Today I'm taking you to Berlin for a look around the beautiful home of American designer and creative Rebecca Goddard.

I love the way she's kept pieces to a minimum, creating a calm and airy feel . . .
21 of the best adjustable desk lamps

20 of the best simple, Scandinavian-style bedside tables
When I asked on Instagram what items people would like me to cover in these 'best of' round-ups, bedside tables came up again and again. And when I think about it, I can understand why.
