ALFRED STREET

Take a look at this home located in Melbourne. This meticulously designed residence is the creation of Annabelle Berryman and Sarah Henry of Studio Four.  The huge windows. The light and airy interiors. The opening to the courtyard allowing nature to be part of the story.  The Scandinavian and Japanese influences are obvious - combined with original features such as cornicing, picture rails and arches. Stunning. This is something special right?  Read more here.

FATHER RABBIT

Beautiful stores are such an inspiration. Right? I love to find beautiful little gems in new cities albeit this one is a bit far for a quick visit - Aukland! The website however is wonderful too.

K DESK

This desk by Rafa Kids has been on my wish-list for some time. Our little one getting to an age where he would love to sit and do his "work" as he calls it which involves him writing pages and pages of undecipherable words and pictures. Yep I think this beautiful piece is still on the wish-list and I'll have to clear some space in the playroom. Again. Is it just me? I feel like I'm forever dropping stuff off at the charity shop...

TR BULB

We just got one these beauties. It looks great. It's hanging above the dining room table and I absolutely LOVE it.  It's huge and looks so striking. One of the reasons I set up my store is because I wanted to share the beautiful things that I love and use. This is definitely one of them.



You can browse or purchase one here

FORM 45

We are designing our kitchen right now and it goes without saying that we are trawling Pinterest and Insta for inspiration. Wow there's a lot to think about. Maybe I'll just teleport myself to one of these....

Yes I am still alive :) A long blog break has been had, but much needed. Now I'm reinvigorated to sit at my desk and write about beautiful things. Thanks for sticking with me; life just gets so crazy sometimes doesn't it?

THE HOUSE IN THE PINEWOOD

This is pretty much a dream house for me. Rocks, trees, minimal and very Scandinavian although it's in the States.
