Having rugs in your home can make a enormous difference to the appearance, personality and style for your home. Those who never thought of keeping rugs in their house cannot realize the importance, elegance and difference in the overall living and impression that it will make.

There are many benefits of rugs and I have gathered just 5 of many…

#1. Creates an instant and perfect focal point of colour for your room.

#2. Rugs act as a shield for your hardwood floors. They protect the floor from all kinds of stains and scratches.

#3. They  help to absorb loud noise of radio and TV, as compared to a room with hard surfaces.

#4. Rugs are made up of many different materials that will keep your house warm, thus saving your heating expenses.

#5. One fun thing to do is it can be hanged on the wall. Cool idea, no?

Have a good day all:-)

Cabin by the sea

By Bathroom, Bedroom, Colours, Flooring, Furniture, My work, Rugs, Wood One Comment

Rita and Arvid tok kontakt with me over a year ago. They owned a little cabin by the sea that needed a makeover. It was already quite old, outdated and because of its location and sentimental value they wanted to start using it with their own family til the sommer months.

Consideration to regulations of houses being so close to the sea, these days,  there was not much allowance for building out. In any direction! There was, though, allowed to build out the small terrasse by the kitchen. Here was placed glass sliding doors to bring the beautiful views and nature outside in.  Cladding out side the house was updated and modernized and at the same time a new terrasse was made at the entrance door. Inside walls were taken away between the kitchen and living room. The bathroom was made slightly bigger by building a little shower nook into the guestroom! Maksimalising the little space there was and a super good idea! There was made plenty of space for the garderobe in the guest room and walk-in garderobe in the main bedroom giving loads of room for extra storage. A window was suggested at the end of the hall in the entranceway adding extra light and giving extra depth to the hallway.

Take a look at all the pic’s under and get inspirert!

Moving spaces to the next level!

By Rugs No Comments

Choosing the right rug size, shape and quality can be daunting, I know. Are you looking for that last element that will just finish off your interior? Well look no further. Tuesday night at Teppesenteret I’ll be talking rugs and carpet (and all things interior, of course!) on how to move your space from mundane into something magical! Believe me it can be achieved.

You’ll be getting the low down of tips and tricks (perhaps I should say hands on:-) on how to create that best ever colourscheme with a rug. I’ll be combining rugs with curtains, wallpaper, cushions and other interior elements together (from Lobelia:-) so you can see how easy it is to harmonize and balance together a whole interior! And of course there will be loads of time for questions and answers afterwards. Sound good?

PS: If you want help to match a rug in to your interior, take along a colour sample or material sample so we’ll help you find the right rug!!

PSS: Almost forget:-) you’ll have a change to win a place at my next ‘MASTERCLASS’ course as well. The winner will be drawn that evening. Can’t wait!!

 

 

See you there…
