Red accents in the bedroom
This Sunday marks Singapore's 49th year of independence! We thought we'd dedicate this red and white themed post to Singapore, celebrating this beautiful sunny island.
From the photos we've gathered we can easily say that red and white look great together and that red is an amazing accent color to use in your home, it's a beautiful pop! The apple poster (above) reminds us of the Tomato poster we have in the Bloesem studio, the perfect piece to brighten up a room.
Happy Birthday Singapore!
No bake orange cream tartlets with mixed berries
It's too bright for a whole wall, but perfect for a bright bench..
The red shelve makes this DIY planter closet made by Kathleen all the more beautiful!
Red & white..
Red, white and natural wood..
Thinking of a way to jazz up a plain wall? You just found a way.

We all know the color blue, but welcome blue's sexier cousin, Indigo.
Indigo has this mysterious and intense quality. I love how it looks when used in interiors, the space immediately looks posh, for a lack of a better word. The color even looks great when used to create patterns like the leaf DIY. I'm so inspired by the use of Indigo on the Celine runway, wonder if i've anything remotely similar in my wardrobe.
Let's go forth and indiGO!

Halloween is just around the corner and we know what's on everyone's minds! "What should i be this halloween?!" (and for some "How much candy can this bag really hold?"). But before we all get too hopped up on all the halloween candy, let's take a look at some interiors inspired by this day.
With both Halloween and autumn upon us, here are some ideas of how the beautiful, naturally occurring colors of the season can be seamlessly integrated into our homes. The orange and green hues remind us of pumpkins, falling leaves and everything we love about this part of the year.
It's going to be over before we know it, so let's all try out some of these ideas in our homes!

Instead of preparing some posts for you I went to De Kleine Fabriek yesterday ... a big trade fair for everything kids ... and it was such a pleasure meeting Frank Visser from IJM studio... not only was his booth or should I say pop / prop up shop a magical little place showcasing his beautiful colors and paints it was also very nice to be able to chat with him for a little while.
I believe it was a very smart move from the Kleine Fabriek to invite him ... he makes the creative difference at a fair like this.
Did you know that IJM has it's own Paint Collection available for you to order via this website. The site gives you a perfect guidance what color to choose by looking at the inspiration boards. My favorite is JUHU, what about you?

Frank also told me about his second book published at my favorite Belgian publisher called Luster his first 'Dutch architects and their houses' together with Morjam Bleeker was already gorgeous I am sure his second will be a spectacular feast of colors and inspiration.
Enjoy some color inspiration...

Raw Color did it again ... Simply perfection and it combines all the things I love .. wool , colors and translucency.
Interior designers Van Eijk & Van der Lubbe were commissioned by a Dutch bank to renew their office in Eindhoven. With the help from Daphna Laurens, Snodevormgevers and Ecological Textiles a stunning project has happened.
