california summer lovin.


When I am in California, I would like to park here for a bit. Cory Buckner Architects did a good job designing the second storey – yup, it is a brand new addition, that is why I am sure they will not mind.

Okay, hang on. You have to see the larger version of the sunny photo.

Sunny, summer lovin’ all year round.

hen house.


Hen House by Frederik Roije is “an architectural wonder of the fowl world”. Taking free range to another level I would say – breed retreat.

selby randoms.


The Selby is one of the websites I go to probably once a week. I have seen all the photos a few times, but I can still look at it over and over. There is something about seeing how other people live, that makes me feel at home.

These are just a few randoms I clicked on today. Not necessarily my favorites and in no particular order, here are a few randoms from The Selby.

















“The Selby is in Your Place.” The book will be out soon. Narry needs this. Please? I do not ask for much, but this is one of the top 5 items on my wishlist.

every home.


Every home needs a kitchen with a big sink and a big counter.


Every home needs a comfy seat and spot colors.


Every home needs a pup.

Spot the pup. Kill the clutter.


Every home needs light. Big windows and lots of natural light. Hello big kitchen window.


And according to Narry, everyone needs a home in Brooklyn.

Love.

farmhouse extension.


Have you ever been to a farm? Or have you ever been to a farm with an house with an extension? An extension like this one? Wow.

Looking at this house, somehow makes me happy. The Ballymahon residence is a clutter-free beauty by Dublin based practice, ODOSarchitects.

I am falling in love all over again with “less is more”.



merchant house.










Everybody is talking about Merchant House by Søren Rose Studio.

Simple and typically Scandinavian design. Retro and contemporary furnishings. Quite a mix, but I love the clean cut and then of course, the color.

Hello Desk, you have pretty computers. Kinda dig your friend – the wall – too.

apartment swap.











I would swap Narry’s Hole (my apartment) for this one any day. Fresh, clean and clutter-free.

Until then I will slowly start by taking elements from this oh-so-gorgeous apartment and make Narry’s Hole look better.

kate and keith.






The couple shares a lovely little apartment with their little one and it sure does have a whole lot of character – in New York. Okay, let’s love… seeing that we love The Selby so much.

on my way to dumbo, bk.






Yes, I am moving to Brooklyn. The Brooklyn Tower Clock Penthouse looks promising. At only $25 million you can live in the most expensive apartment in Dumbo. The infamous “Clocktower” apartment complex is selling its top floor triplex penthouse apartment. Only $25 million to make all your dreams come true.

Wouldn’t it be nice to wake up to this view on weekends? Beautiful, peaceful architecture by Hutchison & Maul.
