A calm Swedish space high up in the rooftops

I had a bit of an eye watering start today - my alarm went off at 5.30am.  Three coffees down and I'm still wishing I was back in bed. Or at least cosying up on the sofa in this lovely apartment nestled high up in the rooftops of Gothenburg, Sweden.  Exposed beams, arched windows, soft linens, neutral tones - there's something incredibly calm about the space. I love the black chalk wall in the kitchen too. I could definitely see myself padding around here today, how about you?

It's like a little oasis of calm! And despite the low, sloped ceilings it still looks light and airy thanks to the white washed ceilings, walls and beams.

A pile of magos and a simple tray has made a great bedside table for the low-lying bed. Also loving these spaces with low beds...here, here and here (love the white-washed pallets!). Perfect for a loft / attic conversion. 

I spy a Marshall speaker - I've got my eye on one of these for my sitting room. Love them!
Other items I know and love: sitting room - IKEA floor lamp, thonet 209 chair, this chunky knit cushion from H&M, LOHALS rug, Berlingske poster r, find similar blankets at lo+behold. Dining area: Ant chairs, chopping board. Bedroom: linen bedding, The Kinfolk Table book, I love the Nur tray.

Right...time for another coffee (or matchsticks..?).

Have a lovely, calm day!

The happy home of Marij Hessel (volume III)

Monday's can feel a little 'meh', can't they? So this morning, I went in search of a 'happy home' to brighten up the start of our week. Marij Hessel's lovely Dutch space always does the trick (in case you missed them, see also volume I and volume II!). Marij loves to constantly update her home with flea market finds, DIY ideas, mid-century pieces and bright pops of colour which means it doesn't matter how many times you have seen her home, there's always something new to look at! Let's take a peek at what Marij has been up to lately.

Marij Hessel / Enter My Attic

Marij's home makes me want to pepper my home with colour, it really puts a smile on my face - how about you?!

She's added it in such a clever way too - whether through painted furniture, geometric patterned walls, flowers and accessories.

You can keep up to date (and feel inspired) by Marij's projects and updates over at her blog Enter My Attic. 

More cheerful homes to brighten up the start of the week here, here and here.

Have a lovely day!
