SCAPE HOUSE - KOUICHI KIMURA, FORM ARCHITECTS

Saying even a few words about this project will be too much already.  Except that I love pretty much everything about it-  the built in benches and shelves, the polished concrete finishes, the whites and contrasting greys, the windows framing the views so specifically .... light, bright and minimal

FEAR LESS NESS

....Let us then go into this bright new week with bravery in our hearts and a sober fierceness in our steps.
Let us embrace each new day for the gifts it may hold, let us embrace each new day and share the gifts we behold.
Let us be bold, let us be brave, let us be grateful,  let us create the stories we want to be told...

A little Monday night rambling from my desk

Have a super week, be strong, be brave, believe in yourself, be you... xx

2015 MOON PHASES CALENDAR

These beautiful and original moon phase calendars by A Little Lark are available on Etsy

This is what they say ....  
"Simple, scientific, modern and beautiful. Make a statement in your house with this gorgeous art print!

Make year 2015 a year were you keep track of full and new moons, plus also know the day of the week. These large wall calendars are hand printed on sturdy 22" x 30" Stonehenge paper. Paper is machine-made in the USA of 100% cotton neutral pH two natural deckles and two cut edges. Print looks great both pinned up or framed. There is a 1.75" border around printed area, so paper can be cut down to desired size if needed. Each piece is signed on lower right in pencil by the artist, Christy Nyboer. 

* We designed this poster so you can cut the lower half off after the year is through and enjoy the upper square portion as a stunning print of the moon."

I'm torn between the gold on black or the copper on black - which do you like most?

HK LIVING CROSS CHOPPING BOARDS

Beautiful mango wood chopping boards from HK Living  Oh so lush, and perfect for my dream kitchen.  I love the curved edges and the ' x ' adds that fun element!  The size is perfect too, and can be used to serve some cheese and crackers on, or some crusty bread sandwiches.... 

Speaking of which I think its roundabout lunchtime for me! 

They are available online via zus en zo wonen and also from lil woonwebwinkel as a set of three

COTTESLOE - BARWON HEADS RESIDENCE BY ALTERECO DESIGN

Spacious with lots of natural light, this Barwon Heads home, designed by Melbourne based studio Altereco Design - is inviting and stylishly furnished throughout. The open plan living area spreads out onto the outdoor terrace and pool area with ease.  A neutral and natural palette - I love how the black elements on the facade has been drawn into the interior as well; the bathroom with its dark tiles adds drama and the use of wood adds a bit of warmth and calm.  

I would love to get my hands on one of those black lampshades over the dining room table.  I wonder if anyone knows where its from?

Oh and did I mention that perfectly polished concrete floor - j'adore!
