Monochrome and cognac in a vintage inspired apartment

I hope you had a wonderful weekend? We've had real April showers here in Southern Sweden and as I write from my corner in a cafe by the sea this morning the rain is coming down in sheets outside, it's all very cosy! Indoors is the best place to be today -  and I have just came across this little gem on Stadshem. This two room apartment is teeming with vintage finds and mid-century pieces. I love the white, black and cognac colour scheme too, very lovely.








Stadshem

I can't take my eyes of that black gloss Smeg fridge! Anything that catches your eye?

I'm a huge fan of cognac, it can add real warmth to a colour scheme. Some of my favourite colour combinations include the blue and cognac mix in this pretty Swedish home, monochrome and cognac in this stunning Danish home and the grey and cognac in this apartment.

Have a lovely Monday!

PS Thank you to the wonderful Krisp Interior for featuring an interview with me over the weekend, I really enjoyed taking part!

The happy home of Johanna Flyckt Gashi

Friday calls for a relaxed, characterful home don't you think? This happy home fits the bill perfectly. It belongs to Swedish interior stylist and blogger Johanna Flyckt Gashi (the stylist behind yesterday's home), husband Luzim and their three children. Photographed by Lina Östling, the family cottage near Borås has been decorated using a wonderful mix of treasured vintage, antique and flee market finds. I particularly love how they've installed windows reclaimed from Johanna's Grandmother's farm between rooms.  I could spend hours looking at this space, couldn't you?

Anything that stands out to you in particular?

I've seen some images from this home before on Pinterest but never the entire house, thank you so much to Lina Östling for allowing me to share them! You can read the full article and see more pictures of Johanna's wonderful home at Hus o Hem.

If you're up for more inspiration you can find a whole host of Vintage inspired Scandinavian homes here (flick past this home). Time to clear the weekend and scour the local flee markets....

I might be back with a weekend post at some point... but if not have a wonderful few days and see you Monday!

A cool monochrome Swedish home

P and I had very different ideas of what we were looking for when we bought our house but after a broad search we moved 50 metres! My parents did the same when we were small. It just goes to show what you are looking for is often right under your nose! Do you find this to be true? Swedish pair Lina and Andreas Kanstrup were planning a new build when a house came on the market 100 metres away. They were sceptical but the moment they walked in the door they knew it was right and all building plans went out the window. They renovated their new house from scratch learning lessons on the way and relying on gut instinct. I think the end result is fabulous, don't you?

Who knows, maybe your dream home is a few metres from where you live (unless of course you already live there)?!

There are so many things I love about Lina and Andreas home, including the open plan kitchen, mix of vintage and modern and the monochrome look.

I spy: Kitchen: Cabinets, lights, metal shelf, firdge, fan, stove all IKEA. Tiles are gloss 15 cmm x 15 cmm. Thonet chairs (15% off with code MYSCAN). Lanterns. Office: Desks and shelves from IKEA. Flowerpot lamp. Bedroom: Muuto Dot hooks. Hand sculpture.

Is there anything in particular you love about this home?

Oh and thank you to the team at Good Homes magazine UK for featuring me in their May edition and also to Garmentory for publishing an interview with me here. Exciting!

Have a lovely day!
