Shopping in the Provence can be very boring: lavender sachets, ceramic cicadas, table cloths with provencal prints… not the things I’d bring home. When I heard that a concept store opened in Pernes les Fontaines, in the middle of the Provence, I was intrigued. Last week I visited La Maison Pernoise and found it such Read article…

Where do you live?
"You live in an abandoned factory? Sounds cool!" I don't know how many times I've told our home story over the years. And don't get me wrong, I like talking about it, but a picture paints a thousand words 😉 Since our home is a recurring theme on my blog, I gathered a selection of Read article…
Hay House Copenhagen
Located on the 1st and 2nd floor of a downtown Copenhagen apartment, HAY HOUSE made me fall in love with pink again.

People dress in orange, eat orange pastries, drink orange beer and homes are decorated in orange. And if Read article…
A floating hospital
When I told you that I'm fan of the weekend, I didn't know what the weekend had in store for us. Turns out I'm not a big fan of this past weekend. Even though I had lots of fun and was surrounded by my favorite people, it was also very stressful and included a visit Read article…
Summer Flowers for Countlan mag

The idea was to show the vision of summer through floral arrangements by different florists from around the globe. Upon recommendation of Elodie I visited florist Loïc from Argevil in Read article…

A few weeks ago, I ran across these amazing flower beds full of the most bright and colorful flowers. So rich & diverse that I couldn't stop taking pictures with my phone. Of course I Read article…
