Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen's portfolio

I found some more amazing photographs by Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen when I looked through his portfolio. I met Jonas at the Furniture Fair and he told me that the site hasn't been officially launched yet, it's still in beta mode, but it looks great, so I thought I could share it here anyway! You can really see his love for materials and all their different textures shining through in each of these photos.






&tradition's latest news styled by Pernille Vest

Danish interior stylist Pernille Vest is a regular contributor in my favorite magazine, RUM. I love everything she does, and these shots of &tradition's latest products that was launched at Stockholm Furniture Fair this week, is no exception. The new Hoof lounge table is sure to be a big hit, and I bet we will see it everywhere this Spring.


The photos below are shot by Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen, one half of the tremendously successful design and architecture studio NORM. I am very impressed by his multiple talents!





Stockholm Design Week

Today is the start of Stockholm Design Week, so I will be running around town on a million press shows in the next few days, starting tonight with the Elle Decoration Design Awards. And tomorrow is the opening of the Stockholm Furniture Fair. It's going to be lots of fun and I hope to have some nice things to share with you here at the end of the week, but for now, I'm logging off. I hope to be able to update the blog's facebook page via my phone, but I won't be bringing my computer, so probably no updates here until Thursday.






Saturday Sweets

It's been a while since I made a Saturday Sweets post, but I think it's time now! I didn't think of a theme before I chose the photos, but now that I see them all together, I believe contrasts might be the theme of today?

Stylist Tina Hellberg

One of my favourite interior stylists, Tina Hellberg, finally has her own site with an online portfolio where you can find her latest work! This is the latest feature she made, together with photographer Magnus Anesund. It's called The Collectors.






Stylist Paulina Arcklin

Interior Stylist Paulina Arcklin just launched her new website and blog, with lots of wonderful photos, and some interesting behind-the-scene shots as well! There is also an e-mag with samples from Paulina's latest magazine features. Below are some of my favorites. Enjoy!

All photos by Tim Collins.






Joanna Laajisto lives here!

One of the most popular pictures on my blog is one from Tiger Sushi, a sushi restaurant in Espoo, Finland, designed by interior architect Joanna Laajisto. I love that photo too, and I think it sums up the current trends very well, as it shows plywood walls, black details, ceramics, metal, and a mix of Japanese and Scandinavian style.

Today I would like to invite you to an exclusive tour of Joanna's home in Töölö, Helsinki! Joanna and her photographer husband Mikko Ryhänen renovated the entire place last year, and then Mikko shot these pictures. Some of them were published in the Finnish interior magazine Glorian Koti, but this is the first time they are showed online.







Photographer Jérôme Galland

Today I'm loving these photos from the portfolio of French photographer Jérôme Galland, found via AnoukB's fb page.






Est Magazine Issue #4

The 4th issue of Est Magazine is launching on Tuesday, January 31. It's a great Australian online mag, and this issue will be focusing on Scandinavian style, with features like a Stockholm guide by Joanna from Simple Blueprint, a house tour in Tine K's home and a great styling job by Marjon Hoogervorst and AnoukB! Here is a sneak peek, and if you like it as much as I do, don't forget to check out the entire issue here in a few days.






The Lab, Copenhagen

What a wonderful photo studio! It's called The Lab, located in Copenhagen, and I found it through Lotta Agaton. I believe she has been there shooting something recently, and I'm very curious to see the results!






The Vosges Paris kitchen

I've been reading about my friend Desiree's kitchen makeover on her blog Vosges Paris, and I've been extremely curious to see the final results. I had seen a few photos, but here is the full picture, shown for the first time. Thank you so much Desiree for letting me be the first one to share these wonderful photos!

After starting her kitchen makeover last summer, Desiree got so inspired she decided to not let it stop there... She knocked down several walls, painted or stripped other walls,  laid new floors, well she practically renovated and redecorated her entire apartment! Have a look here if you want to see more of her home. The style is a mix of rustic French industrial and modern Scandinavian simplicity.

Styling and photography: Desiree

Friday the 13th

Let's celebrate Friday the 13th with two quite spooky rooms! This large house in London not only has some gorgeous light and minimalistic rooms, it also has two rooms that have been totally spared from renovations, with rough walls, bare bricks and exposed beams. They look like the perfect place for a Halloween shoot, and I love it! The house is available for film or photo shoots through Shoot Factory.






At home with Hope

Hope is one of my favorite fashion brands. Their clothes have a great simplicity with cool details, the quality is great, and almost everything is black or grey. So it should come as no suprprise that I also love this home of one of the designers, Stefan Söderberg. I have posted about this home before, but I just couldn't resist showing it again when I saw the pictures over at Design & Form. Perhaps all of you haven't seen it?
