A shop that is worth a visit when in Paris is “Home Autour de Monde” in Le Marais, Rue des Francs Bourgeois. (A very charming shopping street!) Here you will find decorative objects and ready-to-wear mixed harmoniously. Love their style!

Fargerike is now launching a new wallpaper in their trend collection called “Fort Hjort”(!) Normally I´m not very fond of patterned wallpaper, but this one I really like. Maybe it´s because of its beautiful and classic expression in a neutral color palette, or maybe it´s because of this lovely living room..

Both the design and colors can easily be combined with nuances of autumn’s interior colors.
You will find the new wallpaper in Norwegian stores from 15. August 2012 (a limited edition)

It´s not often that I have time to paint, but I needed some paintings for the apartment we styled a few weeks ago, so it was time to get creative again..

The building you see is a print of Illums Bolighus in Denmark. It´s a thin gift paper that I got in their store in House of Oslo. I glued the paper to the canvas, then I painted over and around it to make it blend in… A fast and easy way to make a new decorative painting for your wall…
For the other ones I used wallpaper that I glued to large canvases. See pictures of them here.

Happy weekend!

Our holiday in France is over and I´m back in my “new” black office again. Well.. actually, today I´m  heading back to “House of Oslo” again, to take down the exhibition for June.  Not as fun as putting it up, but you gotta do what you gotta do, right? *smile*

Here you have more pictures from my newly painted home office. I really enjoy the dramatic change it have gotten.
Do you have any painting plans this summer?

If you have been following me on Instagram (stylizimoblog) you know that I have been painting with the color black lately. One of the walls I have given a makeover is in my home office. The room completely changed character after getting black, and I love its new dramatic look!

I guess you all know by now that I often change the look of my office space. I think it´s inspiring to sit in new environments, and some paint is all it takes sometimes.
