New room in a new home
A new phase of life. A mother and two children were moving into a three-bedroom apartment, where the biggest change was to carve out a space in the living room for the mother's bedroom. The children would have their existing rooms, one for the boy and one for the girl. They wanted to make the rooms inviting and warmly decorated. Natural materials, freshness, and a water element were on the wish list. The vision of the whole: towards light. Creating a strong sense of atmosphere and warmth in the home....

An incredible 17 square metres
Making a small home cosy? A studio apartment of just an unimaginable 17 square metres can be fitted with the necessary functions in a beautiful and practical way. Incredible, but true. The tenant had the desire to renovate the apartment into a comfortable home. They wanted a Scandi industrial style, with broken natural colours. The resident had already decided on a copper-coloured kitchen tap and the kitchen plans were already in the process of being drawn up. At the right time, I got to the rest of the overall design and colour scheme...

Dark bedroom style, with light floating around
For the new property, the couple wanted an interior design for their bedroom. A dark, inviting chamber was sought and envisioned, where the couple's husband could carve something. The couple was open to unique ideas in wood that the carpenter could make himself. Awesome! An example of a desirable style was the Lapland hotel style with a modern and chic touch. Dark, warm, deep, brooding and calming was the order of the day. The white walls were already up...

Be in the living room
We wanted the living room of a mother and two sons to be a cosy and warm nest. The solutions were functional, easy to use and not superfluous. The centrally located central problem was the tower of the kitchen island. It was perceived as a difficult visual barrier. The plafond in the ceiling, on the other hand, created a bright industrial lighting atmosphere, not so homely. The living room was just the family's sons' PlayStation, which was going to move to the kids' room anyway, so...

Housing Fair highlights
Observations of the Tuusula Housing Fair in pictures. These are some of the things I did at the survey. Perhaps it's better not to show more of the shaken visitor. There are charming fair porters at every location to ensure safety, a mask is free and plenty of gloves are available, so I felt safe. And tickets are purchased in advance online, with a set arrival time. The fair is open until 30 August.

Relentless pruning and vertical restraint
The title refers to a clothes search based on the principle of konmar. This requires written assistance. I read Marie Kondo's book "KonMari - The life-changing magic of cleaning" and was inspired to apply the lessons. I spent about a working day decluttering and reorganising. I collected all the t-shirts on the floor and selected only the nicest ones and the ones I actually wear. Also all the trousers, all the long sleeves, dresses, skirts, shorts...

Cleaning up makes you look in the mirror
The simple sanctity of cleaning. Cleaning, tidying, organising. In its simplicity, cleaning your home has a surprisingly large impact on your well-being. I am not the type of person who automatically keeps my home tidy all the time, but only act when I SEE something needs to be done. I represent more the type of person who feels a pale inadequacy to the TOO TIDY homes of the somme. But then, I am interested in promoting well-being. I thought...

Collision course in the hallway
The functionality of the hallway is a surprisingly big benefactor in the home. If you feel like you have to dodge furniture or people, that's not good. Smooth movement and easy placement of coats and shoes are comforting to many. A client identified the problems with the hallway of her home in a gorgeous old factory building: 'The style I wanted was loft, something exciting, old and new, lots of colour, no pastiche, a mix of clean and bohemian....
