Kitka Blog

Do you have a crush on clean, modern Japanese and Scandinavian design? Yeah, I know... who doesn't? It's quite hard to resist especially since their less-is-more approach is so alluring... the attention to detail, practicality, focus on using natural materials. Thanks to the lovely Irene Hoofs at Bloesem, I have discovered the new decor8 blog of the week: Kitka. Irene talked about this lovely couple, Juli and John, who are shop owners -- they own Mjölk which has a retail location in Toronto and a website for the rest of us -- who love and specialize in Japanese and Scandinavian design. They show lots of beautiful products on their gorgeous blog, here's a glimpse of the interesting things that you can see and learn about on Kitka.

I'm in love with their black and white Corona globe designed by Nendoglobe in Japan - it's gorgeous. Juli and John recently visited Tokyo and shared their journey on their blog which I spent the entire morning reading about -- drooling at times -- over their finds and experiences there -- like those delicious donuts in glassine paper. You can read all about their Tokyo adventures here. Fun!
