From me to you – a round of interesting interior scenes! There’s something intriguing about this porch, for some reason I’m drawn to it… And the tiny home office below is like something out of a fairy tale. A mystery vibe only dark dramatic walls can create.

I don’t know about you, but to me these sofa/living areas below are very appealing. The first is an exercise in interior design well done. The perfect symmetry, the colour balance, texture..and the play with scale. It hadn’t been at all this interesting if it weren’t for the undersized chair. And of course the stool and the lovely lovely flowers. The last pic is just beautiful. Again, summer loveliness!

Hepp, I got a second summer house! In my mind…that is. A green oasis and energy booster retreat! It has the loveliest windows (above, via igotasweettooth), cool details such as the vintage lamp (via etsy) and loads and loads of fresh flowers and lively popping colours:

And of course, a huge huge garden, almost a forest. With some seating areas here and there.

Mm, that’s my summer hideaway!

I never promised you a rose garden! I (Trendey) is a bit on the offline side at the mo. All work, no play.

This lovely photo – with the afternoon tea menu on the table cloth – comes from Norwegian magazine LevLandlig. And so does the beautiful summery interior scene below…Again, it’s like a summer house dream!

I love patios and verandas with an indoor feeling – i.e., decorated outdoor rooms! I really long to have one roomy outdoor space. Our little balcony isn’t much to decorate and we are also limited by some rules, e.g. do not attach anything to the facade, and if we want a protective textile around the balcony it needs to be in the most boring shade of blue (to unify and ‘match’ the house). So, I stick to flower pots and planting some seeds and just keep dreamin!

There is lots more to say about outdoor decor. One irresistable track is tropical walls. The warmth, joy and strength that bright colours radiate can not be described in words. So I have collected a few pics.
