time for darker shades,  richer textures.   I myself prefer darker  monochromatic tones, but let's talk about you today.   This new IKEA NORSBORG sofa comes in a rich blue.   Perfectly matching dark wood shades and taupey greys.   As shown here with VALJE modular cubbies to mix in with your wall collage (see more of the VALJE collection here) .
