   Hi! I read a while back that you and several of your designer friends were going to be moving. I was shocked because I made the decision to move that same week (before I read your blog). I’ve been in my current place for 7 yrs and it was a big decision. I felt so much better to read that this seems to be the year of designers moving! I’m excited to read about how all your moves go. I’m sure we’ll be very, VERY happy in our new abodes and neighborhoods! Happy moving to us. xo!

   Love the color, but even more, what caught my eye– was the suspended bookcase… nice way to lighten up a heavy piece of storage.

   Ahhh Scandinavian design. I love Mette’s home and studio spaces, so clean and white with beautiful punches of colour. Definitely one for the bookmarks folder :) Thanks!

   3d furnishings get fairy tale magic with the “prints charming” treatment. sorry, I couldn’t resist :) the bedroom quilt and artwork are deliciosuly complimentary. the little orange dresser and unusual “A-frame” curio hut are super-cute.

   Great Post! love their style and LOVE the wallpaper. I just went onto their site and cannot find the wallpaper category anywhere. Do you happen to know how one could see the different patterns they carry if wanting to purchase?
   Thanks!

    Marvellous! What fun stuff. Plus it is feminine without being saccharine.
