{Interiors} 9 cool throw pillows for your sofa

{Interiors} 9 cool throw pillows for your sofa | Mix'em up
VIA My scandinavian Home
With the new year, I am on the hunt for some accessories for my sofa. So I thought that I would design a bunch of them on my Society6 shop. I then got a bit sidetracked and started getting lost in it's giant maze. There are so many cool designs, it is worth mixing up pattern, and scale.
I might get some for the kids' bedroom also.

So here is my selection for you to enjoy.

{Design} Lost in sofa by Daisuke Motogi Architecture


{Design} Lost in sofa by Daisuke Motogi Architecture - Rue du chat qui peche

Things always get lost in sofas. Because they fall out of your pockets, or just because they have somehow fallen into the cracks of your sofa. Sometimes they resurface and sometimes they are never to be found again.
Tokyo-based architect Daisuke Motogi Architecture emphasised this trait of a sofa in this playful utility armchair design. The multitude of cracks are purposefully used for storage, items can be shelved between cushions.

{Interior} Old factory converted to industrial home in Spello by Paola Navone

I came accross them again going through my bookmarks for future post ideas, and since you seemed to enjoy my previous post, I thought you would also like to see these gorgeous images by Max Zambelli. He photographed this stunning industrial space designed by Paola Navone in Spello, Italy. Originally from Turin, Paola Navone is an architect, interior designer and art director. 

This 17th century factory was successfully turned into a 500 sqm open plan apartment. It is full of ideas to keep your creative juices inspired. There are so many details that I love in this home! I love the industrial features, the contrast between the massive rustic beams & the sleek fireplace, the 10 metre high ceilings. The re-use theme that reappears throughout, from reclaimed wood, to up-cycled pieces of furniture. Finally, the cement floor tiles make it just perfect, in particular the clever transition with the hexagonal Moroccan cement floor tiles and the wooden floors.

{Design} Little American Mountain Bag by Herschel Supply Co.



Channel your inner American Boy/Girl Scout with this gorgeous classic backpack from Herschel Supply Co. The Little America Mountain Bag combines heritage with modern touches. It comes in a bunch of colours, but I think I would have to go for the bright orange one. You can get it from Asos or Amazon.
I need one to take on my adventures this summer...

{Fashion} Red skirt and stripes

I have been so busy since coming back from Easter break that I have neglected my blog. As I am putting the kids to bed I found a moment to go through some old feeds, and this one by Atlantic Pacific in particular put a smile on my face. Atlantic Pacific blogs about fashion, and I find the playfulness of her outfits and posts fresh.
I love this outfit in particular: gorgeous red skirt and stripes!
I know my last post was also about stripes, but I wanted to share this with you anyway!

i ♡ Morocco | Moroccan interior by El Ramla Hamra

Today I am really excited! I am taking a little break from packing to let you know that tomorrow I am going home to Morocco for 3 weeks to visit my family, fiest on tagines and take in the good weather.
I have not been home for an entire year, so I have missed it desperately. I won't let it be that long again, I need to replenish at least a couple of times a year. 
But no worries, I have a few posts planned for when I am away, so make sure you visit me. I'll have plenty of Moroccan inspiration for you when I come back.

In the meantime, I thought I would share with you this gorgeous black and white Moroccan interior at El Ramla Hamra.

{Design} Lasso flat-packed slippers

{Design} Lasso flat-packed slippers
Lasso is a pair of flat-packed slippers by french team Gaspard Tiné-Berès & Ruben ValensiCleverly made from a single piece of wool-felt with a leather sole and laced by yourself, in the colour of your choice. Simply lace it up... Et voila!


{Design} Lasso flat-packed slippers

By involving the owner in the manufacturing process, the idea is that each pair will be unique, depending on the person who owns it. A true local product.
If you like them, you could help kickstart the project here and get a pair or more in return depending on your contribution...

{Style} Beautiful bedrooms

Both adults in our house are sick today, so we have been taking turns keeping the bed warm. I love crisp linens, fluffy duvets and pillows. Here are a few I found earlier for inspiration.
