A Cool Men's Apartment in B&W

Marjon Hoogervorst and AnoukB have been working together to make this Amsterdam apartment look fantastic, unique, warm, pure and cool! AnoukB was responsible for the gorgeous styling and Marjon shot the beautiful images. The owner of the aprtment requested for a lot of white and wood...AnoukB did a beautiful job I believe. 

  

AnoukB has her own styling studio in Amsterdam and specializes in interiors...and I believe Marjon doesn't need much introduction anymore, I'm a fan of this Dutch photographer and always like to write about her work ... her productions have been featured in Elle Decor UK, Rum magazine, House and Garden and many more....just shoot her an email if you would like to talk to her. 

{ps. later today I will be posting the Category Accessories for the Gift Guide 2010}

Gelukkig

 

Just discovered Dutch furniture label Gelukkig =Lucky, meaning feeling very happy, blessed and satisfied...I like the website and the styling images very much, sorry the site only comes in Dutch, but you might like it for inspiration. 

Not your usual set of curtains

Do you love these curtains as much as I do?

Bauke Knottnerus from Rotterdam... thank you Emma, Monika and Victoria for sharing...

Living gorgeously on 484ft2 or 45m2

Can you believe this beautiful apartment in Amsterdam is only 45m2 or 484ft2 ...Dutch design agency i-29 has done an incredible job in creating a new lay-out for this home where all the functions of the house are placed in just two wall units.

One pinewood wall for hiding the entrance hall, wardrobe and kitchen equipment and on the opposite a second pinewood wall that integrates a bench, fireplace and storage.

What I really love are the white floor, ceiling and walls mixed with the color of the gorgeous pinewood and with YES the Black! If we were to live here I probably would add some nice rugs and you would definetly see some toys laying around...love i-29 for a long time and happy to finally share their work with you, please visit the website for more briliant interios!

 

Rose Patate at Vitrine

 

I believe it was over at BKIds that I mentioned Rose Patate for the first time. And seeing her great new pillows over at Vitrine today convinced me again that her designs are absolutely my kind of thing!

Rose Patate aka Rachel Peloquin grew up between Montreal and England and currently lives and works as an independant textile designer in Paris. You can buy her textile collection right here...

Love is in the air today....
