home tour... apartment in Milano

Cerri & Associati  studio designed this apartment in Milan, which has plenty of natural light combined with bold designers furniture. White walls background gives the opportunity to play with colorful accessories and art collections. I love Italian design, when it creates fantastic meshup of different styles,colours and textures...like it's shown in this beautiful home.
What you can see here are plenty of books, paintings, sculptures, antique furniture and modern furniture all put together..
color palette is like modern art gallery style: lots of white(walls and mdf furniture,dining table and chairs), with light wooden floors and some fire red
beautiful artwork dated late mid XX in very interesting frames or better wording "holders"...and famous Eero Saarinen's Tulip table and chairs


chairs made in Artek are based on Alvar Aalto idea from 1933

finally some organization in my blog....

I've finally decided what categories I will have on my blog. I've been thinking about it for some time,because I needed a sort of schedule to be focused on. Don't want to get another day without inspiration or with thinking  that idea I have for that thay is not good enough.

Nata's living room..

My friend recently married, asked me to help her find the best solution for their new apartment. She doesn't know how to put together things she loves, although she knows exactly what she wants. Her husband trusts her,but he has a problem to visualize her ideas. That's where I come in.
They want light wood furniture, like bleeched oak, stream lines, simple contemporary design. Light and natural color palette,with pops of warm green and brown.
Here's my idea

what a stylish nursery...




My son is growing so fast...almost 2 years already. we still share the room, but soon my hubby and I would have to pack our bags, and find another solution. most likely, it will be sofa in the living room, because I don't think we will have the money to make the best solution. sofa's waiting for us for a long time now :)

it was difficult to decorate the room not to be too adult or too childish. i tryed to find some ideas how to make the two styles to work,but at the end, I just left it as it was at the beggining. my hubby loves every shade of blue..since i'm married, i start to like some shades of blue too.. teal,duckegg,navy blue. blue-gray and blue-green are my favorite combinations. with punches of warm colors, like deep orange, and some dark brown- beautiful.

here comes the point
my daily blog inspiration is one-of-a-kind making it lovely where i love to read her honor roll. this time it lead me to design sponge (of course,known from before) and with two cats, totally-new-for-me-but-so-lovely blog which i fell in love right away. what cought my eye is that Lauren from with two cats made the prettiest nursery I've seen. white as a neutral, light furniture, cool blue-gray wall for calming effect, and punches of orange,warm yellow, reddish make this room outstanding.

maybe you ask yourself why I'm so overjoyed about this room...please, take a look for yourself


i would love to upholster my living room sectional in this fabric


i crave for window benches




my husband and i love this color, we're soon painting our multitasking room in this shade...and i was thinking about similar painted tree over our headboard,because we need a focal point. i think it would be perfect. i already have pure white curtains (yes,everybody should start with curtains when decorating :D ),and i can't wait to do the rest. what's keeping us? rain! countles days of raining! did anyone said it's spring?

Do you need a better blog?..

I realized few days ago that my blog needs improvement of how it looks. It seemed there was a bit too much of everything...so I decided to make it more simple, easier to the eyes, and much more professional looking.

It was a must to have a wider space for pictures, and I finally did it. yepie! I also decided to design my own logo, signature, and header, because I think my previous outlook didn't leave a good first impression.

Why I decided to change? First, it just didn't felt right,I liked it, but it wasn't perfect. Second, I found several posts about blog improving, and I tell ya - it's a MUST READ!

new quiz..what TYPE are you..


passion finds.. color stripes...

Boje su svuda oko nas, mame nas, inspirišu, izazivaju i negativne reakcije (ne u mom slučaju..) ali kako izabrati paletu koja nama odgovara?...i uvjek se postavlja dodatno pitanje,da li možemo stvoriti paletu prijatnu za oko od boja koje su nam omiljene..Boje koje oblačim, uopšte ne volim u svom ambijentu, i obrnuto. Da imam office, tamo bih koristila skroz treću paletu,prateći opet emocije.
Oko sebe primjećujem u razgovoru ljude koji se ograničavaju na samo par boja, i to je u redu, to njih opisuje. Trenutno radim na uređenju otvorenog prostora - 3 u 1 - kuhinja/trpezarija/dnevni boravak, a klijenti su prilično uplašeni,smatrajući da sve mora biti u dvije boje..bez nijansiranja..ajoj,ne! Sučeljavajući dva kolaža - u dvije boje i drugi u 5 boja, mogu reći da ih je ipak opčinila bogatija paleta. Otkrili su nešto što nisu znali da imaju u sebi. Takođe,mislili su da vole klasično stilski opremljen stan...kad ono rezultat je više kombinacija modernog sa rustičnim..ali o tome drugi put...
Za sebe i druge sama stvaram palete boja,ali pronašla sam sada Kris's color stripes blog, gdje talentovana Kristina obožava boje i pravi gotove palete inspirisana detaljima iz prirode i svoje svakodnevice... Na blogu možete vidjeti mnoštvo njenih radova, predstavljanje knjiga, vintage predmete i predjele od kojih zastaje dah..

passion finds..Mykonos as inspiration..

Kako sam se oduševila predjelima u spotu Stereo Love - Edward Maya...i saznam da se radi o Mykonosu u Grčkoj...kako predivno...kako inspirativno. Na šta konkretno mislim?na kućice i ostale građevine,od zemlje sagrađene,izrazito bijele sa jarkim bojama škura, krovova, stepeništa i vrata....potražila sam slike,ali nadjoh najviše kombinaciju sa plavom...što možda i nije neka novost. pogledajte spot na gore datom linku..
