That was a nice green party right?! I loved the peek into so many bloggers homes and to see that many are enthusiastically growing plants, veggies & herbs at home. I still have a few photos from Milan that I'd like to show you today. Somehow the work of Jaime Hayon was everywhere in Milan: Read article…

Urban Jungle Bloggers #8
For the eight time today, Igor and I are throwing a little green party. Or at least that's what our monthy Urban Jungle Bloggers challenge feels like to me. Afters lots of eggs, creative stylings and spring freshness in March, today is all about green window sills and balconies. Actually we don't have a single Read article…
Hay Mini Market in Milan
You didn't need a map to find the Hay showroom during the Salone del Mobile in Milan: you could simply follow the cool folks sporting the limited edition Wrong for Hay totes to get there. It's the first time since 2008 that Danish furniture & accessory brand Hay and sister brand Wrong for Hay were Read article…
Patterns in Milan
My five days in Italy with friends were bright and colorful, just like the tiles above at Temakinho in Milan. We walked for hours along several lakes, enjoyed the abundant sunshine, ate the most delicious Italian food, had many interesting conversations, laughed a lot, smelled the blooming wisteria on every street corner, got our design Read article…
Behind my desk
It almost feels like I have to earn my trip to Italy for #blago2014 next week: I've been working around the clock these past few weeks. Working from home, I get to design my own home office and it's not so bad: my ever growing and changing moodboard reminds me of previous trips and beautiful Read article…
The Broken Arm in Paris
My days in Paris are always packed. I try to get most out of my time in the city, before taking the train home to our just-outside-the-banlieue city. This means: meetings with clients, a visit to an exhibition or conference, random walks, a little shopping at Uniqlo or COS and the best part: meeting with Read article…

Merci Jocelyn! You may also want to check out Jocelyn's instagram, where she shares many pictures of her Read article…
My little Kickboy project
Finally I can share the result of my little painting adventure with you! Well it's a very small project, painting a Kickboy waste bin, but with 7 layers it took a while. First I applied two layers of primer, followed by the fun part: painting in color. The Eau de Nil or turquoise paint looked Read article…
Sapique in Hebrew
Last week our home was featured on two Hebrew websites: on Design Marx and Mako Living. I know that very few of you actually read Hebrew (I don't read a single word, even though my name finds its origin in Hebrew), but I'm always intrigued by scripts that read from right to left, because I Read article…
Snowdrops
Not long now until my blog turns into a flower blog. I can't help myself with the many bulbs and spring flowers that are popping up! On our sunday walk through the mud, we passed by this field of snowdrops. I think it's the first time I saw them in the wild! In French snowdrops Read article…
