I have some interesting things to look forward to.

First of all almost complete 1st phase of our home modernization

and already started to get excited about the big changes on the ground floor.

What you think about combining studio with dining room? 

We are looking for super long (over 3 meters) piece which would act as a working bench for me and on the special occasions would transform into dining table to entertain guests in a "creative space".

doll house curiosity cabinet back on the wall yay!

I received fantastic commission for my graphic so now going through sweet sleepless nights working on it like crazy. To all of that I will join the crew on Hope Street Festival in Liverpool on 16th September.

Here is a little sneak peak of everything that is happening now:

ink, white paper sculpture, pin art - all in progress

Small room big bed little boy

Samuel's room is finally finished! 

We still have some decoration and accessorising to do, 

but I couldn't wait to show the result of Tony's hard work! 

We managed to create spacious boy bedroom with funky bunk bed in room as small as 2.1m x 3.4m with lots of storage

At the back of the room Tony build large bunk bed with two storage boxes on wheels. 

Ae opened the ceiling to give impression of space  

and installed floating panel over the bed 

(lights which you can turned down work brilliant at the bed time).

Everything is painted white which gives amazing light and freshness.

Shelfs, step stool and wardrobe system - IKEA.

Rug- Habitat

Hang it All - Vitra

In the future when Sam is big enough to move to the spacious loft, 

part of this room (currently hosting wardrobe) 

will be converted to shower room with glass wall and sliding door. 

The rest of the space will be used as library/ study/ day bed/ guest sleeping zone.

DIY project: castle turned into bookshelf

have a look at our new addition to Samuel's bedroom

- old castle toy turned into bookshelf!

-------------------------

forgotten toys look so sad, so Tony has new idea!

-------------------

work in progress

castle had to be lined up, few elements rotated/ mirrored

-----

Ted Glenn from Postman Pat series takes main position on the castle walls- added by Sam,

Samuel's first shoes- added by me :)

---------------------

------------------

finished!  prefect for books and figures display

black & white

black and white always looks good never goes out of fashion, seems to be strong trend especially in scandinavian design favoured by bloggers like emma and annalena

inspired by this image from nice*room blog

love the textures and graphic use of black

--------------------------------------------------------

i decided to do our guest bedroom in bold contrasts!, this is just a preview as we still need to paint the walls and stand nice timber floors hidden under this old carpet, but hey, this makes me feel better :) little progress every day
