I do love a shelfie. They give such a fascinating insight into how people arrange their spaces and what objects they value, and I’m always trawling Pinterest for styling ideas. So when this month’s Urban Jungle Bloggers challenge – a ‘plant shelfie’ – dropped into my inbox, I was rather happy. Several rooms in our home contain alcove shelves which were designed and built for us by a local . . .
Introducing A Splash of Colour
It’s probably fairly obvious from these pages that I have a bit of a thing for grey… In fact, my entire house is decorated in various shades, with little other colour apart from plants. And, although I’ve always admired homes which combine grey and other calming neutrals with eye-catching accents, I’ve shied away from this myself as I’ve been nervous about creating anything overpowering. So, I was . . .
Room Envy | A smart monochrome bathroom
Dark autumn evenings are the perfect excuse for long, indulgent soaks in the tub, so it seemed appropriate to pick a bathroom for this month’s ‘Room Envy’ post. This beautiful black and white example sits in a restored Dutch farmhouse, and it instantly caught my eye because of its sophisticated, minimalist design. It’s a large room, but there are plenty of ideas that could be applied in a space . . .
Decadent Danish design from AYTM
As you may have guessed, I have a bit of an obsession with Scandinavian design. I love its sleek simplicity, its timeless lines and its blend of form and function, and I always get excited when I find a new Nordic brand to lust over. My latest discovery is AYTM, which is based in the Danish city of Aarhus. It was founded by Kathrine and Per Gran Hartvigsen, the duo behind well-known company . . .
Profile | In The Window
Every object tells a story, and one of the things I love most about blogging is uncovering the inspiration and creative processes behind great design; in fact, it’s something I ask every maker, retailer and Instagrammer featured on these pages. So, I was very excited to discover In The Window, a website that enables designers and brands to share their collections – and the stories behind them – . . .
Home tour | A monochrome Swedish apartment
For my latest home-tour post, I couldn’t resist sharing another beautiful Scandinavian apartment that has recently caught my eye. This striking home sits in a turn-of-the-century building in the Swedish city of Gothenburg and is decorated almost entirely in shades of off-white, black and grey.

![[AD - press stay] We had a wonderful couple of days at @treehouse.retreats on the Cowdray Estate in the South Downs National Park earlier this week. There's always something special about staying in a beautifully designed woodland hideaway, but particularly so during this autumn-winter cusp when the weather can change from golden sunshine to magical snow flurries and back again. I'll have a full review on the blog soon, but here's a taster...
