Witch March approaching I had to think of last year’s day trip through Iceland, I still haven’t post any of the pictures I made and I think it is time to sort them out before the snow is melting… I have never seen Iceland not covered in snow and I really think I should…soon! I […]
How do you like the latest project by one of my favourite Australian interior designers Pamela Makin! Another apartment in striking black and white in Surry Hills, Sydney. If you have seen earlier projects of Pamela you will recognize the styling with different furniture and objects from Pamela’s studio and store Les Interieurs. Photographer Felix Forest […]
With a home in monochrome tones and replacing lots of white an greyish furniture by darker pieces lately, my home seems in a continuing state of transition. Maybe it is because of creating a space where I could experiment with colours but I feel attracted to darker earthy colours lately, nothing spectaculair as I am […]
I had to think about my dad who used to smoke Caballero cigarettes and the small brown package with wood print and cowboy on it when visiting Mama Kelly this last summer. I was asked by Bolia to write some blogposts about The Hague, like I did for Amsterdam, when Bolia opened the new store […]

And here is another […]
Planning to visit more fairs a nasty flue kept me home for a day or ten and made me change plans, luckily there is Instagram and there are plenty of bloggers reporting from the different fairs. At the blog of Pella I found a great report of the Trend exhibition by Lotta Ageton and these white pedestals in the ‘living’ caught […]
I first got to meet Pulpo at Maison & Objet some years ago and was really happy to use some of their furniture, a big trio table in white and a set of chiara tables around the couch and a few of their Oda lamps. Made out of a hand-blown glass body, and resting on a semicircle steel undercarriage the lamps, designed by Sebastian Herkner, spread […]
After reading lots of positive reviews, thank you so much! I think i can say that building an atrium filled with plants was a really good idea! Wow what an urban jungle it was at the back and let’s not forget to mention the air plants, according to imm the! most photographed item of the […]

New […]
Last weekend I visited Mono Japan, a cultural event at the Amsterdam Lloyd Hotel showcasing selected and lesser known products from Japan.
