Eclectic in Paris

Art buyer François Leblanc spends much of his time traveling around Europe and South America preparing exhibitions for Gallery S. Bensimon. For his apartment in Paris, he asked design studio A+A Cooren to create a space for him that would mix classical and contemporary elements, allow him to entertain and be a private space, too. You can see why he's more than happy with the results. More here on Marie Claire Maison.

Weekend

Happy weekend! Hope it's a lovely one. After a week of rain it's supposed to clear up at the end, so looking forward to getting outside and enjoying the autumn colours before they go. How about you?

Rustic Elegance

Fantastically styled, the Örebro home of Caroline and Jonas and their family is filled with fascinating things lovingly collected at flea markets and through various online stores. What I admire most, though, is Caroline's extraordinary eye — she puts together the most disparate things and it all works beautifully. Love. More here.

Weekend

Happy weekend! Hope it's a lovely one. The weather is looking stormy here for us, so catching up on movies and going out for a leisurely brunch are looking like good options. How about you?

Weekend

Happy weekend! Hope it's a lovely one. We'll be keeping things low key as Andrew and I are both dealing with summer colds right now — a good soup and a movie or two are sounding pretty good right about now. How about you?

Sweetness and Light

The perfect perch. Love the sculptural magazine rack and light.

Weekend

Happy weekend! Hope it's a lovely one. We'll be catching up with a bit of movie watching and (if the weather isn't too messy — it's been rain mixed with snow here) a walk around the neighborhood, too. How about you?

Simple Pleasures

A good night's sleep. I'm still adjusting to Daylight Savings Time — the extra sunshine is nice, but the mornings are still a little tough.

Warmly Industrial

An old waffle factory near Lille, France, has been transformed by Fanny and Pascal François into an airy family home that's a warm and inviting space despite its industrial origins. Love. More here on Rum.

A Brief Pause

I've been enjoying a lovely New Year's Day off with Andrew, so today's posts will be up a little later than usual. Hope you had a lovely day too and see you soon.

Weekend

Happy weekend! Hope it's a lovely one. It's been a very busy week here for us both, replete with deadlines, so we're both really looking forward to a little down time — and a predicted snowstorm will make it that much cosier to curl up on the couch for a bit. How about you?

Weekend

Happy weekend! Hope it's a lovely one. It's been a busy past few days for us here, so we're looking forward to a little down time. How about you?
