Fancy chocolate apartment in Sweden

Dark colors in your apartment are impossible? It makes a room too dark? Too small? To narrow? Too boring? Say again, what?

Have a look at this gorgeous chic apartment in Sweden. Different tinges of brown and just a little white make the interior very modern and really cool! There are many colors but they all are very well combined. Details of natural wood and pop-art pictures look great in the context of chocolate walls

Loft with art and many more details

This two-leveled loft by designers Fernando Tapia and Monica Andina is located in Madrid, Spain. It has a typical Spanish national coloring – it’s full of art.

Concrete and metal constructions are covered with tender interior colors and vintage furniture. There are portraits, pictures and even decorations on the walls – ants like on the pictures of Salvador Dali. The minimalist colors – white and light grey – are softened by the accessories and comprise a nice frame for the art objects.

Industrial design loft

Do not be afraid! Use the natural beauty of the building. It can be bricks, wood, cement, whatever your house has. 

This loft has already been a local stables, a bomb shelter and a print shop. All of that added its character to the building and the new owner was not afraid to use it to make it his home. A lot of people are afraid to  use raw materials thinking the house would become too industrial and not cosy. This house proves that there is no need to be afraid of that! 

I just LOVE this bedroom and its closet!

Equilibre Interiors - warm, international interiors from Amsterdam

Couple of days ago the November issue of one of my favorite magazines - The Residence was delivered again. The issue has a beautiful cover. Warm interior, with a lot of wood elements, beautiful materials and  fire place. 

The design of the house appeared to be from a Dutch designers duo - Scarlett van Ketwich Verschuur  and Toscha Gast-van Randwijck from Equilibre Interiors.

The article in The Residence is very inspiring! Telling about the way the designers work,  the contacts and relationship that they build during their work with their clients. 

And how the ladies were not afraid to start their business, and just jumped into it! with no fear and not looking back. Now, ten years later, the duo has projects all over the world and has the opportunity to work with the best brands, best materials, best houses...

Interior designer: Ruth Káradóttirs - Island

Today I would like to tell you about an Island designer - Ruth Káradóttirs. Her interiors are inspired by Island nature. White an more white. 

I have found an article telling about the work and inspiration of Ruth. I love to read what inspired an artist. What makes him think of certain things and where do they get their inspiration from.

The house from 1968 is located in Breidholt which is one of the oldest suburbs to Rejkavik. White is the continuous color choice, only broken here and there by a little gray-brown elements like wood and concrete floors and wooden terrace outside.

 I prefer the natural materials and blends like the raw materials with more elegant says Ruth. Nature's own materials tend to only become more beautiful with age. And so do I like nature's own color scale set by the multifaceted nature of the picture here on the Island, from the snow into the lava, the hot springs and mountains.

- The light is very important to create the right atmosphere and it is one of the most important I try to create even for my clients, explains Ruth. Since we live so far north of here on the Island, we are fortunate with a lot of light, especially in summer when it is bright around the clock. But in winter it is only about six to seven hours a day and these conditions are important to take into account when building and planning their home here
