Bergen’s best Airbnb rental

June 22, 2018

I will be spending some time in the summer house the next two months, and now that I have gotten the ok to renovate it as I see fit (of course within a budget), I am looking for inspiration as to what style I want it to have. Most certainly I want it to feel like a summer house, or really a vacation house, I do not want it to be too contemporary. A cross between a cabin with modern country vibes is what I have had in mind and when I stumbled on this amazing rental townhouse in Bergen I knew it would serve as great inspiration.

Built in 1710, this historic Norwegian townhouse has been restored and renovated into what it looks today in this post. When Todd Saunders of Saunders Architecture found this old townhouse in the Norwegian city of Bergen, the facade looked great but it didnt match the inside. The previous owners had made some questionable decisions when it came to decoration but also overall style, something that was about to change and become the beautiful modern rental that is today.

I love the Dinesen Douglas fir floors, the beautiful Bergen based Souk cladded bathroom, the custom-designed kitchen worktops and cabinetry that have been handcrafted by Copenhagen furniture makers København Møbelsnekkeriet, among others. Scroll below to see more photos, and as days go by, check the blog for updates of how my holiday house is coming along! Although so far I do not have the budget for such a renovation as the Saunders one, but nonetheless I promise you, the difference will be quite dramatic!

At Elisabeth Heiers Bathroom

June 18, 2018

Spending the afternoon at Elisabeth’s house , best place to work, not just because we are friends, but because her apartment is absolutely amazing 😉 While washing my hands in the bathroom I couldn’t help but snap a few quick photos, even though I only had my travel camera with me with a 45mm lens, equivalent to an 85mm lens. This means I could only shoot close ups, but I hope you can see some of the beautiful details then. As for more photos ( plus how the bathroom looked before ) you can check Elisabeths own post on her blog here. Believe me, its worth it, you will fall in love 😉 Some of the highlights for this renovation and few of my favorite details include the Montana bathroom furniture, faucet from Dornbracht , and even though it is not a details, the most beautiful floor from Pastellone is a natural floor system made out of lime, marble powder and other minerals inspired by antique Venetian floors. The material choices were great I think, Elisabeth designed a bathroom that is at the same time as elegant as it is calm and relaxing place to be. Who wouldn’t want to shower in here and get ready in the morning?

Beautiful Petite Apartment Studio in Gothenburg

June 13, 2018

I happened to run across a few days ago this amazing petite apartment in Gothenburg while perusing Entrance makleri, for a super small space, it is packing with amazing style. I could not possibly live in here of course, I definitely need a separate bedroom from the living room, while the space does not look like it has any real storage, so everything would be messy within an hour if I lived there. However, add one more room and even a few square meters for keeping all my things, and I am sold. From the old details to the huge beautiful era windows, stunning floors, even the beautiful entrance, I dont even care that it is on the first floor. Love the styling too, very clever use of space with only just a hint of country, just enough to create a cozy atmosphere. I love it. Scroll below for more photos or visit Entrance makleri for an overview plus the plan, you wont believe how small it really is!
