images of Marie Olsson Nylander's house via Mixr.Se and many other places on the web.  So I'm sure you've seen it, but I just didn't want to forget it!  Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

I came across the Delfin + Postigo house over at Yatzer and am just amazed by it! When designing my goal is to "tell the story of each client through design". This home is the perfect example. It is so honest and true. Some may find this home offensive, but it truly captures the spirit and the character of the owners and I love that!
"Everything that these words entail, describe and symbolize is the essence of this residence in Madrid were the Spanish duo, fashion designer David Delfin and photographer Gorka Postigo reside. The marriage of these two individuals under one roof is the epitome of sexual elegance. David Delfin is famous for designing garments which extenuate the body giving femininity and sex -appeal for his fashion brand davidelfin. Gorka Postigo is an architect (AKAstudio) turned photographer whose work is expressed through the exploration of nudity and emotions through the human existence." -Yatzer

Two of a kind!

Here's a fine example of fashion and interiors speaking the same language!

This not so innocent pair may try to fool you with a play on silhouettes and a mix of classic with countryside.

The Fall Collection by Steven Alan is once again a daring approach of unique fits, bold colors, and uncompromising attention to detail. Loving the RED!!!!

More Incredible Lighting!

I'm still on my lighting kick! I was just browsing through Emmas Designblogg and I was going crazy over all the fabulous lighting she had in her images! I recognized and have used a lot of these fabulous lights and I love seeing them in other spaces! Check them out and be sure to check on out the links of my sources!!

This light here reminds me of Star Mandala by Stephen White I have used from Emmerson Troop. Absolutely Gorgeous!

You just saw these Double Disc Flush Mount Lights on my post about Gallery L7. I also love those Industrial Floor Lamps. You could pick something like these up at Empiric.

I think this is just stunning and wish I knew where to get it!

The modern spin on the antler floor lamp can be so fun in the right setting! A fresh coat of white paint and an oversized drum shade turn this from eeek to sleek!

One of my favorites! This 50's lucite and string light adds great texture and sculptural elements to any room. I hung it in a family room, but this idea as a table lamp is great as well! My source for this lamp was Dispela Antiques.

Love everything in this image. The light over the table is great and it reminds me a bit of this great Grace Lamp from Charming Unit! And I just love that Sputnik Light (I think it's a light!) on the floor! We used one similar to this in an entry of a very modern home and it was fabulous. They will customize this light for you at REWIRE!

A Little Trip!

How stunning are these shots from the amazing Ngoc Minh Ngo?! She was born in Vietnam, studied in Berkley, CA and Florence, Italy and currently lives in New York. I think her work is a testament to her travels and these images capture a bit of it all!

Since I was little I always wanted a house with black walls. She did a great job of make this space look bright!

Crazy, but soooo fun!

black, golds, and white...and that tufting!

the black gold and white so clean and crisp.


Oversized decorative pillows on the bed is a perfect solution to those that love white comforters!

what great natural light in this space!

THAT SOFA IS AMAZING!

This lovely photo by Birgitta Wolfgang Drejer of the living room of fashion designer Vanessa Bruno has been a favorite of many. Just yesterday Holly at Decor8 posted this as her favorite room. I've been wondering, and I'm sure many others are wondering, where do I get that sofa?! I swear to you...just yesterday before Holly posted this I was searching for this sofa or something similar to this at Floor-Model where I found beautiful things, but not the exact sofa.


Well I found the actual source here along with some other beautiful things! This is the Poeten Sofa designed by Finn Juhl. I also love the "45" Chair as well as the "Chieftans" Chair. Such a sculptural quality of these pieces.
