I'm officially in hibernation mode! The holidays are here which for me is a time to slow down and relax.
I recently repainted our bedroom grey, adding a few updates here & there. It's mass cozy and has become the perfect spot to watch a movie late into the evenings.
I've gathered a few bedrooms which have inspired me recently....
Do you hibernate for the winter?

There are a few thing I have come to appreciate. First? Kitchens large & open enough to have a nice eating area -- dining table -- in the kitchen. I love how the flow of this kitchen is open to the table & not stashed over in the corner in this home.
Second? Interesting lighting. Nordic homes in particular always have the most daring (creative) lighting choices. I love this homes natural charisma & laid back style. The kitchen in particular is fantastic!

Earlier this week I shared with you the first part of this amazing Swedish home tour (here) - how dreamy bright it is! The upstairs is equally charming, in particular the bathroom.
This home is one of those effortless homes ... cozy & comfortable and easily maintains it's style. It's not overly stylized (ahem, black & white mania!) but has a clear perspective. And? I love the abundance of lighting & lamps throughout the space.

This home is dreamy. A real show stopper. Cozy, comfortable. I'm sold!
Which is great, because this home is actually for sale. The general layout of the living space on the first floor has an amazing open flow and enough white to brighten up any grey winter day. The eat in kitchen is my favorite aspect of the house .. that marble countertop is so stunning!
And? I'm loving all the windows - so much character. So farmhouse-ish.

I am inspired by the visual contrast in these spaces. Bright and such fantastic, yet sublte layers of color ... such as the red wheels & green/yellow paintings in the living room. And always the layers of black.
Another love? The wood floors in the bedroom & kitchen. So raw & unfussy.

This house caught me as a housey-house with it's familiar house shape. Super simple but has this intriguing character to it, I just want to know more! And you know it's more than meets the eye and certainly has a cool story to it.
Designed by the Candadian firm Bioi, the Warburg House, located on a farm space in Canada, had a goal to create a contemporary yet simple and energy efficient design for less than $100,000. While the home is not huge, that is a mighty goal!
I love the juxtaposition of the new home and the old shed, connected by the deck. It's a genuine addition to a new space, so lovely. And the dark exterior with the vertical exterior wood is amazing.

So clever! Annaleenas hem has come up with an amazing Tube Lamp DIY. Did you ever consider making a lamp out of a poster tube?
I had not, but now i'm eager to make one, you?! Plus the black of the tube and cord is perfectly graphic and fresh.

This is what your space would look like if you sold everything and got rid of all the junk. And if you had excellent light and great sensibility. Plus, that marble table top is just fantastic.
Perfect combination. So lovely. And of course, such great light!

I'm totally loving the beautiful Trianon pendants . It reminds me of a doily but in a modern & clever sort of way. I also think the volume of space they take up is fantastic.
And I can just image the pattern of light that the Trianon lights cast. Available in 2 sizes: Grand and Petit. [and that fun light in the middle of the bottom image? That's the Bright Side]
This is a Summerhouse? I just don't think I'd be able to stay away from this amazing little spot! I of course love the openness & light... but the open kitchen and the woodstove out in the open is fantastic.
The floor is also intriguing. It looks like concrete, but is actually tiles. Tiles of what, I am not sure. And the open doors & window spaces? We don't even have to talk about that! So great.
