For my latest home-tour post I'm taking you back to a Danish property which I've featured before and which has recently undergone a bit of a makeover. Located north of Copenhagen, it's named the PH House in honour of renowned designer and architect Poul Henningsen, who once used it as his summerhouse, and was renovated by Norm Architects following a devastating 2014 fire. They've now been back to . . .

No matter how minimalist we think we are, clutter always seems to accumulate - and finding enough storage to keep everything neat and tidy can feel like an endless battle, especially for those of us with more compact homes. A coffee or side table with integrated storage makes an easy yet stylish solution, so for the latest post in my 'best of' series I've rounded up 21 of my favourites . . .
A soft, minimalist beige bedroom: the reveal
[Advertisement - this post features PR products, but all words and opinions are my own] I've talked before about the importance of taking your time when decorating, and with the makeover of our main bedroom I really have (partly unintentionally) practised what I preach. I first shared the plans back in November and always wanted to get things right rather than rushing, but there were some . . .

16 of the best portable lamps for indoor & outdoor use
The arrival of spring means many of us are turning our attention towards getting our gardens, balconies and terraces ready for the warmer months - especially as meeting up outdoors is going to be the only way to socialise (here in the UK at least) for a while to come. So, I thought I'd dedicate my latest 'best of' post to portable lamps that you can use outside, move around the house or even take . . .
How to decorate & furnish small spaces
Small spaces can be incredibly tricky, and they're something many of us struggle with - whether we live in a compact home or we have one tiny room that's difficult to get right. It's certainly something I've had to address when renovating my own house, which has a narrow galley-style kitchen and a minuscule bathroom, and it's often why my design clients ask for help . . .

Hannah's beautiful house dates from the 1900s and has been given a thorough makeover to turn it into a soothing, clutter-free sanctuary that's awash with natural light. The results are elegant yet wonderfully relaxed . . .
The joy of spring blossom
When I interviewed textile artist Charlotte Wakefield earlier this week, her comments about rediscovering the joy in what you do really struck a chord. I'm lucky to do something I love for a living, whether it's writing, photographing, styling or helping design clients with their homes, but I know just how easy it is to get bogged down in deadlines and expectations . . .
Profile | Charlotte Wakefield of Woven Form
You might remember that last year I decided to learn something new and started an online weaving course.
