Behind the form | New works by Fino Prydz

  For those who follow for some years know that one of my most beloved artworks at home is made by Norwegian visual artist Fino Prydz. Inscribed with his minimalist vocabulary and abstracted forms, Prydz’s paintings display a sensibility towards colour and a subdued palette is used to focus on the natural materials such as lime, […]

An electric fireplace for my home | Dimplex Optimyst

Living in an 80ties apartment with central heating I have missed the focal point of a fire place from day one! I grew up with a coal fireplace, and had a gas fire later on, until moving into my current apartment. Of course I can’t deny I love the luxury of central heating but especially […]

Renovation stories | A new bench and lamp for the kitchen

  Making plans for my home and make it more and even more the place I love, is something that is always in the back of my head. I still work on my Masterplan and staying at home more often, certainly keeps me busy. With every change at home I always think about the bigger picture […]

Minimal IKEA Hack with KOAK design | Pax cabinets upgrade

  Having stored most of my possessions to make room for plastering and painting, I was in no hurry to put things back. Like many of you I decluttered even more than I already did these last months and with things put away for so long it was a great moment to reflect and think […]

New images from my kitchen & a lamp made by ANOUR

Although you already saw some pictures we made in my kitchen for some collaborations earlier. I made a few more to show you my latest treasure, the ‘Divar’ lamp from Anour.

Minimal design at home | Philips TV x Bowers & Wilkins

On Instagram I already gave you a sneak peek of the bench I made the other week, I guess you loved it as much as I do, because I received lots of messages asking if I would share how to make one too. What I didn’t tell was that I made the bench especially for […]

Countertop ‘Keyla’ which I chose has an industrial and chic […]
