A pretty white apartment in Gothenburg

5:38 AM | Labels: , , , ,

It's Friiiiiiiiiday, woohoo!! To celebrate let's go for a classic contemporary all white affair with this beautiful Gothenburg apartment built in 1939 and for sale via Alvhem (it's been a while since I've done a  'for sale in Sweden' post - at least 7 days...!). I spy Scandinavian designer pieces, mid century finds and vintage prints organised in the relatively small space of 39 metres square. I think the creative people at Alvhem who also own the shop in the last image, have done a fab job.










Alvhem
It's quite impressive how the white makes the space look so much larger than it is. Alvhem has been really clever with the room layout too.

What do you think?

So that's it from me for this week, do you have any great plans for the weekend? Me, I'm off out with the girls tonight :) Oh and re-thinking a major room change in the house which requires lots of help from Pinterest of course! Have a lovely a couple of days and see you Monday!

Black and white Finnish touch

1:46 AM | Labels: , , ,

It's been ages since I've shown a beautiful Finnish home. I always think the folks in Finland have got such a distinct, incredible sense of contemporary style. My latest find is the home of Sanni and Joona from The Rag Rug in Turku, Finland photographed by Suvi from lovely blog Lily. The black and white home is crammed with Scandinavian design classics, vintage finds and personal design work.

It's funny how one thing stands out and sticks in the mind when I see a home. In this case it was the 'Rethink' print. It's so clever! Did anything stand out for you?

Hope you all have a lovely day!

Simple yet striking

6:16 AM | Labels: , , ,

A distinctly simple yet utterly striking Scandinavian apartment to celebrate the weekend. If you could choose one fabulous designer item from this home, what it would it be?

With kind permission from Bohman & Sjöstrand and found via lovely blog Solid Frog.

Before I head off, just a little reminder that you only have a couple of days left to make the most of the 10% My Scandinavian Home reader offer from the fab shop Bodie and Fou! - code MSH2012.

Have a really great weekend all!

Swedish home with vintage finds: part II

7:06 AM | Labels: , , , , , ,

Yesterday we took a peek around the wonderful  little children's bedroom from Johanna Gartmyr's Southern Swedish family home. And today I promised you the remainder of this fab home crammed full of wonderful retro flea market finds and timeless Scandinavian designer pieces. I particularly love how Johanna and her husband have balanced the splashes of colour in each room, for example the bright yellow lamp matches with the retro chilren's high chair in the dining area...






Photography: Lisa Wikstrand, Stylist/home/owner Johanna Gartmyr, Aprill Aprill.

I spy variations of the String shelves in the dining and sitting room areas. The IKEA black and white striped STOCKHOLM RAND rug in the sitting room and the 'round elefant' black tray from Svenskt Tenn in the last picture.

Such a fab, happy home! Is there anything you particularly love?

PS Thank you Johanna for your kind permission  to share these images (taken by sister, Lisa Wikstrand).

PPS My Scandinavian Home is finally on Facebook as of a month ago (although it has an identity disorder and thinks it's a Tumblr so if you like to have your day occasionally interrupted by a pretty interior picture it could be worth a 'like'. Oh and I am also a little addicted to Pinterest too, are you on there too?

A beautifully simple Danish home

6:38 AM | Labels: ,

Clean lines, fresh white, touches of black and some fabulous pieces, this is one lovely Danish home from interior magazine Bo Bedre.

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?!

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!).

Designer filled Stockholm pad

10:17 AM | Labels: , , ,

Hello and happy Monday! For sale right now in the wonderful city of Stockholm is this fab apartment. On the market through Fantastic Frank, it reads like a designer's game of I-spy, there are just so many design classics including the beautiful Eero Saarinen's Tulip chair and table, and the barcelona chair, which are mixed in with high street favourites such as the IKEA Alex drawer unit.







Fantastic Frank via Rum & Rabalder

What do you reckon? Too white on the night? Or perfectly bright? Any favourite pieces?!

Have a great monday evening!
