[Advertisement - this is a paid partnership with Claybrook, but as always all words and opinions are my own] I love creating mood boards: they’re a great way to gather inspiration in the early stages of planning an interior scheme, and they act as a handy visual guide which you can reference going forwards. And they’re huge fun – I sometimes put them together even when I have no particular . . .
Home tour | A minimalist, Scandinavian-style house in Portugal
The subject of my latest home-tour post might look like a minimalist Scandinavian pad, but it’s actually set in the beautiful Portuguese city of Porto (which, by the way, is well worth visiting).

You can see the ‘before’ photos and my inspiration for the room here, but essentially the aim was to create a minimalist yet soft scheme using grey, white and black – a clutter-free, . . .
Home tour | A Swedish new-build dressed in white and beige
For today’s home tour I'm taking you to Uppsala, Sweden, where interior-styling duo Sundling Kickén have decorated a beautiful show apartment in a newly built complex. New-build homes can often look cold and uninviting, but not this one. Dressed in white and beige and warmed by natural textures such as wood, wool and linen, it’s somehow airy and cosy at the same time. There are also black . . .
