Design Museum Denmark

Danish Design - I Like it! exhibition at Design Museum Denmark.

This is one cool exhibition that I would love to check out - Jasper Morrison has curated and designed this 'Danish Design - I Like it!' exhibition for Design Museum Denmark in Copenhagen. This has been conceived to celebrate the name change of the museum (previously known as 'Kunstindustrimuseet' - that was a good move) as well as the cool design history that Denmark has. Love the use of textiles on the back panels as well as the colours. I'd also want to leave with most of furnishings too...

I Like...

Reclaimed wood bench and dining table from Canvas.

Reclaimed wood mirror. Cute dog.

I like...these cool recycled solid cedar furnishings from Canvas. The solid cedar wood is salvaged from New York City rooftop water tanks, which means they have a great natural aged patina finish. It's always great to see sustainability done so well and so stylishly.

Some more Royal Wedding commemorative tea towels from several designers - it's no surprise that most of these are now out of stock. Enjoy the Royal Wedding tomorrow - hope you're wearing your tiara and pearls.





Royal Wedding Tea Towels

C&W Royal Wedding tea towel



William & Catherine Royal Wedding tea towel

Well, thank goodness the Royal Family belatedly approved to have tea towels allowed as souvenirs for the Royal Wedding - previously they were off the list of commemorative items as they were considered 'too disposable'. There have been many designs and it's great to see that not all of them are stuffy. I like these ones from John Lewis - classic and simple.

The Home of Finn Juhl

The home of Finn Juhl

Art by Vilhelm Lundstrom.

Here is the home of the late Danish Architect and designer Finn Juhl - now fully re-installed in Ordrupgaard, the French Impressionist museum in Northern Copenhagen. Juhl's home acts as a portfoilo of his vast range of design work - he designed the house and the furniture as well as many other details - there are even prototypes for his cutlery designs. It is a great narrative of 1950's Danish design as well as being an interior that many aspire to create these days. I'm impressed how modern it still is.

Fashion Meets Decor: Shades of Neutral

via, clothing via

Happy Tuesday, Cuties! Is your week off to a good start? Does your wardrobe reflect your decor?

Are you drawn to romantic dresses and shabby chic chandeliers? Perhaps your closet filled with little black dresses and stilettos, and your bedroom is glammed out with sexy fur throws, sultry candles and dark rich walls. I think one's closet is always a great place to look when looking for decor inspiration.

Oh... and I totally want those espadrilles... (just sayin')!

Fireplace Required.

Winter has arrived. Today's cold gusty weather has given us an indication of what we're in for over the following months - which means for some cranking up the fireplace. I don't have one but like the look of this compact wood burning stove in a California guesthouse by Alexandra Angle.

Happy Monday, Cuties! 

 Do you celebrate Easter? How was your holiday?

We decided to forgo tradition this year and met family at the beach for 

seafood. It was a nice change. The weather was fabulously perfect. We 

took the roof off the jeep and enjoyed the warm breeze on our skin and 

some good driving tunes. The day was completed with a stroll along the 

beach and some sand between our toes. This could very well become a

regular tradition. Do you have any unusual traditions?

This lovely space is as colorful as painted Easter eggs or jellybeans that the bunny might leave behind for you to find. If you celebrate Easter than what are your plans? Will you be hosting Easter dinner at your home this year? 

Rooms with a View

A View of Naples Through a Window, 1824



Woman Embroidering, 1811



Woman at the Window, 1822

In Front of the Mirror, 1827

If I was in New York right now, I'd be checking out this interior inspired exhibition at the Met. It is called Rooms with a View - The Open Window in the 19th Century and all works focused on the "romantic motif of the open window". I like the hushed sparse rooms and the contemplative moments.

Simply Smitten: Katrin Cargill

via

This London townhouse by interior designer, Katrin Cargill, is so utterly charming. I am simply smitten by all of the lovely little details from the wallpapered closet, to the candy cane stripes and built in bookshelves with stories just waiting to transport one to a different time and place. I could use a bit of a reprieve in a cozy London townhouse after school vacation week. It has been fun... lots of sleepovers, lots of teens, and another college visit scheduled today with our son for accepted students day. If I haven't been by your blog to say hello I apologize, it has been quite the busy week.

Thank you to everyone who entered my Atlanta Bartlett giveaway! The winner chosen by Random.org

is Elizabeth of Pretty Pink Tulips. Congrats, Elizabeth, just email me which book you would like.

Happy Easter All.
