Villa E | Studio KO

When I bumped into this photo a few minutes ago I couldn't do anything else but take a deep breath and picture myself taking a shower in this unique bathroom... then I made a quick virtual home tour and... oh my!!! I wish I could spend my holidays here!! Take a look by yourself...

Well?! Isn't it just amazing? The villa is a project by Studio KO  and is situated on the top of a hill in the Moroccan mountain region. The building matches perfectly with the surrounding landscape, almost disguising itself, while the interior is a mix of different textures and materials, a combination of french minimalism and typical moroccan decor. The traditional plasters coexist with the linear basculant windows, the ancient carpets and local handcraft combine with modern furniture and contemporary linen curtains... All is about a happy encounter and, as often happens in such situations, the result could be summarized in one word: perfection! For more pics click here.

Line Kay lives here

These images are from the home where talented stylist and photographer Line Kay lives in Oslo (for more pics click here). The wooden elements such as the coffee table or the bench, and the wicker details get along perfectly with the predominant white of the interior. The result is a warm and welcoming space. I particularly liked the mix of bowls of the open cup board in the kitchen and the log used as a side table. I suggest you to keep an eye on Line's blog Vintagepiken for more inspiration!

En esta casa vive la talentuosa fotografa y stylist Line Kay en Oslo. Los elementos en madera como la mesa ratona o el banquito, así como los detalles en mimbre, quedan muy bien en un ambiente en donde el blanco predomina. El resultado es un hogar calido y acojedor. Me encanta la mezcla de bowls y platos dejados a vista en la cocina y el tronco pintado de blanco usado como mesita al lado del sillon.

Minimal country

When it comes to country homes I prefer the minimal ones, cut to the essential, with a few furniture pieces and concrete, like this Norfolk villa by David Khon Architects. For more pictures click here.

DIY | Hanging planter

via My Dubio

How about hanging plants instead of placing them? Hanging plants, at least outdoor, is no new at all, of course, but usually the hangers are made of ordinary horrible plastic... This rope hanger, on the other hand, is just perfect! I can picture it hanging under our country home porch or even in our livingroom. I'll see if I can make it this weekend, by the way, the full tutorial is here.

Que opinan de colgar las plantas en vez de apoyarlas? Colgar las plantas, por lo menos afuera, no es una novedad, obvio. Pero por lo general las macetas colgantes son feas, hechas de plastico y de formas bastante ordinarias. Este florero, al contrario, me parece perfecto tanto para la galeria de nuestra casa en el campo que para nuestro living. Este fin de semana me voy a poner en marcha a ver que sale. El tutorial completo está aquí.

House doctor | Moments 2014

I was slipping through the pages of House Doctor's new catalogue 2014 Moments and among those beautiful compositions I selected some images that captured my attention. The collection focuses on perfect imperfections, in other words it aims to experiment with creativity and contrasts. The catalogue includes some Christmas stylings that I'll keep on mind when the time comes!

Estaba ojeando el nuevo catalogo 2014 de House Doctor y entre las varias lindas composiciones he seleccionado estas imagenes. El lema de la colección es "perfectas imperfecciones", y la idea es experimentar decorando con creatividad y contrastes. El catalogo incluye unas decoraciones navideñas muy soft que tendré en consideración en el momento oportuno! Si te gustaron las fotos y queres ver el resto fíjate aquí.

Luona | Simple furniture

While I was checking over Pinterest looking for some inspiration for my son's room renovation I bumped into finnish brand Luona. I love these simple and unpretentious designs. I think I'll try to build a box for Lorenzo when we get back to Argentina next month.

Mientras buscaba inspiración para renovar la habitación de mi hijo en Pinterest, encontré el brand finlandes Luona. Me encantan estos diseños simples y sin pretensión. Creo que me voy a animar a construir un cubo para Lorenzo cuando volvamos a la Argentina el mes que viene.
