The lovely, relaxed home of a Danish student

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I love this relaxed home of communications masters student <a href="https://instagram.com/juliewp/">Julie Wittrup Pladsbjerg</a> which she shares with her boyfriend in Aalborg, Denmark. Julie is a keen writer and interior decorator and recently did an internship at one of my favourite Danish interiors magazines <a href="http://www.boligliv.dk/">BoligLiv</a>. She loves to mix old with new and has a big thing for plants, which can be seen dotted around the apartment. There are so many details I love about this space - the black and white wall in the bedroom with the low shelf as a side table, the DIY shoe rack in the hall, the open dressing room. Did your home look as cool as this when you were a student (I'd love to say mine did)?!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Pretty greens and blues in a Copenhagen home

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">This lovely 1920's Copenhagen home in a former sculptur's atelier is decorated in the prettiest of pretty greens, turquoise and blues. It's one of those homes which never goes on the market - owner <a href="https://www.facebook.com/JosefineBentzen" target="_blank">Josefine Bentzen</a>, an award winning industrial designer, who lives here with husband Steen Piil inherited it from her parents. The couple have decorated the space with the perfect blend of romantic country, mid-century and scandinavian modern to create a truly unique and personal home. What a treasure?!  <br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyCzuvFU7HwfLAwV9vT33DQYqkgC9huEdqnouftbKaFFo8cP1QkfU8jL6z_RaYN4CTp_dIhojaEebr__zzpzdVPJAbhEm7zXkPNoh4jr7sjd75KK3qfzBrZNrEiDqccVJnCsePMlZiuCs/s1600/cop1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

The windows are also likely to be north facing to ensure reflected or indirect light which helps the artist have greater control over values, contrasts and subtle colour changes within a painting or sculpture (if you live in the southern hemisphere these would face south).<br /><br />Artist or no artist, wouldn't it be fab to have windows like these in your home?!<br /><br />Other items I know and love: source a vintage Cobra phone on <a href="http://www.ebay.com/" target="_blank">ebay</a>, try <a href="http://www.lauritz.com/en/" target="_blank">Lauritz </a>for a RAR rocking chair, or <a href="http://www.designcollectors.com/EN/product/1047/vitra-eames-plastic-armchair-rar/" target="_blank">Design Collectors</a> for a modern version.

So wonderful, don't you think?!<br /><br />Does your home have an interesting past?<br /><br />Have a lovely day! </div>

Could you go all out geometric?

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">At the start of the week you're a allowed to go a little all out don't you think?! That's why I wanted to share this home in The Jardine district of Sao Paulo with you. The space belongs to a young lawyer who returned to Brazil after a spate in Italy.  He commissioned famous architect <a href="http://felipehess.com.br/" target="_blank">Filipe Hess</a> to renovate his newly acquired apartment to it's orginal 1950's former glory and at the same time reflect the relaxed European lifestyle he so enjoyed in Italy. The result is a beautiful mix of mid-century and industrial. And not a corner without a geometric pattern of some sort. Kind of cool don't you think?<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYIMOTPLRan0eaCvhUTZ-WML80o9kaab0fFHV1zQcQ2ER-IOoaJAr9QS8gh36dn6aojTePJ9Sm9y_nLFq9TT2FHXw_VuM5q-u3nOph0Ucm2ryS8TLEssiBjP_fOUE0Pt1cwcEWoQI6lTKh/s1600/filip7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYIMOTPLRan0eaCvhUTZ-WML80o9kaab0fFHV1zQcQ2ER-IOoaJAr9QS8gh36dn6aojTePJ9Sm9y_nLFq9TT2FHXw_VuM5q-u3nOph0Ucm2ryS8TLEssiBjP_fOUE0Pt1cwcEWoQI6lTKh/s1600/filip7.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3C0dhVwVRU_rD3okEOJoRgUdhSkw6Ph9gMoJzOFmfVvYA-2FJMcHawCs46AGVG6PQ7XbDPIaE4KVTsMF2H9VW0Efvlp8BY53RazMs_c9Lo57IV64Gldc2z7YOlz4cQ-PdYmPps7F-55h0/s1600/filip5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3C0dhVwVRU_rD3okEOJoRgUdhSkw6Ph9gMoJzOFmfVvYA-2FJMcHawCs46AGVG6PQ7XbDPIaE4KVTsMF2H9VW0Efvlp8BY53RazMs_c9Lo57IV64Gldc2z7YOlz4cQ-PdYmPps7F-55h0/s1600/filip5.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4OjmRLmUcsVrleTRhNc7UHq6-OT8Kig-ndo0kAD3-JNixMuyPIvygCYptyrFef_ZYpaR_hFHCCFIsGuyTCZWIGBxE3PtHeber4FM6trYxkKNpc5gn_lR1_XjyAz5bUbNpBbz5KbPT2idu/s1600/filip4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4OjmRLmUcsVrleTRhNc7UHq6-OT8Kig-ndo0kAD3-JNixMuyPIvygCYptyrFef_ZYpaR_hFHCCFIsGuyTCZWIGBxE3PtHeber4FM6trYxkKNpc5gn_lR1_XjyAz5bUbNpBbz5KbPT2idu/s1600/filip4.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7q82DYidp8CmE2ED6ql7M1hjKxhf4ngZu65z48pqOiQijqLfqkKYFQIjeBHA1WiUHgZ3tY4m4M1O8oQ04ZUO2OPww-AEtJtVJsfA8LfcLKq5e4GF6t0eN52qFiO2WXi7X95ilwGyDcQcL/s1600/filip2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7q82DYidp8CmE2ED6ql7M1hjKxhf4ngZu65z48pqOiQijqLfqkKYFQIjeBHA1WiUHgZ3tY4m4M1O8oQ04ZUO2OPww-AEtJtVJsfA8LfcLKq5e4GF6t0eN52qFiO2WXi7X95ilwGyDcQcL/s1600/filip2.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjG2wxpGwWalDiZpFbYspI1_F3YRhd6ZmhXqDXbHocygfbkPSIuOBy8wbqXjNxqZLs4fxbGmhUV0GM_aLGYeVJYTGLIaeawn0mx8Al_PKUNYBkmBQtu9HCV6tMnrUlLaE_VVeu6NI-9fL3L/s1600/filip9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjG2wxpGwWalDiZpFbYspI1_F3YRhd6ZmhXqDXbHocygfbkPSIuOBy8wbqXjNxqZLs4fxbGmhUV0GM_aLGYeVJYTGLIaeawn0mx8Al_PKUNYBkmBQtu9HCV6tMnrUlLaE_VVeu6NI-9fL3L/s1600/filip9.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt2DxHmbMfunhafPMBmhjh3EMlFH7MIRlihf1uIei2aiuO8lHXPsmZ6PmP-ZRvrQDF7KqzJhFvgTrnSGVFSTdIQFRZ32Sb4ykpJQ97Q0Yz9-5fbG0AJJPAH50jmhgs18f9jUvE5L1SKRdf/s1600/filip8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt2DxHmbMfunhafPMBmhjh3EMlFH7MIRlihf1uIei2aiuO8lHXPsmZ6PmP-ZRvrQDF7KqzJhFvgTrnSGVFSTdIQFRZ32Sb4ykpJQ97Q0Yz9-5fbG0AJJPAH50jmhgs18f9jUvE5L1SKRdf/s1600/filip8.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">AD.

A Danish home with a warm soul and quirky touches

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Here in Southern Sweden there's a winter storm on it's way (<i>again</i>). I think there's something kind of cosy about being indoors while the wind howls outside, don't you? Plus it creates time for all those projects. This Danish space belongs to <a href="http://meltdesignstudio.com/hvem/" target="_blank">Dorthe Kvist</a>, a landscape gardener, stylist, and interior designer and her husband and two children. Situated in Vanlose, Denmark. the family home is perfect inspiration for this type of weekend since many of the items within (shelves, tables etc) have been made by hand. The space has also been decorated using a mix of sentimental items such as photos, inherited furniture and flea market finds as well as modern ceramics and quirky touches.  The result is a cosy, personal space with plenty of soul. I could ride out a storm here, how about you?<br /><br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTu9Z7uyeN8nmn3P7dcX0Y_P79D22oYHRNSfg3k1JTEWDRi99TJN7s-neYn_20aNbS32KVHdMPuGOuc6ycVDv6A_90ggMEpKOrun21uGW1Es2zpWJIeN4ltH1zsBxAN5IKyHHxyBZOEpz7/s1600/BL0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTu9Z7uyeN8nmn3P7dcX0Y_P79D22oYHRNSfg3k1JTEWDRi99TJN7s-neYn_20aNbS32KVHdMPuGOuc6ycVDv6A_90ggMEpKOrun21uGW1Es2zpWJIeN4ltH1zsBxAN5IKyHHxyBZOEpz7/s1600/BL0.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://boligmagasinet.dk/article/181648-en-bolig-fyldt-med-gode-ideer/gallery/850699" target="_blank">Bolig Magasinet</a>.

A relaxed, bohemian space in Stockholm

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">This relaxed, boho apartment in Stockholm has been furnished with a mix of mid-century, industrial and contemporary Scandinavian.  It's the kind of place i cold see myself instantly feeling at home in. I particularly love the day bed and step ladder as a bed side table. One other thing I noticed was the wiring / cables. Usually homes are styled within an inch of their lives so cables are either hidden or photo-shopped out. In this case they're entirely visible - and I have to say, it's kind of refreshing. Although it hasn't stopped me from providing a few cool cable tips below!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

A fab Amsterdam apartment

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="text-align: left;">This is my second dutch home tour of the week (see the other one <a href="http://www.myscandinavianhome.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/the-bright-and-happy-home-of-dutch.html">here</a>). I really do love the Dutch style. It's incredibly similar to Swedish decor with the white floors and walls, but the Dutch tend to go for more bright pops of colour. This home, spotted over at wonderful blog <a href="http://frenchbydesignblog.com/">French By Design, </a>in the heart of Amsterdam belongs to interior designer / stylist <a href="http://www.brechtjetroost.nl/">Brechtje Troost</a>. It follows the general Dutch design rule with the white backdrop and bursts of colour but it also features a fab mid-century twist. And wait - I even spot a Swedish print! An apartment truly deserved of the coveted Friday my scandinavian home tour spot, don't you think?!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWEfDssGbMyNsPuvsFdQ9PLdAQDfqoGPjd9CiMg-vSmVRDYhKMQvXQ4GRYEbq1Nu-9DJlALKdiOte8zMXbJSMp40rQ3k3Qm4KVUeFKPwTREmFrLWeOSgRZjNm8QAB5RU4htmMQsNt7pMSo/s1600/io1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWEfDssGbMyNsPuvsFdQ9PLdAQDfqoGPjd9CiMg-vSmVRDYhKMQvXQ4GRYEbq1Nu-9DJlALKdiOte8zMXbJSMp40rQ3k3Qm4KVUeFKPwTREmFrLWeOSgRZjNm8QAB5RU4htmMQsNt7pMSo/s1600/io1.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Photography <a href="http://jantiendebood.wix.com/kijken-bij#!thuis/mainPage">Jantien De Bood</a>. <a href="http://www.homelife.com.au/magazine/inside+out">Inside Out Magazine </a>via <a href="http://frenchbydesignblog.com/2014/10/visit-colorful-apartment-amsterdam.html">French By Design</a></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1GRChTthd9bFQL5gzCBCbHG9siiJAJxI4-BbpjQOtLlr6ohdVGgAIKE1vWxWaMfYaQUL5qYD9RO26ynIyyT3_qOoL39iib3g6vA7jkrZgmoeP3jRU_4AP4mLL1rmjbzk4E-ZynAqtcfYY/s1600/brechtje1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1GRChTthd9bFQL5gzCBCbHG9siiJAJxI4-BbpjQOtLlr6ohdVGgAIKE1vWxWaMfYaQUL5qYD9RO26ynIyyT3_qOoL39iib3g6vA7jkrZgmoeP3jRU_4AP4mLL1rmjbzk4E-ZynAqtcfYY/s1600/brechtje1.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Photography <a href="http://jantiendebood.wix.com/kijken-bij#!thuis/mainPage">Jantien De Bood</a>.

A Malmö apartment with a mid-century touch

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Well hello there Monday! I hope you had a great weekend?! It's half term here in Southern Sweden so I'm gearing up for a trip to London later this week - sooo excited! Are you up to anything fun? Today I'd like to share this lovely apartment here in Malmö with you. There's just something about it I love - could it be the mid-century touches? Most likely! But also the elements of surprise such as the bright floral printed cushion against the green harlequin wallpaper in the hall or the pom poms in the bedroom. So pretty! What do you love about this home?<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXhJgIG6giuvfebKGYZSSkuZMjMDt0HwiuwkOIKTYCVrn_BmjMtfCsAubK-dv-ypbJ6nfDnJd62Q8EjESxGDvItsdLeGOyNLxK8NXQRdeke3GLGtd5w8fThjGllDy15BKX6Gq2D0ETQVuE/s1600/bo1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

I immediately started dreaming about sipping a cappuccino while looking out over the olive groves, vineyards and a 10th century castle in the distance. And <a href="http://www.villapia.com/">Villa Pia</a> sounds totally family friendly too. The 5 acre grounds offer two swimming pools, play areas and a trampoline. And children are welcome to join cookery and art classes (my girls would be in heaven!). And for us adults they offer cookery classes, pilates and wine tasting (I guess not all at the same time!) among other things. Could I have found my summer vacation 2015?!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I hope you have a lovely day! </div></div>
