Relaxed spring-summer styling from Tine K Home

Relaxed spring-summer styling from Tina K Home | These Four Walls blog

Today's dose of interiors inspiration comes from Danish designer Tine Kjeldsen of Tine K Home. She's just released details of her spring-summer 2017 collection, and it's a real beauty. Entitled 'Boho', it was inspired by the idea of slowing down, enjoying everyday life and focusing on the things which really matter - a theme that's becoming ever more popular in this turbulent world of ours, and . . .

Hotel Danmark | Copenhagen

Hotel Danmark - Copenhagen | These Four Walls blog

I have a bit of design-related travel news to start the week, as I've just discovered that Brochner Hotels, owner of long-time Copenhagen favourite Hotel SP34, is about to launch a brand-new base in the Danish capital. Called Hotel Danmark, it's due to open its doors to guests in April and, from the look of the press photos, it's going to be stunning. The interiors blend sleek Scandinavian . . .

Six of the best…. Scandinavian shelving systems

March 10, 2017

Six of the best Scandinavian shelving systems | These Four Walls blog

Shelving may not be the most exciting item of furniture, but it's perhaps one of the most essential - particularly if you yearn for minimal, clutter-free interiors. With that in mind, I decided to make versatile shelving systems the focus of my second 'Six of the best' round-up (you can see the first one here). As usual, Scandinavia has produced some of the most stylish designs, all with the . . .

Spring table styling from House Doctor | These Four Walls blog

To mark the first day of March, I wanted to share a bit of spring styling inspiration from Danish homeware brand House Doctor, which has just released its latest catalogue. These images show pieces from House Doctor's tableware range, and I was instantly drawn to the calmness and simplicity on display. The collection was inspired by the idea of slowing down and savouring every moment - from . . .

New finds for February 2017 | These Four Walls blog

Over the past few weeks I've been sharing some of the fantastic new-season homeware collections that have emerged from Scandinavia and elsewhere, but there are a few individual product launches which I feel deserve some attention, too. So, time for another round-up of the designs that have appeared on my radar recently... . . .

How to introduce pink into your home

February 21, 2017

How to introduce pink into your home | These Four Walls blog

Pink is most definitely having a bit of a moment. I'm not talking about bright fuschia pink, but more muted, sophisticated shades - pale blush pink, powdery rose pink, and earthy pink with a hint of terracotta (think the colour of Moroccan adobe walls). They've been popping up all over the place for a while now, and with good reason: they're both warming and calming, and they look . . .

Eight years ago today. Carousel posts didn't exist Eight years ago today. Carousel posts didn't exist then so I'm using our anniversary as an excuse to share some of my favourite wedding photos.

I have so many happy memories from the day, but what I remember the most is all the laughter. And the funniest best men's (Chris had four!) speech I've ever heard. I wish we'd had a videographer just to capture that.

Anyway, thanks @small_round_things for the last eight years - and for the 13 before we actually got around to tying the knot!

3.  Country drives
4.  Coming across 17th-century graffiti while house-hunting
5 & 6.  A lazy Sunday stroll on Clevedon Pier, on one of those hazy days where the sea and sky seem to merge into one
7.  Keeping drooping spring blooms going for as long as possible 
8 & 9.  Wisteria at @ntbarringtoncourt in Somerset 
10.  Brunch at the always-wonderful @lunitapasteleria

I now have this design in three different colourways around the house, and this is definitely my favourite to date!

I've been a fan of their sustainable bamboo kitchens and furniture for a long time, so this was a real treat. And the space itself is full of the time-worn textures and beautiful details that always catch my eye.
