When planning my trip to Stockholm I was looking for a calm & inspiring place to stay. Conference days are long and though being among awesome people is wonderful, a place to recharge my batteries was important. I remembered the Skeppsholmen island from my first trip to Stockholm in 2011 when we visited the Moderna Read article…

A paper globe
This weekend I got the flue. After lots of sleep, painkillers and oranges, I felt a little better and made this paper globe.

Our other xmas tree!
HO HO HO, Merry Christmas! I hope you had a wonderful day with your family & friends & pets yesterday? What did you do together? The wooden xmas tree you're looking at was handmade by my dad. I decorated it with some fresh pine tree branches from our "other" tree. I love it!
Light strings at Studio Sapique
I didn't only find the light strings for the pine tree outside, but also my favorite xmas lights I bought 14 years ago at Habitat. No LED lights, but I like them very much! The thing with light strings is that they always get messed up. Do you have that too? Wally loved watching (and Read article…

I’m going nuts!
Today I'm going N U T S. Well not really… but the third Pixum poster on our kitchen door, says so! Every time I enter the kitchen, I can't help but think about "going nuts" or worse… a nuts candy bar. It's nice to have a different poster on the kitchen door. The Faithless Outrospective Read article…
Le Deun Luminaires
Last week I walked by the showroom of Le Deun Luminaires in Paris. I was hiding under my umbrella when these illuminated circles caught my eye. Wow! I'm always a little annoyed when I see lightning shops that have all the their lights turned on. Such a waste of power! But when I read that Read article…
