Although I am a crusader for a homey style with lots of charm and knicknacks of personal choice, I’m inspired by this artful crispy white paper plus bright blue kitchen/dining decor scheme. It’s a cloudy soft movement in it.

This home, featured in Danish Boligmagasinet, is another variation of the popular ethno-eclectic, globetrotterish, style theme. In it’s base very Scandinavian, palish and raw, yet stylishly refreshed with the ethno-inspired textiles and details. Nice to see some pineapples again! I especially fancy the sofa corner. The bucket of flowers and the painting completes it.

Yesterday, I got myself a new chair. It’s called BOJNE and is irresistibly cute.

It bears some similarities with the Wishbone chair, and most of all – thanks for the note! – it’s ‘inspired by’ Wegner’s Elbow chair.  It gives me childhood memories. Think they had something like this in school, or maybe it was in the local church. Cute & comfy. Design by Nike Karlsson for IKEA.

And trendy, according to the latest issue of Italian Bravacasa. And also according to the CEO of Swedish Fashion Council. Personally, I cherish the ecofriendliness and ‘just grab a tree and cut a slice’ attributes of the stump-trend. The usage sofar is however somewhat limited (examples below) but as always, creativity can make anything happen.

I’ve been waiting for something interesting to show up in the interior design magazines. It’s been noticeable lull. Much of the same, nothing new really. Now finally, I found this inspiring look in Sköna Hem.

It’s a Scandi+industrial+alpine+folklore+nature marriage of a winter cabin! Reeking trendy! Aside from the dualtrendy black walls + wood, which in itself is a kind of fresh combination, the style has an interesting composition with the cozy materials, the unpolished and the urban details. Horns and hides are of course reasonable elements in a winter cabin, but it has almost never looked this appropriate and stylishly mixed.
