House Doctor | brightening up the kitchen |

For me, when it's winter time, one of the the best ways to remain cheerful is to go to the kitchen and bake... and try not to look out the window to find out how dark it is already. 

So here's a bit of inspiration for the kitchen, from the Danish brand House Doctor's A/W 2013 catalogue.Neutral colours for ceramics, colour blocked and degrades, and some funky neon details...all to brighten up your kitchen!

Twine wrapped jar

An easy DIY project for a lazy Sunday. All you need: an empty glass bottle (I used a Cocio bottle), glue and twine. Spread the glue around the bottle (about 5 cm at a time). Hold the twine with one hand and spin the bottle with the other. I started at the bottom because the top, becoming narrower, is more tricky. Took me less than 15 min! Add some colour details for a personalized result.

Bloomingville Catalogue SS2013

I love it when the new catalogues from my favourite web-shops start making their appearance. Now that 2012 is behind us I'm feeling all excited with the prospect of days getting longer and brighter, and I crave for images of homes dressed for warmer days.  Yesterday I went through the new Spring/Summer catalogue from Bloomingville and decided to share some of my favourite images and tendencies for the next season.

Scandinavian style - OYOY

Today I give you a little taste of the OYOY universe. OYOY is  a Danish interior design company that gets it's inspiration from Scandinavian style and Japanese design. They focus on the quality of the materials, the shapes and the combination of colours to provide a cosy, clean and beautiful feeling to their products. You can notice a combination of pastels and neons, of light wood, black and white, and happy colours and simple patterns, like we've grown used to see in Scandinavian homes. You can find all these images and more on their web site here.
