Back to work

Finally back home after a long lazy summer. It is always nice to come home to your own house after being away. I love walking up on our stairs where this Bruno Munari Falkland lamp, a wedding gift, hangs. (photos by Leyla Pope)

This week I randomly love...

Outdoor furniture

What else can one do when it has been raining for weeks but to dream about outdoor living? I can totally see myself lounging in any of these settings by Spanish outdoor furniture company KETTAL.

A house full of paintings

"Yoga of Dressing" in the living room

"Fair Play" in the bedroom

"Master and Margarita" in the stair case

I had the pleasure to have the Nora Soos paintings for a short month in my house. It was fantastic! They will leave on Saturday to go back home so, few more days to check them out here or live at my house.

My favorite flowers

Today I received a bouquet of my favorite flowers from dear husband - pink peonies (I had to google the name). They are simply beautiful. And they fit well with the painting by Nora Soos "Every day meditation"(on sale until mid June).

You have to be very brave to live in a glass house...  And you have to be very lazy to enjoy nature from the comfort of your couch :-)

The Exhibition

Setting up the first day

I thought I had to document the great success of the Art and Jewelry exhibition last week (24-28 April). We had lots of fun, met some amazing people and shared and sold some fabulous art and jewelry. You can still look and buy the paintings on the ide&oda website and the jewelry on Bahina's website. 

Nóra Soós

If you by any chance have missed the reason why my blog is so quiet lately.... come to the exhibition I am organizing for my dear friend, Nóra Soós, an amazing young artist! More info on the exhibition taking place next week (24-28 april) on ide&oda. Below are two photos of my living where one of her the colorful chess themes adorns the main wall (I am showing this even if I know the cushions and accessories are are wrong... ;))

House by the river

A friend recommended a book called New Natural Home by Dominic Bradbury. It's full of amazing houses that are "thoughtfully design and sensitively built",  has a low energy use, are "long-lasting" and with a respect for the landscape and the environment. This house in the UK by architect John Pardey is rather spectacular... including the flooding.

Swedish design at its best

I have been admiring Claesson Koivisto Rune, a Swedish multi-disciplinary architecture and design firm for a long time. This is just a small selection.... visit their website for more: www.ckr.se.

Oh my deer, when will you be satisfied? It's Ok. Je ne regrette rien.

My lamps from Lyon and other things

Here are some images of our living room... I got the lamps in Lyon (at Marché de la Mode Vintage) and they were red... The bottom drawing "The star catcher" is by Rodrigo Pareja  and the funny men boxes are by Yllekalsong.
