DUSTY VINTAGE

April 9, 2018

For the month of April we’re inspired by a vintage deco based on the dusty, muted hues such as golden yellows, rich greys, bronze browns and rose. Where the colder tones balance off the warmer tones, creating a beautiful depth when layered. Our Floor of the Month for April 2018 is Oak Earth by Kährs Artisan Collection. Oak Earth has a rich smoked […]

JUNGLE FEVER

April 2, 2018

We recently collaborated with the talented Live Loud Girl team for a special interior photoshoot – featuring that playful style that Live Loud Girl is known for. Our natural Kährs Oak Siena wood floor was selected to add an earthy and grounding feel to the otherwise vibrant decor – showcased in two different room settings. We love!

WARM AUTUMN

October 4, 2017

This autumn’s trend focuses on using warm colours in deep, earthy tones, with a strong 1970’s-meets-oriental feel. Colours such as pink, red and rusty tones are more in vogue than ever. The palette ranges from light pink to burgundy and burnt orange, combined with deep browns that are balanced off with crisp whites and gold accents. Our Floor of the Month for October, […]

MODERN RETRO

August 1, 2017

We’re loving deep emerald greens in combination with smokey brown wood and contrasting whites and brass. Interiors inspired by the iconic mid-century modern era and its nature-focused colour and material palette. Where the linear meets the organic – blurring out the lines between feminine and masculine. An interior that creates a sense of cosy comfort and timeless sophistication at the same […]

As for interiors this autumn, […]

Up for some #BevviesandBurgers anyone? Brunswick Sports Club is the latest brainchild of F&B-duo Tom Arnel and Sergio Lopez, founders of Bull&Roo Hospitality. This pub is their first licensed venue, and is located inside Sheraton Hotel, on Level 2 of Mall of the Emirates. The pub could very well be described as having the atmosphere of […]

Today, the beautiful manor houses Siggesta Gård Hotell – a hotel and conference facility. Their most exclusive accommodation and conference facility is called Smedjan.

BLACK // WHITE // BRASS

July 22, 2014

There’s something about the tiniest bit of brass that instantly makes a space more interesting. Especially spaces with lots of matte white and black surfaces; small amounts gold add a lived-in and sophisticated quality. 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9  

URBAN TROPIC

February 10, 2014

The first thought that came to mind when seeing this one-bedroom apartment in central Stockholm was: urban tropic. That’s how I feel is the best way to describe the style of this funky home. What makes this home so interesting is that there is a clear mix of vibrant classic caribbean colours (the wallpaper behind the […]

MAD MEN

December 5, 2013

We LOVE this apartment’s masculine interpretation of 1950/60’s “Retro-Modern” style. A very hipster, yet glam feel, highly reminiscent of what is  seen in the hit TV series Mad Men (yes, we are currently imagining Mr. Draper deep in though, sitting in one of those armchairs). As you might know by now, our favourite combination is […]

HARTFORD IN MY HEART

August 12, 2013

Walnut: a dark, medium hard wood species. The wood is straight grained and patchy. The heartwood is pale brown to dark chocolate in colour. Unlike most wood species, walnut turns lighter over the years and becomes golden brown. Seen in this simple yet cozy apartment that nods to a modern take on suave retro design (perhaps […]

GLAM BEACH

July 2, 2013

Palm Jumeirah’s coastal qualities and the villa’s seafront locale influenced the look of this home. Every inch of this vibrant 6,500 sq. ft. Atrium villa on Palm Jumeirah is full of contemporary and retro furnishings, memorabilia, sculptures and art that achieve a finely tuned balance, which is both elegant and engaging. “This is a villa by the […]

NUDE MOOD

Romance is light wood, skin-colored tones and small thoughtful words. Back to basics, stripped down and purified. A renaissance for your soul.  1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13

A REGAL HOME

August 2, 2012

This apartment in the Dubai Marina not only has a breathtaking view over the infamous Palm Jumeirah, but has an interior that is beautifully balanced between dramatic and harmonious with its classic-modern/European Renaissance decor. The stunning floor, Ash Gotland, just adds to its overall perfection – a better suited floor could not have been chosen for this home’s […]
