Hello Hello! How are you all doing? I really hope that your time at home works out ok for you. We are ok over here but I have to say that my days are really filled with home schooling and there is not much left for work.

Most projects and events have been postponed anyway, but even writing an article is tricky. And I admit – I did not anticipate that. Moreover, I thought that I could squeeze in a bit of work here and there.
But hey, it is what it is and we are staying positive. We have food, we are healthy, and we even have a garden. All good!

Therefore, whenever I manage to publish something I feel a little proud. And since I do not feel very inspired to bringing you things to buy and so on I am focusing more on interiors. Because they can really lift a mood and give you a little kick. Plus, they might inspire a little project in your own four walls. Remember the art prints for kids, a really cool way to give a room a new and quick new look.

But let’s talk about todays interior! This industrial nursery with warm Scandinavian undertones is so full of personality. Please come in:

Little Lila is living in Leytonstone, London together with her parents Claire Brennan, a fashion stylist, and George Chapman, an automotive content strategist.

It is a four-story Victorian semi home with high ceilings, lovingly collected mirrors and furniture, timeless investment pieces, and  a warm-industrial vibe with a Scandi twist. All over you will find plenty of blacks and grays alongside whites and light blues.

And Lila’s room? “We wanted her room to retain the character and personality that we’d tried to create throughout the house.”

My favourite nook in her room is the fireplace. Perfect spot for decor, and with the chipped and original green paint it gives the room a lovely charm.

Sharing some more corners of this interesting home. Which is a true family house with little toys and kids paintings here and there.

Claire and George did most of the necessary renovations and extension by themselves. And they exposed or renovated as many of the original features as possible. For example the floorboards and door frames are all original. And the slate fireplaces on the ground floor come from George’s parents’ converted pigsty in Somerset!

Come in and dream! Yes. Dream! This beautiful townhouse in London is such a great mix of styles and interesting ideas. Plus a very cool colour scheme throughout the property.

Starting in the basement with a pink kitchen, moving upwards into green, and turning blue like the sky when stepping into the children’s rooms.

The decoration is both design and traditional, and combines the traditional Regency style of its time with a design extension to the garden, featuring a living area and an open kitchen. The house was restored and refurbished by its architect-owner for his family.

Come and have a look inside this creative Regency style family townhouse in London:

I enjoy seeing that the old historical details have been preserved and the combination with modern design, when done right, enhances the end result. Old and new blend together, we can find modern steel features, exposed brick walls, wooden floors, and a kitchen out of a decor magazine.

Holly Grove is the most distinctive part of the conservation area, characterised by a rigorous building line of paired and terraced villas in which strong and simple brick details are used to create a steady rhythm of vertical elements.”

The house has five bedrooms and is situated in Holly Grove. A residential street in Peckham, buzzling with cafes, boutiques and restaurants. Plus it is a lovely green and family friendly area as well.

Ever dreamed about a pink kitchen? You might after this one! What an impressive open-plan lower-ground floor kitchen and living space which opens fully to the garden through glazed doors.

Loving the exposed bricks and curved archway.

The house is very bright, somehow playful, and definitely very welcoming. I would absolutely love to have a cup of tea in that kitchen…

We are heading all the way down to Australia for some delightful children’s rooms today. Bright, fresh, and perfectly designed for little people to hang out, be creative, and to enjoy sweet dreams.

You will discover one spectacular playroom that is so inviting and fun – I want to move in.

By the way, are you ready for Easter or has it vanished from your ‘list’ with everything else going on? We will definitely do an Easter Egg Hunt in our little garden and the kids are already so excited. And after that we will enjoy a brunch. Normally we do invite friends over but this year we have to skip that tradition. Positive note: More food for us. Ha!

But lets come back to this week’s interior gem and all the amazing playroom ideas to take away from here:

Since I am still receiving messages about the amazing wallpaper. The wallpaper is available here.

And? Amazing right?

And do you remember the elephant chairs and the fun here?

I think it is fair to assume that a little boy is sleeping in this pretty nursery. And yes, it is a very ‘clear gender’ attribution however with the size of the room, lovely light, and white furniture I am still enjoying it very much!

Oh lord. The place I am showing you today had me at first sight. It is a rather small space but the use of space and colour palette make it so stunning. I am truly in love and want to redecorate right away.

This unique attic has a special atmosphere, some Art Nouveau soul, and a whole lot of character.

The colour palette is based on a landscape photograph from Oman by the photographer Chiara Zonca. The pale pine floor became the sand, the pink shifts in the sunset dunes became walls and moldings, dark shadows in rock formations became the bedroom’s dark red and black details. And the ceilings were painted in pigeon blue.

But the best part is how the colours play out during the day. Starting the days in warm golden light and getting more cosy during the darker hours of the evening.

In short: It is amazing and I will let the pictures speak for themselves:

The kids room is the cutest. Sitting right under the roof with every inch carefully used and means the little one literally falls asleep under stars here. And there is plenty of space for playing, sleeping, storing and growing.

A velvet sofa in mustard with a wall full of books. My kind of heaven!

Usually I select the interiors I show here based on their children’s rooms. Which was the case here too, however the star is the kitchen for me. I just love it. I love how they did the lighting, the black that gives it more the impression of being a piece of furniture than a kitchen. And that window with the deepest window sill I have ever seen. So pretty!

Altogether the combination of the wall colour, the mustard sofa, and black cabinets is so interesting. What do you think?
