Welcome to Home Design Ideas . Today we will share for you about Timeless Charm in the Heart of Gamla Enskede, Sweden. Do you ever hear a word for the first time, look it up out of curiosity, and then suddenly hear it everywhere that same week? The same thing happens in interiors. For example, it feels like a strange coincidence that pale blue has appeared in all of the last three homes I’ve shared, including the cottage on the Danish coast , the Oslo apartment and now here, in a house in Gamle Enskelde, Sweden. Not only that, but it’s in the finer details too. This time, a very pretty “sweet pea” pattern, which I first noticed in the curtains in Friday’s home, has now appeared on the curtains here. But there are plenty of lovely, unique details in this house too, which is why I couldn’t resist taking you on a tour today. Nestled in the quiet village, the turn-of-the-century house has been decorated with a wonderful mix of old and new. Keep a look out for the blue window frames i...

Welcome to Home Design Ideas . Today we will share for you about Welcome inside Juni's Oslo Apartment. From a home on the coast of West Denmark on Tuesday to the Norwegian capital today, there’s no denying it hasn’t been a very Scandinavian week here on the blog. While the coastal property was set among the dunes and awash with soothing pale blues, this beautiful light-filled flat in Old Oslo is flooded with golden sunshine that highlights touches of red, burgundy, yellow — and even light blue (which appears to be a favourite right now!). The flat belongs to Juni Halseth Strenberg , who recently moved from this vibrant home . Granted, the renovation of her new home is still a work in progress, but I love seeing how her furniture has settled right in. There are many things I love about Juni’s unique style, but what really caught my eye were the bedrooms. They are narrow, yes, but they make a true statement, with the ceilings becoming a design feature in themselves, while also h...

Welcome to Home Design Ideas . Today we will share for you about A Dreamy Danish Summer House by the Sea. It dawned on me today that it’s exactly eight weeks until Midsummer, the unofficial start of the Scandinavian summer holidays. Can you believe it?  One of the things I love most about Scandinavia is how seriously summer is taken. It’s not unusual for people to take a minimum of three weeks of uninterrupted leave. After the long, dark winter, this is the season everyone has been waiting for, and you can feel it everywhere. There’s a lightness in the air, a summery smile in every coastal village, and a sense that life is meant to be enjoyed outdoors. People flock to the sea for morning, noon and evening dips, zip around in every kind of boat imaginable, and gather for long, lazy meals in the sunshine. Just the way summer should be!  The summer houses are part of the charm too, simple, understated and beautiful, often designed to reflect their surroundings. And then there...

Welcome to Home Design Ideas . Today we will share for you about Breathing Room: A Beautiful Swedish Home. I was so happy to hear that so many of you loved the Norwegian home tour earlier this week - it certainly helped that we had such a handsome guide! Today, I thought we’d go for something a little different. One of the things I’ve always loved about Scandinavian design is the calmness that comes with the “less is more” philosophy. Walking into a decluttered home, like the one you’re about to witness, makes me instantly take a deep exhale in and out. It’s instantly calming! I also love how, when a home is pared back, you can see each carefully selected item in its entirety - the colour, the form, the material, the texture - everything. So, this Swedish home is dedicated to anyone who needs a little calm, or some breathing room, to take with you into the weekend! Granted, this is even more decluttered than usual since it’s for sale, but I still love the light...
