Cosy Winter.

A chuva veio para ficar. O frio faz-lhe companhia. Altura ideal para todos nós entrarmos em "retreat mode", uns sozinhos, outros nem por isso.

Em qualquer dos casos, encontre aquele objecto cosy que lhe trás o aconchego necessário, como por exemplo, uma pele de ovelha (sintética) num tom terra.


Tons Terra | Ajudam a criar ambientes de bem-estar, tranquilidade e calma. São as cores mais quentes da palete, e sempre boas escolhas para épocas frias, como o Outono e Inverno, ou para espaços e ambientes mais húmidos, como por exemplo casas de campo ou praia.

Romantisk Helg I Norge.

Norway has probably the most romantic houses in Scandinavia. I not quite sure if it's because the daylight is so scarce, but the spaces really call for romantic environments.

Here's a few ideas for cold and rainy days we all expect ahead. Cosy is the new black.

furs are always welcomed in cold winter days
fell in love with these crochet placemats  
pastels on the background enhances pretty nicely white furniture, doesn't it?
rusty iron lamps 
big dinner tables for big friends
romantic as it should be 

Scandinavian Design.

Depending on the country, languages are different though they all come one from another. For example, I got to know yesterday, Student in Norwegian Student (Estudante in Portuguese, my first language). All very similar, though with different accents.

Design is a language too, therefore, and depending on the country, the "accents" are different. From Asian to European, American or Arab, you can tell by the look where it is come from, don't you?

Scandinavian Design is probably my favorite language. It embraces simple traces and organic look, though it's the colour and the textures that actually defines all the details and maybe that's why I feel so comfortable with this language.

Ligne Roset @ Rue du Bac.

Ligne Roset has the stylish sofas I've ever seen. They're comfy for sure, but what I really love about them is the personality they emanate, like a french woman riding a bike along the Seine.

Here's my selection form the Rue du Bac main shop, where trendy people mingle and design is written all over the place.
