modern home with lilac, pink and green accents

In the 40m2 studio, full of space-saving ideas, the room layout is enhanced by multifunctional furnishing solutions. The design solution meets the needs of the owner without giving up separate kitchen and place to sleep - out of sight. Just across the entrance there is positioned a big storage block for wardrobes that opens on both sides, for bed, refrigerator and some more hidden storage compartments.

we can dream in colour

Hello friends and readers, it’s been a while since I last posted something. There’s no lack of ideas and things to say, there is lack of time. Or maybe energy. That’s why I highly appreciate these short moments when I can share something here on the blog.

Today I am very happy to show you one amazing colourful home.

pink, blue, yellow…sofa

In the era of neutral sofas as the first and best choice to create a well styled room even without decorating skills, you find yourself coveting for a bright coloured sofa or even patterned one. Go with it! and if you wonder how to decorate the room around such a vibrant and statement piece, I’ll try to help you decide. Depending on the look you want, you may want to showcase the vivid colour of the sofa, or make it blend with the rest of the room. The colors you choose to surround the sofa are key to achieving the right design for the space.

{perfect home No. 34} Nordic maxi coloured

This lovely house features a different kind (my kind) of Nordic décor. It has a white background but it was only used to make the rest of the elements stand out. The huge blank canvas was filled with lots of colourful and vibrant details. Many different colors were combined but they were beautifully balanced. It’s interesting how each room or space has its own palette of colors. The kitchen is mostly white with black and ocher. Then the space continues into the living room where an entire wall was painted ochre. It was combined with turquoise and blue accents and a brown sofa and the contrast is quite beautiful. Adding purple to the palette starts in entryway and continues to the upstairs, where you climb on bright red stairs. Upstairs the palette is calmer, perfect for rest area. Exterior of the house is unspeakably lovely

colourful rented apartment for family

Family living and bright colours are the main focus in this rental apartment. The strong colour palette kicks you right as you enter the apartment. Green, yellow, pink and blue may seem like an overwhelming colour choice for many, but the owner have combined the colors, so it all still works quite stylish. Whole space feels energized, youthful and happy. I dig the entrance, dining corner in the kitchen and small bedroom in red. If you want your space to be modern and affordable, this is the style you should be going for.

{love this space} happy family space

I’m totally crazy about this place! Absolutely perfect composition of colors, shapes and textures. This open space in coastal home in Croatia is work of two famous creative minds – academic painter Saša Šekoranja and interior designer Dean Franić. I must add it’s like they get into people’s heads to understand their wants and needs – they create so different and versatile interiors. I would love to learn from designers like them.

bold and colorful designer’s home

Interior of this home shows us there’re no boundaries when comes to combining colors. The trick is in mixing colors with same intensity and creating neutral backdrop with black, white or grey. You’ll notice in this home of Bradford Shellhammer that all walls are neutral, although dark, so the colorful accessory and furniture can really pop out without looking immature.

color of 2013: emerald green in interiors

when east meets west ** spoj istoka I zapada

Scandinavian style, design and interiors are always outstanding, and when you add a bit of your culture to the mix – the result is truly beautiful eclectic home full of personality. The main color is white, there are some black and colorful touches like yellow, pink or blue, but they don’t overwhelm the look. Plants and flowers give a romantic touch and bring extra coziness to the space. Storage solutions are smart, and simple solid color canvases make big impact on the space

what’s more to say?

{home tour} style to remember

Thanks to my blogger friend Olga, I found out about this unusual home of an jewelry artist. Unusual because of the living room wall color. Most of the designers, especially trendsetters, would say that smudge wall color is big no-no as it always looks dirty and unpleasant. it’s not too pretty here, too…but it’s camouflaged by amazing furniture pieces and great color choices. The owner truly applied her knowledge of color and composition. The rest of the home is quite amazing…in strong color and pattern. Big style!

bohemian bright home

What to say I haven’t said before? Don’t want to repeat myself. Everyone knows my fondness for quirky interiors, bursting with colour and personality. you just have to be that person to pull this bohemian look out. I wish I could be this brave…

Šta da kažem a da se ne ponavljam? I ptice na grani znaju koliko volim neobične enterijere, koji pršte od boja I pečata ličnosti koje žive u njima. Jer prosto, da bi se postigao ovako dobar I skladan boemski enterijer, morate biti takva osoba u svakom segmentu. Ja priznajem da se još uvijek bojim ovolike hrabrosti I eksperimentisanja. Malo fali da sve to eksplodira iz mene…fali mi podsticaj. Taman toliki da se ukućani ne protive novim, naizgled čudnim idejama. ah, valjda će I to biti…

happy home with warm accents ** veseo stan u toplim akcentima

Pink, copper, red, green and blue. Looks good together on all-white base. Cheerful and fun. Just what I needed to see in this cold and rainy weather. Can you believe there is just 36sqm?

vibrant contemporary penthouse ** živopisan savremen stan

What a beautiful, happy, vibrant home. I can't decide on what I like more: jungle on the wall,  interesting chairs or colour palette.
Maurizio Goviannoni is the creator of this amazing 65sqm penthouse. He describes his work as a blend of cultures, with a bit of play and irony, creating a joyful and relaxing atmosphere.

most amazing small apartment ** najzanimljiviji mali stan

Can't describe how I am thrilled to find photos of this AMAZING and SO coool apartment! There are great design ideas for small spaces, especially if you're a renter. The owner is tv show producer and a blogger Janet Lee. This lady has style and experience in small space living without sacrificing stuff and colour. Although I love purified apartments, decorated minimally...this one screams my name. This style is much more me, and my aim is to create something similar at my home. Janet published a book Living in a nutshell several months ago, have to buy it as soon as possible. She's ultimately inspiring to me.

modern family apartment in Warsaw ** moderan porodični stan u Varšavi

Great ideas, overall functionality, well used space, kid-friendly environment, positive vibrations with loads of vibrant colours...that's what I see in this Poland apartment. Measures approx 65sqm but it seems like a hundred. I bet my kids would be enormously happy in this place. And nothing would make me happy more :)

home full of energy and colour ** dom pun boja i energije

This almost 70m2 odd shaped apartment was so neglected, that owners had to demolish everything, and start with a clean slate.
As it can be seen on the plan functionality was more important than tradition. They gained space with a gallery above the bathrooms, extra light and sights with the inner windows. All white makes the apartment look brighter and bigger, as well as shiny surfaces do. The coloured mood lighting makes the focal point and it was based on their own design, using glass of various colours and LEDs. 

 Stan u Budimpešti, veličine skoro 70 kvadratnih metara, bio je u veoma lošem stanju kada su ga sadašnji vlasnici ugledali. Ipak, uspjeli su da uoče potencijal. Vrlo neobičan oblik stana je bio izazov za organizovanje, ali je i nagovještavao zanimljiv rezultat. S obzirom da je originalno stan bio prilično mračan, vlasnici su odlučili ispuniti ga bjelinom i reflektujućim, sjajnim površinama, što je doprinijelo sada prozračnoj, svijetloj i prijatnoj atmosferi. Da bi izbjegli sterilnost, prostor su akcentovali jarkim bojama, pa sve odiše razigranošću i pozitivnom energijom.

mustard yellow ** senf žuta

Did you know that yellow is at the bottom on the list of peoples' favourite colour? Don't understand why. For me, it's a happy, cheery colour, full of positive energy.
It symbolizes the light and divine glory, as well as jealousy, envy and hate. How contradictious, right? It used to be symbol of quarantine through history.
I don't love all yellow shades though...I prefer warm yellows, especially mustard yellow. Looks great on clothes, and I love to see it in interiors - both in small or big doses.

 

{love this space} orange and aqua ** narandžasto i plavo

photo via bhg

Love this space! feels so good with just right amount of cold and warm hues for comfy room to spend autumn rainy days in. Be careful when choosing flooring, patterned samples can be tricky. Here, it looks warm and interesting, creating a statement. Everything else except the wallpapers is in solid colour.
For creating this look combine rich wood finish with dark grey furniture. Paint the walls in aqua tone to bring the light in. Choose all textiles in bold colour like orange or terracotta, perfect for this time of year. Don't be afraid to bring some accents in deep green, for example in glass (like the stone lamp)

Ovdje je sasvim prava razmjera hladnih i toplih tonova za kreiranje udobnog kutka za odmor u jesenjim kišnim danima. Predlažem da budete pažljivi pri izboru ovakvog tipa podne obloge, jer može djelovati ili fantastično ili potpuno suprotno. Ovdje plijeni pažnju, jer jedino pod i tapeta imaju šaru, dok je sve ostalo jednobojno.
Želite li stvoriti ovakav ambijent kombinujte tamnu, toplu boju drveta uz sivi namještaj. Da rasteretite prostor od teških elemenata, zidove obojite u nježnu nijansu plavozelene, a sve akcentujte kroz tekstile u jarkoj boji. Za jesen i nadolazeću zimu topla narandžasta je odličan izbor. Nemojte oklijevati da unesete i koji dodatni akcent u recimo tamno zelenoj boji, ali samo u laganim materijalima, kao što je recimo staklo.

{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.
