Earlier this year I was asked to work with the team of vtwonen on the new vtwonen loves sharing magazine. In previous editions of this annual blogazine they featured our home and we also did a series with bloggers from the Urban Jungle Bloggers community. But this year was a little bit different as my Read article…

My favorites from Maison & Objet 2017
After a very festive weekend launching our #urbanjunglebook in French (read all about it here!) I visited Maison & Objet on Monday. It was much calmer than during the first weekend days, but as usual there was not enough time to see everything of the fair in just one day. I looked for greens and Read article…
Our new living room
C'est la rentrée ! It's Back to School! And I'm going back to work with what feels like a new living room! Over the summer we decided our living room needed an upgrade. We gave away our two yellow Ikea Klippan couches because we never sat on them, and the only thing left, were two Read article…
Villa Cavrois
One of my favorite trips of the summer was to the city of Roubaix, in the metropolitan area of Lille, in the north of France. Our goal was to visit La Piscine, a museum of contemporary art and industry that is located in a former indoor swimming pool. Did I like it? What can I Read article…
A little cinema room restyling
Our cinema room, where we watch movies and where Robert and I also have dinner, became too red. I know cinemas (at least the ones in my head) are red, velvet with comfy chairs. But the white and red became too much and too harsh, I felt it needed to be toned down and softened Read article…
Maison Louis Carré by Alvar Aalto
On your birthday you get to choose what you want to eat or do, right? Well, I know I do! The night before my sister and I baked a delicious Challah loaf and made Labneh. But before enjoying that feast on the "big" day, we were headed to a place that has been on my Read article…
Urban Jungle Bloggers #36
The thing I like most with the Urban Jungle Bloggers topics is that they challenge me to try something new. Like with the previous New Beginnings topic where I grew even more cuttings in laboratorium glassware. And today's Tropicool topic is no exception! Tropicool to me means wavy palmtrees, cocktails, tropical fruits like pineapple and Read article…
My seven sins of living in vtwonen
This month I'm in the Jungle Fever issue of vtwonen magazine! Theo-Bert shared his Seven Sins of Living in May's issue, and this June it was my turn. I was interviewed by Monique van der Pauw about lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy and pride… but with a home & living touch. You can read the feature HERE, Read article…
mini guide Brussels
When visiting our family in Holland, we always (always!) pass by Brussels. And in fifteen years we never ever stopped there. Which turned out, is a pity because Brussels is a sweet and diverse city, well worth a visit. Igor and I were in Bruxelles recently to promote our book and to host a plant Read article…
Plants and colors
Today I get to blog with a group of French interior bloggers: le collectif de blogueurs Project Inside! They asked me to be their guest blogger this month and bien sûr I said yes: I mean the topic couldn't be a better match: "Les Plantes et les couleurs" (Plants & Colors). Both inspire me so Read article…
