Home Tour: Cute Details & Design Classics


I take it as given that you who read these lines love homes and interior designs. Thus, I guess you are a bit like me. When I visit friends or when I get invited for the first time to a new home, I can't help but let my eyes wander around and look at everything - from the bold elements to the cute, little details. And if I am asked whether I'd like a home tour, you already know my answer. 

Now as I am not so lucky as to be constantly invited to new, inspiring homes, I am a bit rude and invited myself into beautiful homes by visiting them through interior magazines. When I popped over at one of my beloved Danish interior magazines, Bolig Magasinet, I spotted this happy home. I love the little, personal details in combination with some all-time design classics such as the Eames rocking chair and 'Hang it All' rack, the Tom Dixon, Louis Poulsen and George Nelson pendants or the Wegner Wishbone chair. And at the end of this little home tour I told myself: I need a nice design classic to enhance my home. Do you have a design classic at home?

New Discovery: Rie Elise Larsen



This week I have discovered an adorable and inspiring design brand from Copenhagen, Denmark. Rie Elise Larsen is an established brand and known beyond Scandinavia's borders. The faces behind this Danish interiors and decoration brand are Rie Elise Larsen herself, a known stylist who has worked for a wide range of fashion and interior design magazines – among others Bo Bedre, Boligmagasinet, and various cookery books. She established the brand back in 2008 and a year later Mette Brix-Riisager joined as partner and managing director. 




The winter collection 2012 continues with their bright trademark classics but has also been broadened in several ways. The whole collections bursts with vibrant colours and typical Scandinavian designs - eye-candy is the least I can say. The paper products have always been a trademark of Rie Elise Larsen thus you can find more than 50 different designs and patterns of wrapping paper. What a great source of inspiration for the Christmas season! Moreover, I am in love with their candleholders and those adorable little owls. Anyone else here loving their products?
