Monochrome and mid-century in lovely Swedish spaces

It's no secret there's an incredible amount of interior inspiration to be found on the websites of Swedish estate agents. Just enter Stadshem, Alvhem, Entrance, 55kvadrat, or Fantastic Frank into the My Scandinavian Home search box and you'll have an entire morning of beautiful homes to look at (obsessed, who me?!). One of my latest faves is the international real estate who specialise in high-end homes (a girls got to dream?!) but also some 'light' versions too.  Here are some examples of the spaces found in Eklund homes of late....monochrome, mid-century, designer, what's not to love?!

Beautiful! Look at that morning light in the bedroom?! Another duvet day option perhaps?!

A few items I know and love: Tulip table, Eames sidechairs (15% off right now!), Knoll diamond chair, Vee Speers print, Design House Stockholm work lamp, string shelving.

I'm in a little bit of a rush today as I've got lots of writing to do and I've promised the girls I would take them on an adventure this afternoon- go, go, GO!

Have a lovely day! And oh, back tomorrow with a lovely Swedish house tour! See you then!

Duvet day in this calm monochrome bedroom?

While we're up at the summer cottage this July we've been enjoying lovely lie-ins. By that I mean waking up around 9.30 (I know, it's not the same when you have two little crazies around).  But it has actually dawned on me we're sleeping 2 hours longer than usual - and then there's that long breakfast outdoors - got to love summer?!! This is perhaps why my mind has turned to bedrooms today - and one beautiful one in particular - Belgian designer Sarah of Coco Lapine's. Berlin based Sarah recently gave her monochrome bedroom a lovely summery lift with new cream and light grey bedding and a fab reading light. I could enjoy a great nights sleep and a duvet day here - how about you?!

Soooo calm and uncluttered.

A low down on where  items are from: Cream Montrose bedding, Veiros cotton quilt, Vida floor lamp, Muuto dots, print by Coco Lapine (coming soon). Yeh wall table by MENU.

I sampled Aesop for the first time recently when my sister sent me the jetset pack as a surprise luxury for a flight a few weeks back (yes, I have a wonderful sister). I have to say, the items are heavenly - have you tried them? Love the medicinal style packaging too.

For more dream-inducing bedroom inspiration today I'm loving this and this one, and all the pretty bedrooms in this designer hotel - the many squiralled away on this board. And all of these wonderful children's bedrooms too - so unbelievably cute!

Back with a home tour tomorrow - and for those of you patiently waiting to hear if you're the lucky winner of 250 quid to spend at Nest.co.uk - the winner has now been announced here. Exciting!

Have a lovely day!
