Hello! It's a public holiday here in Sweden tomorrow so we're gearing up for a few days at the cottage - which I'm soooo looking forward to! But I'd never leave you without a beautiful home tour and a round up of a few links I love of course! This home in Hornstull, Stockholm really stood out to me for it's vibrant colours (the greens, the yellows....the orange!) and relaxed, lived-in vibe. The lovely space belongs to interior architect and designer Marie Dreiman and her husband and centres around their philosophy of 'order and poetry'. I certainly see that from these pictures, how about you?

I love the sunny yellow cabinet - it's so cheerful! And the green in the kitchen is beautiful too. Is there anything that stands out to you?

Get the look: kitchen / dining - There are some really fab 1950's dining chairs here (including this blue formica one). Tolix style bar stool in yellow. Sitting room: Corona chair by E J�rgensen and sofa by IKEA, rattan chair, pick up a teak mid-century chair here. I love this and this vintage filing cabinet. Bedroom: the Hay polygon quilt cover is similar, source a mid-century bedside table here, Le Klint pendant lamp.

Other relaxed homes I love include this mid-century inspired home in Berlin, a light filled Swedish family home and a cottage in the Australian countryside (in case you missed them).

I thought I'd leave you with a few links I love this week too:

Dining with lighting and plants overhead.... and the easiest indoor plants to grow (and keep alive) indoors.

A great way to store LP's.

Possibly the cutest children's clothing I've seen this season.

Love the mix in this kitchen!

Where I'd like to be sitting right now. Want to join me? We could dangle our feet with a champagne cocktail? Say yes!

Which reminds me, have you ever seen Isaac's live lip-dub marriage proposal? If not, you must!! It's so wonderful!

And finally - the 22 most beautiful places in the world - do you agree?

Right, that's it from me. Better go and pack! Eeeee!

Have a wonderful few days and see you Monday....

PS Oh and calling all Stockholmers - Photographer Petra Reger (who's fabulous home in a former factory I featured here) is looking for a lovely home story in Stockholm to photograph early next week. If you have any tips Petra would love to hear from you.

Hello! The sun's shining and it's almost the weekend - what's not to love?! It's going to be an extra special one here too as we've got VIP guests - my sister and unbelievably cute four month old niece! Before I head off to join them I'd like to share this wonderfully relaxed and charming loft in Oakland, California. Captured by Ellie Koleen, the home belongs to graphic designer and illustrator Jess Levitz, husband Josh, baby boy Izzie and their dog Jack. The family have furnished the space with an eclectic blend of their favourite things including a huge book collection, vintage and handmade items (note the bespoke raised bed), modern pieces and a whole load of plants. The result is an entirely unique and personal home drenched in sunlight. What a great home tour to celebrate the start of the weekend.

Love, love, love this space, how about you? It helps that the pics are that bit more personal including Jess with her little baby boy and also Jack enjoying a little spot in the sun!

Items I know and love: Kitchen - rattan pouf, industrial style utility cart, I love this original dining table from the 1950's table (better hurry, there's only one!), rag rug, string folk lights. Sitting room: Chaise longue from IKEA. Bedroom: the yellow art on canvas is by Jess, fairy lights. Izzie's corner: cotton & ball string lights, this little bear blanket / rug is similar to the one draped over the side of the cot.

You can read / check out more pics of this lovely home here.

I absolutely love a loft, don't you? Here are some others I've featured in the passed, in case you missed them - thoughtful no?! A truly inspiring Parisien loft, 'The Witness' in New York and an artist's home in a former factory. Do you have a favourite?

Have a wonderful couple of days and see you Monday!

PS This weekend I'm holding such an exciting give-away - in fact I'd love to keep the prize for my own home,....stop by if you have the time and join in the fun, I assure you, you'll be as excited as I am!

After yesterday's little piece of paradise I can't stop thinking about my next holiday, how about you?! That's why I thought we could explore a similarly beautiful and inspiring home today, yet in a completely different corner of the world. Welcome to Morocco! This magical riad has been styled by Cleo Scheulderman for Couleur Locale to showcase their wonderful collection. I'm seeing earthy tones and rich textures from wooden rafters, baskets, stools, rugs and cotton covered lamps. The question is do I opt for the white sandy beaches of St Barths or explore the magnificent souks of Morocco?! Let's take a tour before we decide....

Such a lovely cool space from which to escape the scorching midday sun (and rest those weary feet after a day at the souk!), don't you think? And what a fabulous backdrop for a product shoot?!

Have you been to Morocco?

Nearly all the beautiful items you see are available at Couleur Locale. I'm also loving this fab Moroccan pom pom throw, blanket and Handira wedding blanket (for the wall or bed).

A few links from around the web this weekend:

Perfect bed side inspiration.

Pink was the accent colour in Milan - hooray for blush! Even more reason to enjoy my new Tom Dixon stool (seen in my home here)! I love the combination of dark grey, pink and a touch of dark golden yellow in this space too.

This Norwegian house carved out into the cliffs over a fj�rd is completely crazy!

A beautiful home tour down under.

Right, that's it from me, thank you for a wonderful week of engaging comments, social media shares and lovely e-mails. If you have time this weekend, don�t forget to stop by and enter the exciting weekend give-away or simply browse the MSH archives for more bohemian homes (there goes an entire saturday morning!). TTFN (ta ta for now)....!

PS this is not a sponsored post (they are always clearly marked), I simply love the space!

Modern Home Stylish Boho touches in a magnificent Moroccan riad Home Interior - Home Interior

Do you have days when everything happens so sloooow that you're at least two hours behind all day?! Admittedly it didn't help that I had a brainstorming session for my book launch with a few of my favourite creative friends last night - which of course required, um, refreshments. Anyhow, I've finally got it together, and I'm actually very proud of myself as this is one extremely fab home tour. Boho style has been rocking the interior world for a while now, but Louise and Matthijs have put their own spin on it in their beautiful late 19th century Dutch farmhouse in the village of Ermelo. The space, captured by Barbara Groen, has been decorated with a blend of Scandinavian, rustic and ethnic style, and is teeming with items find on their travels. Let's take a tour...

What an inspiring space don't you think?

Get the look: Leather Moroccan ottoman / pouf, Adesso Atlas Floor Lamp, (also seen in Genevieve's home), large round jute rug, source tie dye cushions here. I love this extremely chunky grey knit blanket.

More extremely cool boho homes include a retreat in Marseille, a beautiful Mexican home by the sea, and the home of a florist. Loving the relaxed vibe!

Other links from around the web today:

How great is this cork wall?

We're seeing more and more old school bathrooms - what do you make of this rose quartz / black tile combo?

Bring nature indoors for the day with this simple yet pretty DIY idea.

Love this blue cabinet against the brass.

Living in Sweden it would be rude not to love clogs - which I do! I'm all over this source of clog heaven!

Speaking of Sweden, it's been snowing all day here (another reason for my slow morning) - I'm waiting for it to slow-up so I can go out on a cabin hunt - isn't this one pretty?!

Have a lovely day!
