Organized clutter

With a natural colour palette in wood, black and white, you can gather quite a lot of items without making a cluttered impression. Take this apartment for example, located in Malmö, Sweden, and belonging to an interior designer. I fell for the dining room with its large windows, open shelving, green plants and mix of chairs around the table. You can see <a href="http://elledecoration.se/hemma-hos-samlat-intryck-hos-inredaren/" target="_blank">more pictures here</a>.<br /><br /><i>Avec une palette naturelle en bois, noir et blanc, on peut réunir beaucoup d'objets sans pour autant donner l'impression d'un espace encombrée. Prenez cette cet appartement par exemple, situé à Malmö en Suède et habité par un décorateur d'intérieur. J'aime surtout la salle à manger avec ses grandes fenêtres, étagères ouvertes, plantes vertes et mix de chaises autour de la table.

New book: Kitchen Kulture

While looking for kitchen inspiration for a future project at the design school where I teach regularly, I ran into this new book from German editor Gestalten: <a href="http://shop.gestalten.com/kitchen-kulture.html" target="_blank">Kitchen Kulture.</a> Considering that the kitchen is the new living room, ie the multi-functional hub of the home, the book showcases traditional, Nordic or futuristic kitchens of the 21st century.<br /><span style="font-family: inherit;">"<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px;">The kitchens presented in this book are testing grounds for environmentally-friendly innovation as well as lively spaces that inspire a higher quality of life by prompting better eating habits and bringing together family and friends".</span></span><br />Here below you can see a few sneak peeks and <a href="http://shop.gestalten.com/kitchen-kulture.html" target="_blank">here</a> you can buy the book.<br /><br /><i>A la recherche d'inspiration cuisine pour un futur projet à l'école design où j'enseigne régulièrement, je suis tombée sur ce nouveau livre de la maison d'édition allemand Gestalten: <a href="http://shop.gestalten.com/kitchen-kulture.html" target="_blank">Kitchen Kulture</a>.

Bye bye white walls!

You might have seen this apartment around already, but I'm showing it here anyway because it's a great example of what is happening in Scandinavia right now (well at least in Sweden): bye bye white walls, hello dark colours! Remember <a href="http://lamaisondannag.blogspot.fr/2014/09/scandinavian-kitchen-trends.html" target="_blank">this post</a> about darker colours in the kitchen? Or <a href="http://lamaisondannag.blogspot.fr/2014/11/1-apartment-3-styles.html" target="_blank">this apartment</a> styled in three différent ways?<br />Well, walls in muted tones of blue, green, grey or even black are now popping up everywhere!<br /><br /><i>Vous avez peut-être déjà vu cet appartement, mais je le montre quand même ici aussi parce que c'est un très bon exemple de ce qui se passe en Scandinavie (ou en Suède au moins) en ce moment: bye bye murs blancs, hello couleurs foncées! Vous vous souvenez de <a href="http://lamaisondannag.blogspot.fr/2014/09/scandinavian-kitchen-trends.html" target="_blank">ce post</a> sur les couleurs plus foncées en cuisine? Ou de <a href="http://lamaisondannag.blogspot.fr/2014/11/1-apartment-3-styles.html" target="_blank">cet appartement</a> relooké en 3 styles différents?</i><br /><i>Et bien, les murs en nuances éteintes de bleu, vert, gris ou même noir font maintenant leur apparition un peu partout!</i><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqOpJycwaELslsrDpGGzTALpzoM6MfTwBIeTr7mwV-S1p7U9LMo_KbBO8WchrI-fJuLxAA4nrJJv5H1HyMCZDaehrpCcwr1FY_w5LC7O9ekhjsfJuH8XXVLHaYm-4NUOnfBYrnvpYnfqg/s1600/SFDC21B7A16D4C0430D98B45BA0226F7C3C.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="427" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqOpJycwaELslsrDpGGzTALpzoM6MfTwBIeTr7mwV-S1p7U9LMo_KbBO8WchrI-fJuLxAA4nrJJv5H1HyMCZDaehrpCcwr1FY_w5LC7O9ekhjsfJuH8XXVLHaYm-4NUOnfBYrnvpYnfqg/s1600/SFDC21B7A16D4C0430D98B45BA0226F7C3C.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7KQYKmV4SPIajZsMGCiMmjD2dZVlWZVnL82j8yaHdcvpSUZF2M5Aj89eKU8XyrnrVtAxysKP7Ic8MuS0PM5ttF5_bofXRMQRkO9eDBHRbBjfRSpSywfwCoVH9xzU9BnYHsKTkWdraO0E/s1600/SFDA706D20D5EAB41AA8D5F5DE674AB11F9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="427" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7KQYKmV4SPIajZsMGCiMmjD2dZVlWZVnL82j8yaHdcvpSUZF2M5Aj89eKU8XyrnrVtAxysKP7Ic8MuS0PM5ttF5_bofXRMQRkO9eDBHRbBjfRSpSywfwCoVH9xzU9BnYHsKTkWdraO0E/s1600/SFDA706D20D5EAB41AA8D5F5DE674AB11F9.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />In order to keep a feeling of space and light despite the dark walls, the trick is to go for light furniture, a decluttered decoration and leave ceilings, doors and windows in white. You can also paint only the lower part of the wall or leave some walls white to avoid overloading. Details in leather, wood and rustic ceramics add warmth to the room, not to forget the green plants.<br />The great styling is done by the talented <a href="http://sarahwidman.se/" target="_blank">Sarah Widman</a> and her team for <a href="http://www.alvhemmakleri.se/hem-till-salu/obj17735_1390885741" target="_blank">Alvhem</a>.<br /><br /><i>Pour garder l'impression d'espace et de luminosité malgré les murs foncés, l'astuce consiste à opter pour un mobilier clair, une déco épurée et laisser blanc les plafonds, portes et fenêtres. On peut aussi peindre que la partie inférieure du mur ou laisser certains murs en blanc pour ne pas surcharger l'espace. Des détails en cuir, bois et céramique rustique apportent de la chaleur à la pièce, sans oublier les plantes vertes.</i><br /><i>Une déco très réussi par la talentueuse <a href="http://sarahwidman.se/" target="_blank">Sarah Widman</a> et son équipe pour <a href="http://www.alvhemmakleri.se/hem-till-salu/obj17735_1390885741" target="_blank">Alvhem</a>.</i><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
