Still Looking For The Right Home Desk #3.

I still haven't found what I'm looking for, a beautiful tinny home desk. These following two are quite nice.

This Scandinavian desk has everything I want: sleek design, small drawers and a nice wooden combination. Size wise would fit perfectly next to my table lamp.

What grabbed my eye on this one was indeed the wooden color and the top detail above the drawers. These are too wide, though the lack of handles and feet, as if it's floating, balance pretty nicely the design.
Check the lamp on the wall. Nice touch, isn't it?

Maybe soon I'll do a Flea Market trip. I have a feeling I'll find it there.

Touchy Colors.

Even though I decided to go white on my new flat, I'm still deciding which color or colors I'm going to pick for details. This year I'm totally drawn to pure green and blue, though I can't decide if I'm going to pick just one.

Different Green Shades?

Blues & Greys?

Mix & Match!

Knowing myself and what I like to be surrounded by, I think I'm deciding on mix and match several colors and patterns. I think it better reflects my personality.

Which color are you?

Life Is Beautiful.

Do you have a life moto? I do. It is simply: life is beautiful.

Have a nice weekend.

Art Walls

At this moment I have all my flat art either on the corner waiting to be hanged somewhere or rolled up inside a plastic tubes waiting for the right frame. I miss looking at them.

Dressing up walls is one of my favorite moments on styling a home. Here's a few inspiration pictures I've found online.

I like the clean aesthetics which give that serenity I like to feel in a bedroom.

A collage framed. Interesting, isn't it?

A good solution when we don't hang the frames on the right spot, is to fill the gaps with other things like jewellery.

I've a few photos I shot, though I'm not sure if I'm going to frame them or just glue them on the walls, something I do since I was a kid.

Tulle Is My Choice.

Fabrics are always a very important choice to make when it comes to the house. Silk? Velvet? Cotton? Taffeta? Tweed? What's the best fabric to let the room breath? What's the best texture to match the accessories? What's the warmest and fresher fabric for winter and summer? Have you thought of it?

I've always loved tulle. It's very sexy, yet elegant. Naive sometimes. So much to say about this delicate material.

I've spent a few days thinking what I am going to chose for my living room and finally decided - TULLE. I think it'll bring the romance and movement I'm looking forward to having in my new home.

Here's some of my moodborad pictures I want to share with you.

Home Desk #2.

Today I've decided what I'm taking to my new home. As I said, I'm very up to have a whitish space. Only one very old chest of drawers in wood (belonged to my granny) will be part of the scenario.

Though, I'm still missing a desk, a tiny desk to fit on a meter long wall in my living room. This one here by Anita Nevens is perfect for my laptop, my endless notebooks and colorful pens.

To make it more cosy, a pile of magazines next to it would do it, don't you think?

And on the other side, a plant! A plant with deep green leaves! Perfect.

Storage Ideas.

Yesterday, after a day at the beach, I started packing my things. Books mainly.
Today, after another day at the beach, I don't have enough energy to move boxes around, furniture and clothes, so I excused myself to surf on the internet to find some inspiration on how I am going to storage my things in a tiny living room. It's not going to be an easy job, I'm sure.

I like the mix and match colors and textures on this space, plus I am a big fan of boxes not only to storage but to decorate too.

White Is Growing On Me.

Times change and taste gets refined, maybe that's why white is growing on me.

More than ever I can see myself living in a white flat.

This one here is a nice inspiration. I love flowers and plants, they make spaces alive and fresh.

I've always loved to see white frames and canvas on white walls.

Chesterfield.

A Chesterfield is probably the most wanted sofa ever. A few years ago I was walking in Portobello Market in London and there was one for sell. Deep green. I'm sure many years old (as I like them), perfect size and the best price ever - £100. I didn't buy it! I just didn't have the storage space and it wouldn't fit in my space. Sadly I had to let go the bargain.

When I started looking for a flat, I imagined a certain space with a certain view and certain furniture. That green Chesterfield was on my moments of imagination. Maybe soon I'll find another one. Who knows?

Last week I shot this one at Heal's. It is quite nice too, isn't it?

More Chesterfields

...in Cologne
and soon one in Lisbon.

Notes On Cheap & Nice Solutions.

What a nice idea for small bedrooms. Definitely something that I have to bear in mind.
