A Relaxed Mid-century Inspired Danish Home

Living just over the bridge from Copenhagen, I'm often asked 'how often do you visit?' The answer is "not enough". Seriously, this is a crying shame - I absolutely love the Danish style. There's something relaxed, bohemian and achingly cool about it. It's also a quietly confident look which relishes in imperfection. Take the Danish home of Anne Hundborg - a self-employed web developer and graphic designer, her boyfriend Jonas, five children (combined), a dog and a cat (yes that's one "full house," laughs Anne) as an example.  Located in the city of Randers on the Jutland peninsula, Anne has decorated her home under the ethos "the rules are there ain't no rules" (....ha! I recognise that line - do you?!) and chooses to "mix all sorts of textures, materials, colours, and decades." Look out for mid-century touches and wonderful, playful details throughout! 

Photography / design: Anne Hundborg

What a charming home?! I love all the mid-century touches and artwork in particular - how about you?

Get the look: dining room - Panthella floor lamp, Posters / prints: Bambi and Heels and Resting Feet by Paper Collective. sitting room - Söderhamn sofa, landscape prints by Enklamide, SINNERLIG Pendant lamp. Children's bedroom - Doughnuts poster from Desenio.

You can see more of Anne's lovely home over on her Instagram feed here (many items are tagged too), and a whole load more of 'great dane' (sorry) inspiration in this archive (don't miss a Danish home full of vintage finds, the dreamy home of a writer, an eclectic Copenhagen apartment with attitude in particular - all very different, all truly inspiring!).

Have a great day!

A vintage-inspired family home in rural belgium

Hejsan hejsan! We've taken to the high seas (actually they're not that high- the Baltic sea is beautifully calm today) and heading to the island of Rügen in Germany - I've never been and super excited, any tips?! I hope you've got some fun plans for the week ahead too? Adventures aside, I thought we'd kick off the week with this lovely country house in Belgium. The home belongs to Liza van der Stouwe founder of Atelier Rozijntjes, her husband Vincent and their three children and has been beautifully captured by Avenue Design Studio. Think fabulous tiles, a wood-burning stove, vintage finds, modern touches and oodles of charm!

What a wonderful family home? I love the children's bedrooms - think I might have to steal a few ideas, how about you? 

And how about all those vintage touches? Liza finds many of them in second hand stores but I also find Etsy a wonderful source for everything from industrial pendant lights to reclaimed school desks and many of the stores ship worldwide. 

To get the full scoop, nip over to Avenue Lifestyle where the talented creative duo Holly Marder and Hedda Pier share some more info on this lovely home and insight on where things are from.

Looking for a little more inspiration from Belgium? Why not pour yourself a slow brew and take a peek inside the eclectic world of Bea Mombaers (you can stay there too!), and a relaxed Antwerp home (one of my all time favourites). Oh so fabulous?!

Have a wonderful start to the week!
