{weekend project} modern clock ** {uradi sam} moderan zidni sat

Simplicity is what makes things unique in most cases. This clock made by Agus is the perfect example. There's a piece of wood scrap laying on my desk for a few months; I thought the idea will come itself just by looking at it. I had a few ideas but I didn't want to settle until the AHA moment. And here it is. So simple that I'm jealous why it wasn't MY idea :) But still, possibilities are endless with colours and motifs. What would you create?
This clock was inspired by the Primary Clock designed by David Weatherhead and GOODD for Thorsten van Elten and I found out about this via  Design Sponge
Jednostavnost je ključ originalnosti (bar u većini slučajeva). Pravi primjer je ovaj drveni moderan sat koji je napravila Agus, mlada arhitektkinja iz Buenos Airesa, a inspirisana je djelom dizajnera Davida Vederheda. Već dva mjeseca parče tankog drveta stoji na mom radnom stolu, gledam ga svakodnevno u nadi da će tako sinuti dobra ideja šta da uradim s njim. Imala sam nekoliko ideja, ali nije bilo AHA momenta, sve do sad. I malo zavidim...što ovo meni nije palo na pamet. Da napravim jednostavan moderan sat...a mogućnosti za dekoraciju su maltene bezgranične.

{e-design} go bold or neutral? ** jarke ili neutralne boje?

Milica, reader of PassionDecor wrote me to help her decorating living, dining and kitchen - all in one space. She was ready to insert some colour, and couldn't decide whether to bring colour with details or go bold with painting walls. Her original space was totally neutral and she wasn't happy with it. Her favourite colours are purple and green, so above you can see my design concept. After the jump you'll see mockup of the space and designboards I made.
Čitateljka PassionDecor bloga, Milica, obratila mi se za pomoć pri dekorisanju otvorenog prosotra koji čine dnevna soba, trpezarija i kuhinja. Bila je spremna da unese boje u neutralnu dnevnu zonu, ali nije mogla odlučiti da li je bolje da neutralnost razbije detaljima u boji, ili da stvarno napravi veliki iskorak i okreči zidove jarkim bojama. Dopada joj se kombinacija ljubičaste i zelene, i na slici iznad možete vidjeti dizajn koncept koji sam imala na umu. U nastavku možete pogledati virtuelno preuređenje u dvije varijante i dizajn table za kupovinu.

{love this space} organized workspace ** organizovan radni kutak

Love the bones of this space as it's versatile. It's girly and youthful in this case, but it can be decorated modern, or romantic, shabby, retro...you name it. And YOU - Random bookcase - I'll have my hands on you someday...or maybe just copy you for myself :D
Osnova ove radne sobice je odlična, jer se može urediti u stilu kojem zaželite. A polica Random iz MDF-a...biće moja kad-tad...pa makar samo napravila njenu kopiju, ah :D

35 ideas to camouflage your TV ** kamuflirajte televizor

I selected this post to be featured on Interior Design Blogs. Please visit the site and vote for my blog!



glorily and jeremy's evolving wicker park victorian via ApartmentTherapy

 We all watch tv, but mostly women (don't mind me saying that) don't like when the TV dominates the room. I see on the web, there are homes with family or media rooms dedicated for this purpose. As most of the people live in small houses or apartments, they have to think of a solution to blend the tv seamlessly and still be able to watch it comfortably. I collected some inspiration for disguising the tv without spending much money or building new furniture.
Televizori su neminovnost, da ne kažem - neophodnost, u današnje vrijeme. Lično nisam vidjela dom bez tv, i mogu zaključiti samo da smo postali rob te čarobne spravice sa pokretnim slikama. U nekom svom tinejdžerskom dobu, kada je svašta tutnjalo na Balkanu, sa mamom i sestrama sam bojkotovala televizor nekoliko godina. Neopisivo smo se zbližile, i tada sam naučila da riječ 'dosadno' ne smije da postoji u riječniku. Sada, tv je prečesto uključen, i pošto znam da ga ne mogu izbaciti iz stana, mogu ga kamuflirati. Na internetu sam skupila nekoliko ideja za uspješno i povoljno kamufliranje televizora, a da se ne prave posebni ormarići sa vratima ili tajni prostori u zidu. Srećom, savremeni televizori se većinom montiraju na zid poput slike, a mogu čak i da izgledaju kao slika.
Šta možete uraditi da tv ne bude prvo što se uoči u sobi?

{weekend project} rope headboard ** uzglavlje od umreženog konopa

Choose a rope colour that contrasts with the wall and one that coordinates with your bedlinen. Make a custom and simple wood frame. Randomly drill holes on the frame and then thread different types of rope through holes and tie a knot at each end to secure. It's helpful to have someone hold the rope tight while you tie the knot. In the end trim rope after knots and dab some clear nail polish or glue on the ends to stop it fraying. Hope you see endless possibilities with this technique. This way you can create mail center, inspiration board or photo display for example (with a use of clothespins)
Izaberite konop u kontrastnoj boji zida i jedan koji je sličan boji posteljine na primjer. Napravite po mjeri jednostavan ram od drvenih letvica i nasumično probušite rupe, mada možete i isplanirati izgled mreže. Komade kanapa provlačite bez nekog reda i zavežite u čvorove. Tu bi dobro došla i nečija pomoć, da bi kanapi bili dobro zategnuti. Odsjeći višak kanapa kod čvora i namazati ljepilom ili lakom za nokte da se ne bi razvezao.

{stylish small} is 28m2 enough for two? ** 28 kvadrata dovoljno za dvoje?

Although it's small, this apartment in Milan lacks nothing, and thanks to high ceilings it's decorated very functional and comfortable. To make the most of this small space with 3.3m high ceiling, a young couple living there, asked  the architect Ettore Larian for help. He created the platform (loft)  for sleeping area and wardrobe, and open space below contains several zones - kitchen and dining area with TV corner and Tattomi sofa, designed by Ingo Maurer and Jan Armgadta, then office area with library, which can be separated with sliding panels, and there is a place for bathroom, laundry and mini built-in wardrobe, too. Due to the lack of natural light, bathroom walls are made of opal glass strengthened by thin strips of stainless steel.
Iako male kvadrature, ovom stanu u Milanu ništa ne nedostaje, zahvaljujući visokim tavanicama, uređen je veoma funkcionalno i komforno. Kako bi maksimalno iskoristili ovaj mali prostor, mladi par koji u njemu živi, obratio se za pomoć arhitekti Ettore Larianiju, koji je visinu od 3.3m pretvorio u prednost. Napravljena je platforma na kojoj se nalazi zona za spavanje i garderober, a donji jedinstveni prostor sadrži više zona - kuhinja i trpezarija sa TV kutkom i foteljom Tattomi, dizajnera Ingo Maurera i Jan Armgadta, zatim radni kutak sa bibliotekom koji se može odvojiti kliznim panelima, a svoje mjesto su našli i kupatilo, mini vešernica i ugradni ormar. Zbog nedostatka prirodnog izvora svjetlosti, kupatilo je umjesto zidovima ograđeno opal staklom dodatno ojačanim tankim lajsnama od nerđajućeg čelika.

timeless living and dining room ** vanvremenska dnevna soba i trpezarija

 Remember when I posted this timeless grey living room with yellow accents and red wood? Do you want to see the rest of the room? it is living and dining area joint in one room looking to the kitchen. no need to tell again how much I love the mid century feel.
tell me, is that the TV above the sofa?
interior design by Sarah Richardson
Sjećate li se ove dnevne sobe sa žutim akcentima i drvetom u boji mahagonija? nadam se da želite da vidite i ostatak prostorije...dnevna soba i trpezarija čine cjelinu a odmah do njih je i kuhinja. Suvišno je ponavljati koliko mi se sviđa atmosfera prve polovine XX vijeka
da li se i vama čini da je na zidu iznad sofe TV?

{home tour} colonial vibes ** {moj stan} dodir kolonijalnog

 Although I know most of you already've seen these photos, I just had to post this home tour for its bright yellow accents and true eclectic style. or maybe more colonial?! natural mixed with modern creates a plyful space that's stylish and family friendly, too. This apartment looks more personalized than styled to me, and that's good. Any thoughts?
Iako sam sigurna da su mnogi već odavno vidjeli ove fotkice (i možda ih se zasitili), morala sam ih objaviti jer mi se suviše dopada kako je ovaj stančić uređen. Jarki žuti akcenti izgledaju fantastično u ovom omažu prirodi pomješanom sa elementima modernog. Prostor djeluje skladno a i pogodno za porodicu. POsebno mi se sviđa što ipak ovaj stan više dejluje karakterno nego stilizovano. Šta vi mislite?

{weekend project} cross stitch on the wall ** {uradi sam} unakrsni vez na zidu

Simple and fun project with big impact! Great if you need a cheap but noticable change. Pick a motif you love, draw a net out of small squares with a pencil and then paint cross stitch from the center of the motiv. Leave 24h to dry before erasing pencil marks

update: thanks to Škrabalica - now I know this technique and rose motif is courtesy of Eline Pellinkhof. She's so inspiring!

{stylish small} living in 15m2 ** život u samo 15 kvadrata

As I mentioned, May issue of Casaviva featured most amazing apartment studio tour not bigger than 15m2 (161 sq ft). My teenage room was bigger than that and I'd still sometimes find it small - and there were no kitchen and bathroom. Every milimeter is well planned here, perfect for single or for students. The owner and designer ot this lovely home is Silvia Citterio
Kao što sam rekla, nevjerovatan stančić je prikazan u majskom broju casavive. Da li možete zamisliti da svoj životni prostor svedete na samo 15m2? Moja djevojačka soba je bila malo veća od toga, i tu nisam morala da ukombinujem kuhinju i kupatilo... pa mi je opet znala biti tijesna. Ovdje je sve do milimetra uklopljeno i dobro promišljeno, i savršeno je za samce, pogotovo za studente. Tu je sve što je potrebno, a ne odlazi puno vremena na održavanje. Divota! Vlasnica i arhitekta je Silvia Citterio

highlights / CASAVIVA mag / Maj 2012

 I've decided to scan highlights of my favourite magazines. I have them so many, it's hard to remember in what issue is that particular article I loved. sometimes, I have to flip through dozens until I find what I'v been looking for. this is my way to be more organized... If some of you enjoy these posts, even better :)


{Odlučila sam da skeniram poneke stranice iz mojih omiljenih časopisa koje kupujem već godinama. Prijete da me uguše koliko ih imam, i skoro je nemoguće zapamtiti u kom baš ono broju se nalazi taj i taj članak kojeg se sjećam. Pamtim skoro kompletan sadržaj svih časopisa,ali naravno, ne znam gdje se šta nalazi. Često moram da prevrtim bar dvadesetak brojeva dok ne naletim na traženu sliku ili tekst. E, riješila sam probati da tom problemu doskočim na ovaj način...a volim da u svemu budem organizovana. Još bolje ako se bar nekim od vas dopada ovaj serijal...}

{stylish small} experimenting with design ideas ** experimentisanje sa idejama

 This 50m2 apartment belongs to talented Mette Helena where she lives with her daughter. Personally, I don't think it's challenging for two to  live in apartment that big (as we're family of four living in much smaller space), but I too know how many stuff an artist can have - too many according to my husband. So, I agree - it is a challenge to provide enough storage for all your belongings without a proper home office, as well creating everything to look good and inviting.

kitchen makeover ** uređenje kuhinje

Prije koji mjesec sam naišla na sjajan mejkover kuhinje, i to ne mislim na "sve je potpuno novo" tip kuhinje, nego pravo šminkanje postojećih elemenata i odličnu viziju vlasnika. Priznajem, ja bih prvo poželjela sve srušiti pa raditi ispočetka, evo pogledajte...

Well, I'll continue posting inspiring interiors pinned months ago. The reason why I was particularly  drawn to this home tour on Apartment Therapy is that blue sofa.

Time for a change again! Maybe I'm changing the look of my blog too often, but it seems I get tired soon of one look. Constantly changing and evolving. Hopefuly! Which one do you prefer? I'm not satisfied quite yet, as I know what I want with no clue how to achieve it and no time to learn html codes. Well, this is the look for now. I wanted to change the look for 300th post, and to give you a present. Two posters are waiting for you below. They look great with or without a frame. Enjoy!!

 As the temperature's not falling, I suggest you spend this weekend somewhere in the woods, or the mountain - it's definitely much nicer there. Bring some big cushions and picnic set, and enjoy your time and summer breeze. You'll find me under the olive trees with a cold lemonade watching my boys enjoying in the kids' pool ** S obzirom da je vrućina nepodnošljiva i neumorna (čak i nama na moru), predlažem vikend rashlađenja negdje u šumi ili na planini. Mene ćete definitivno naći ovih dana u hladu maslinjaka, sa ledenom limunadom, kako posmatram brčkanje svojih dječaka u bazenčiću

perfect home no.30 ** savršen dom br.30

 Modern, colourful, eclectic and bohemian. Interior designer Ana Teresa Bello is totaly brave when comes to decorating interiors. I tried to find more about her with no luck so far. It seems she works often for Michelle Obama (correct me please if I misunderstud the information) and she's very young - only 25. Very mature style in that age - I'm amazed! ** U ovom vrlo smjelo uređenom stanu uživa brazilska dizajnerka enterijera Ana Tereza Belo. Među vrlo siromašnim informacijama o njoj na internetu, pronašla sam da sa njom sarađuje Mišel Obama. Kako to da o njoj onda ima tako malo na netu? I vrlo je mlada, tek napunila 25, pa sam još više fascinirana njenim tako zrelim stilskim izrazom.

eat-in kitchen makeover ** uređenje kuhinje

Although I adore white kitchens, white can look bad if outdated and neglected as shown below. In this makeover, young couple went for bold kitchen and burst of colour in details. Every inch is well used now providing lots of storage and enough space for work. My husband and I would enjoy in this kitchen as he loves to cook and I'm more of a baking person... ** Iako obožavam bijele kuhinje, bijelo može izgledati i vrlo neugledno, kao što najčešće pamtimo neke domove od prije deceniju i po - dvije. Takav primjer je i ova zastarjela i krajnje nefunkcionalna kuhinjica od 7.5m2. Naravno da bi novi bijeli elementi, sto i stolice i nešto dekora djelovali fantastično; ali mladom paru ipak bolje pristaje vatromet boja i kuhinja sa karakterom i mladalačkim duhom. Svaki centimetar je sada odlično iskorišćen, tako da ima mnogo više mjesta za sve kuhinjske potrepštine, a opet i dovoljno prostora za rad. Moj muž voli da kuva, ja volim da pravim peciva i kolače, i oboje bi uživali u ovakvoj kuhinjici...

multifunctional LifeEdited apartment

I was mesmerized recently by this multifunctional apartment, because at 39m2 it can morph from one room into six thanks to it's movable walls and expandable furniture. The apartments' design is a project of LifeEdited which shows us "how to design our life to include more money, health and happiness with less stuff, space and energy".

Japanese apartment ** stan u japanskom stilu

It's about time to share all those links I saved on my favorites bar ages ago. Today we'll enjoy this smart Japanese apartment designed based on the bento box (it's a Japanese lunch box with compartments for diferent food), as owners have many passions and needed much space to store everything that goes with them.

fresh perspective on a classic design ** klasičan dizajn na savremen način

For example, you and your partner have a completely different style and affinity for interior decor. One likes contemporary and unusual furniture and bright colors, while another likes classic design - timeless furniture, elegance and functionality. How to connect these two extremes and make you both happy with the result?

{stylish small} Amsterdam studio ** {mali stan} garsonjera u Amsterdamu

 You just have to love this smart little studio. It measures only 30m2 and it wasn't this functional before the home stylist came to help the owner conquering the clutter. Don't know about you, but I'm all into places like these, full of personality and living stuff. Minimalistic or cleared interiors are not inspiring for me. The thing is, how to have lots of things in your home and make them look good? all you need is a bit of imagination.
This studio is decorated with industrial seventies style in mind, and the separation of diferent living areas is well achieved yet still looking coherent - thanks to chosen colour palette. Neutral colour palette is used to unify a multi-use space. Several bookshelves served as storage for everything - for storing books in the living area, for plates and kitchen utensils, for wardrobe and shoes... So many play roles for simple bookshelf **
Kako da se nekom ne dopada ova garsonjera? Veličine samo 30m2, sada je mnogo funkcionalnija uz dobru strategiju iako ima isto stvari kao i prije. Vlasnica je svoj stil definisala kao industrijalizam sedamdesetih, te je s tim na umu dekorisana ova garsonjera. Stilistkinja je uspješno odvojila garsonjeru na dnevnu, trpezarijsku i spavaću zonu a pomoću neutralnih boja prostor djeluje mirnije uprkos mnoštvu stvari i detalja. Glavnu ulogu, odnosno više uloga igraju jednostavne police za knjige, koje su ovdje poslužile za odlaganje kako knjiga, tako i posuđa, garderobe, obuće...a služe i kao pregrade između zona. Jednostavnim rolo zavjesama može se odvojiti spavaća zona, a iste zavjese su iskorišćene i kao zastor na garderoberu kao zaštita od prašine a i pogleda.

red ** crveno

via homestilo

People here are mostly interested in decorating with red when they want to go at least a bit bold. Red is considered as intense, statement colour. It is a symbol of love, but can also fill you with negative emotions like anger. I wouldn't suggest it for nurseries and kids room, but it can be very effective as it motivates the brain and it can look stylish.
If you love to paint red accent wall, I suggest you ground it with dark or black floor, or make a room feel spacious and airy by pairing it with white painted floor. In general, red wall colour doesn't look good with natural wood hardfloors.
For classy look use the red with gold, grey or black, or use base colours and green for playful space like this one above ** Ljudi u širem okruženju se najviše interesuju za crvenu pri uređenju doma, bilo kroz detalje ili kroz akcentovan zid. Crvena se smatra preintenzivnom i napadnom bojom jer diže adrenalin, simbol je ljubavi, a može podstaći i negativne emocije kao npr. ljutnju i agresivnost. Iako nije preporučljivo da se u dječijoj sobi nalazi mnogo crvene, može biti i veoma efektno - kako estetski, tako i motivaciono za mališana.
Stoličica sa pletenim sjedištem sjajno izgleda sa crvenim nogarima, ali ako bolje pogledate kombinaciju boje drveta i crvene, shvatićete zašto smatram da treba izbjegavati bojiti zid u crveno ako je pod u prirodnoj boji drveta. Crvenom zidu je potreban jak temelj - tamni ili crni podovi, ili nasuprot tome vazdušast izgled koji se postiže bijelim ili izbjeljenim podovima.
Zlatna, crna i siva daju crvenoj dozu elegancije, uzvišenosti i smirenosti, dok će smjelo i razigrano djelovati prostor gdje je kombinovana sa nekom od osnovnih boja.

Razmišljam kako da počnem sa pisanjem, jer nemam običaj da pišem išta što nije usko vezano sa dizajnom enterijera. Ali osjećam potrebu da kažem i nešto više...i već neko vrijeme želim da vam se obratim manje formalno. Uh, da možete vidjeti kako sam trenutno zbunjena: šta da napišem, kako da sročim, kako da ne zvuči glupavo? zato se unaprijed izvinjavam na moguće nepovezanosti... iako neću reći ni napisati ništa posebno

pops of yellow ** detalji u žutom

via seventeen doors

 Add a pop of yellow for instant refreshment in your home. A few days ago I've learned that babies don't love yellow, it makes them cry. I wouldn't test it and paint kids room in yellow.
Give your home a bit of sunshine with yellow details and make everyone sigh when visiting you ** Nekoliko detalja u žutoj boji će odmah osvježiti prostoriju i podstaći dobro raspoloženje. Naučila sam prije par dana nešto novo iz psihologije boja - bebe i sasvim mala djeca je nikako ne vole, i mnogo plaču kada su okruženi sa dosta žute. Zato je bolje ne ispitivati da li je to istina i ne bojati dječije sobice u žuto. Umjereno sa žutom i pravi utisak neće izostati, prijatelji će se pitati šta ste to mijenjali da odjednom sve izgleda bolje, a vi im otkrijte tajnu - sunce je u vašem domu :)

perfect home no.29 ** savršen dom br.29

It's not quite spring-y interior for this time of year, but I find it beautiful and sophisticated. Grey and brown together with carefuly chosen details create cozy and elegant space. Glamorous furniture looks good and more casual paired with mdf coffee tables or clear fiberglass side table, industrial lighting and oversized letters. Looking at this home, seems so easy to achieve harmony with diferent interior design styles ** Predstavljeni ambijent baš i nije proljećni, ali mi se jako dopada suptilna sofisticiranost koja je postignuta u ovoj simpatičnoj kućici. Topao i elegantan enterijer stvoren je kombinacijom sive i braon boje kao i pažljivim izborom detalja. Iako je očigledna ljubav prema stilskom namještaju, tu se odlično uklapaju stočići od medijapana i stočić od fiberglasa, predimenzionirana slova i industrijski luster u trpezariji. Djeluje kao da je tako lako postići harmoniju mješavinom stilova u uređenju enterijera.

perfect home no.28 ** savršen dom br.28

This charming apartment enchanted  me by it's simplicity and beautiness. And I like the fact the owner earned that apartment and is just 26 years old, because that's almost impossible for most of us... I admire her for independency and courage** Očarao me  ovaj apsolutno šarmantan i jednostavan stan, čija vlasnica ima samo 26 godina, a sama ga je zaradila. Tu činjenicu naglašavam, zato što je većini nedostižna...ili ga ne možemo zaraditi, ili ga zaradimo kada imamo mnogo više godina (da ne kažem - postanemo bake i deke u velikom broju slučajeva). Svakako, i kada su mogućnosti velike, potrebna je doza hrabrosti i SAM kupiti svoj stan, kamoli kuću. Divim se ovoj djevojci na samostalnosti i nezavisnosti (ova dva pojma nisu ista, jel da?)

mmmm...not quite (not at all), but this photo I found yesterday shows exactly what I have in mind for my living/family room. I couldn't believe I found a space almost to the details true to my sketches. I didn't show them, nore I will, as this is the only thing I am supersticious about. Hope eventually my room will look like this. We're selling our old sofa, and will have a hand-me-down blue sofa (not as pretty as this one, but it can be adorable)
My husband will love a room like this, I know for sure, and that's my main goal - to make us both happy regarding room design and functionality ** hm, nije baš moja soba, ali je skoro pa identična mojim nacrtima...jer uskoro dobijamo plavu sofu, pa sam razmišljala kako je istaći na pravi način. Ono što je sigurno, je da bi i moj muž uživao u ovakvoj dnevnoj sobi, što mi je i bio glavni cilj...da oboje budemo srećni izgledom i funkcionalnošću.

{perfect home no.27} Tim Lam's of Design Maze ** savršen dom br.27

 One of my favourite apartment tours is a home of Tim Lam, blogger behind Design Maze. I LOVE his sense of style and breaking all "designer rules". Combination of patterns, cheerfull colours, textures and shapes creates such a dynamic space that makes my heart goes faster. Few months ago Tim redesigned his living room, now it looks "more mature" as he said... I like it as much as the previous look. **
Jedan od meni omiljenih stanova je krajnje zanimljiv i vedar dom Tim Lama, autora bloga Design Maze. Oduševljava me njegov smisao za lijepo, i spremnost na rušenje svih "dizajnerskih pravila" (koja stvarno ne postoje). Kombinacije dezena, boja, tekstura i oblika stvorila je dinamičan prostor od kojeg meni zaigra srce. Prije nekoliko mjeseci Tim je preuredio svoj dnevni boravak i pretvorio ga u malo "zreliji" prostor...i podjednako mi se sviđa. Obavezno pogledajte više slika na blogu, kao i prvobitnu transformaciju

{weekend project} entryway makeover ** {uradi sam} preuredi predsoblje



Make a statement in your hallway/entryway with a stencil or photo projector. Birch tree forest is my favourite motif, with installed hooks to simulate branches. Simple wooden bench with colourful cushions is a stylish necessity, providing much needed functionality and storage. ** Uz pomoć šablona ili projektora, na bijelom zidu uz dodatak jedne boje po izboru, oslikati brezovu šumu. Postaviti pojedinačne čiviluke kao simulaciju grana koje štrče, a neizostavan dodatak je i jednostavna drvena klupica sa mekim jastucima. Kakvo osvježenje za uzan hodnik ili predsoblje bez prirodnog svijetla.

perfect home no.26 ** savršen dom br.26

The kitchen is my favourite part of this cosy little apartment ( about 46m2 ). Open shelves create plenty storage with an easy access, and interesting focal point. I would love to have a restaurant-like kitchen, probably my husband would love it, too as he's the one who really enjoys cooking (I mostly cook because I have to). This apartment is kind of mid-century with a hint of industrial. Love the combination. Looks like the apartment has no enough natural light, so the chosen colour palette with proper lighting creates cozy home. ** Kuhinja je, po meni, definitivno najbolji dio ovog stana površine 46m2. Otvorene police čine sve stvari lako dostupnim, a ujedno čine cijeli prostor zanimljivim. Dopada mi se ideja da imam kuhinju inspirisanu restoranskim, a pretpostavljam da bi se svidjela i mom mužu, s obzirom da on stvarno uživa da kuva te bi mu ovakva kuhinja bila funkcionalna (ja doduše kuvam samo kada moram). Sviđa mi se kombinacija pretežno stila s polovine XX vijeka i malo industrijskog. a čini se da stan baš i ne dobija puno dnevne svjetlosti, te ova paleta boja uz dobro višestrano osvjetljenje stvara prijatan dom.

{e-design} family friendly small apartment ** mali stan prilagođen mladoj porodici

I was hired to help organize a 48m2 small apartment. Kitchen, dining area and living room are in one space, with one short interior wall between the kitchen and dining area. Tiny area should cover several diferent functions. Small working spot with a computer had to be included in the living room, and finding the way to organize large amount of books, magazines and plenty of family memories. The space had to be safe and functional for a little girl with enough toy storage. Client wanted natural pastel colours and romantic shabby cottage style. ** Pozvana sam da pomognem u boljoj organizaciji malog stana od 48m2 u potkrovlju. Kuhinja, trpezarijski dio i dnevna soba čine jednu cjelinu, a granicu kuhinje i ostatka dnevnog prostora čini pregradni zid visine 1m. U taj isti prostor trebalo je smjestiti i radni kutak, odnosno mjesto za kompjuter i najbolje moguće iskoristiti raspoloživi prostor za knjige, magazine, mnogo porodičnih fotografija i dragocjenih detalja. Izazov je bio i kako stvoriti ujedinjen prostor pogodan i siguran za malo dijete, kao i mjesto za sve djetetove igračke a da ne preovladaju. Jedan tako mali prostor je morao u sebi objediniti mnogo funkcija.
Klijenti su željeli prirodne, nježne boje, i seoski shabby način uređenja sa romantičnom notom.
