Calligraphy Inspiration from Sweden

Super talented Swedish designer and calligrapher Ylva Skarp opened up her home and demonstrated some beautiful handwritten Christmas ideas for the latest issue of Lantliv magazine. She lives with her family in an old schoolhouse. The space is incredible and a great example of how to layer up textures for the winter months but I'd like to see this space at night. As much as I love the neutral colour palette, it looks a little chilly. I hope it's flooded with warm light from those lamps in the evenings. Still, if it was offered to me, I'd take it...

Art House

I appear to be experiencing some sort of  kitchen binge at present...I've been collecting kitchen images here and on pinterest as if I had some sort of potential project on my hands...(more on that another time). This kitchen is pretty special, so special that it's up on a pedestal, overlooking a special space belonging to Spanish artist Enrique Garcia Lozano. His massive works of art hang among other artists' massive works of art on massive walls in his massive, open plan, home and studio. Massive. And pretty special, don't you think?
