Our house is a very very very fine house..


with two cats in the yard...

My dad used to play that song when i was growing up and i loved it, and now my house does have two cats in the yard. I love the colours of our house in the rooms that we have sorted out and that reflect our taste. I am especially keen on the colours of our rooms reflecting the particular quality of light we have here. It is cool and bluish, quite a harmonious colour and i did not want to use colours that jar with that or strike a false note.

I love scandinavian palettes and the dusty greens and blues that seem to make me think of the design from there. I also love georgian decor and the lovely blues and greys that Farrow and ball use for their paints. We can't afford Farrow and Ball, but we can aspire!
