When interiors became light

Norm Architects. Copenhagen town house.

  This studio was founded in 2008 and represents the vision of Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen and Kasper Rønn. Situated in the heart of Copenhagen and winner of two awards at the Restaurant and Bar Design Awards for their design of the Cofoco/Menu project Höst - not only for the Best European Restaurant Design but also the main award for Best Restaurant worldwide.

  In spirit with the tradition for Scandinavian simplicity NORM strives to cut to the bone in their designs. To find the simplest shape for a given task without forgetting the beauty of the shape and the details, in order to reach a point where there is nothing to add and nothing to take away that can make the product better. Like true Scandinavians they pride themselves in their culture and history, and hope and aspire to create new norms for Nordic design.

  The following house is a recently redesigned one that has become really interesting in terms of how daylight flows through the space. Few pictures of the project here:

Little Nordic Houses

Houses Love story

      It was more than 10 years ago when I saw little houses for the first time. I went to Netherlands and they had chocolates boxes and cans with the shape of Nordic houses or magnets or even biscuits... I was amazed about that, I didn't really know the reason. In that time I didn't know that one day I would become an interior designer, but maybe my love for design and nice home places was already showing up. Perhaps it was reminding me to my childhood when I was drawing or having houses for my dolls.

I believe that was the beginning of my love for little houses.
      
      A year ago I went to Stockholm and saw little houses in every design and decor shop. They were getting my attention all the time so much that I had to buy one!! Even tho that i was having just a hand luggage and the the house was quite big.
     
      Since then, I see little houses everywhere, I guess they   became trendy. I am very happy about that because I just love them!

Candle holders, wooden decoration houses, wire houses... it doesn't matter what material and why!!

Candle holders looking like there is someone living inside... it is so nice when they are on!

yellow touch

    Sharing positive energy 

      Hay tantas y tantas cosas que me vuelven loca en el mundo del interior design que no sabría ni por dónde empezar... pero como precisamente es eso lo que estoy haciendo con este blog (empezando), quería regalaros y quería regalarme a mí misma unas pinceladas de optimismo y alegría. Y qué mejor que unos interiores con unos toques de amarillo...

      Yo no sé si me atrevería con ellos, he de reconocer que soy más de total white, pero visualmente me resultan irresistibles!
Disfrutad!
                                * * *

There are so many things that drive me crazy about interior design that I wouldn't know where to start from... but that is exactly what i am doing with this blog /STARTING/ so I wanted to share with you some brushstrokes of energy, optimism and positivism. And I didn´t find a better way than doing it with some yellow touch interiors...

I don´t really know if I would dare to use it at home, as my style is closer to total white, I just can tell you that it looks really irresistible to me!  Enjoy it!
