A Malmö home teeming with design classics

Some weeks I struggle to find beautiful Scandinavian inspired home tours to share. Other weeks they seem to fall into my lap. This week is definitely the latter - I'm so excited by the three posts I've shared already this week (here, here and here), do you find the same when you're blogging?! Today I've found another exciting space! This apartment is based here in Malmö, Sweden (who I might add, qualified for Champions League last night - amazing! Heja Malmö!). The space is teeming with real design classics (more of which below) and the pink peonies add just the right amount of colour to the otherwise monochrome space. Lovely!










Bjurfors
So - the design classics I was talking about. I spy the Knoll Diamond arm chair, Eames DSW chairs and Tom Dixon Copper Shade light in the sitting room / dining area. By Lassen Kubus Bowl and Tom Ford coffee table book on the side table. Design House Stockholm Work Light and CH24 Wishbone chairs in the kitchen. Er, what else? Can you see anything I've missed?  Feel free to add anything you love in the comment section below!

For a beautiful vase I'm loving the Klong Äng right now. It recently won best interior accessory in the Elle Decoration Swedish Design Awards 2014. It's top of my birthday wishlist!

Have a lovely day!

A fabulous Swedish apartment in Malmö

Hejsan, hejsan! I hope you had a fabulous weekend?! Have I got the most amazing home tour to share today!  Excitingly the apartment is for sale right here in Malmö, Sweden and situated on a lovely square in the town centre called Davidshallstorg (if you're visiting Malmö go there to enjoy vintage and quirky clothes boutiques, restaurant Mrs Brown and a short walk to one of my favourite haunts the Victoria picnic theatre). Every room in this spacious apartment is so fresh and light thanks to the white walls, high ceilings and double doors. The owners clearly have a fantastic sense of style too decorating the space with a perfect mix of designer pieces and high street finds. My Monday morning has just got infinitely better!












Bjurfors
I spy: Kitchen: 7 series chairs, Tivoli radio, Rosendahl clock.  Rosendahl monkey. Children's bedroom: red bumling light, the Vitra Hang it All. Dining room: Eames DSW chairs, Kubus 4 candleholder. Sitting room: LCM chair,  what else, what else?...feel free to add anything in the comment section!!

Could you move in here?!

Have a wonderful Monday!

PS thank you to my uber stylish friend Malin for the tip on today's home tour!

A Scandinavian inspired Melbourne home

Is it just me or is Scandinavian design having a moment in Australia? The number of times a fabulous Australian home pops up on Pinterest right now is crazy! This contemporary  Melbourne apartment owned by Indian born Eddie Kaul and Richa Pant and designed by Hecker Guthrie  is a fine example of the clean, understated and elegant style and the way Scandinavian design furniture is sweeping through Australian homes. Since Hecker Guthrie's initial interior design, Richa has continued to to enhance the home and adding art by local artists such as Emily Ferretti. Spotted over at The Design Files (if you don't already follow this amazing blog you should!) and Dust Jacket (another great one!) and photographed by Eve Wilson, I couldn't imagine a finer home to celebrate Friday with you can you?!

So fabulous don't you think? Anything you love in particular?

The Design Files has also done a wonderful job of listing where you can find many of the items you see in the home.

More incredible Australian homes here, here and here.

What are you up this weekend? Anything fun? Decorating? Paddle boarding? Camping? Crayfish party?

It's my little girls' 6th birthday this weekend so we're gearing up for a birthday party and lots of celebrations! Exciting!

Have a wonderful weekend and see you Monday!

PS I'm amazed I've got over 19,000 Facebook (disguised as a Tumblr) followers, thank you for following!

And the lovely guys at Bo Bedre have given a great guide to where many of the items are from, in Danish mind you, but you can always google translate :) To save you looking - the outdoor Globe fireplace is from Swedish brand Vauni, how fab is that?!

A little piece of Scandinavia in Toronto

Because the summer's not over yet - here is a beautiful Scandinavian styled guest house in Toronto, Canada owned by John and Juli Baker of Mjolk, an online shop selling items by Scandinavian and Japanese designers (it's starting to become a bit of dangerous week!).
