Snow in Barcelona


Disclaimer, there is no snow in Barcelona at the moment as far as I am aware but the freezing cold in our part of the world makes me think of moving south until I realised that it may well be cold in Southern Europe, too. Must move further south, say Asutralia or India.

Black' n' white dining room

Photo: Pinterest

A white dining room with a black ceiling is such a great idea for a loft-like space. Visually, it makes the room feel more cosy. I am all for contrasts to keep a space interesting.

Have you tried to paint your ceiling a different colour? If so which colour? What about hot pink for a hallway?

Eclectic garden flat


Pretty bold wallpaper here, eh? Actually, pretty bold choices everywhere. I like the hallway with the different wallpapers and tightly packed gallery wall. And, of course, the bath tub with the claws.

Hope it is warmer where ever you live - we are having a bit of a cold spell here at the moment.

Roccoco wall decor

Photo: Skona Hem Sweden

This wall decor is crazy enough to intrigue me. The rich dark brown walls contrasts nicely with the white and blue china and silver mirror and sconces. I also find the contrast between the formal symmetry and asymmetry very skilfully executed.

Art nouveau staircase

Photo: Pinterest

If you have been following European Chic for a while you now that I adore staircases - espcially spiral staircases. A couple years I went to Brussels which is only 90 minutes by train from Paris and visited the Horta museum which was amazing. Ever since I have been thinking of featuring the staircase from the museum because I like its organic and graceful lines.

Danish cottage


Isn't this little weekend cottage in Denmark adorable? It feels so real! I want a little vase with 'Skurepulver' written on it on my kitchen sink. I like the corner windows because they make the little cottage light and airy.
