What would you expect to see in a painter’s home? Of course paintings! Now imagine this: a painter living in Sweden who has a modern Scandinavian loft with plenty of stunning colorful artwork? I know, bliss! I couldn’t resist sharing this home with you all and I now once again proved to myself and all of you how big sucker I am for colors and Scandinavian flair and although I often find myself cheating on these two with French loveliness, rustic charm or vintage pieces – my heart will always skip a beat for Scandinavian style with a colorful twist.

Neutral Brightness
This home tour I came across yesterday is my dream come true (well, at least that’s how I feel now). Although we all know I adore colors, when it comes to my home, I prefer it to be calming, laid-back and comfy, so neutral colors are way more appropriate than splashes of bright shades. I liked how the home has vintage touches with a modern, stylish flair. Oh and there were some colors in the home, seen in wall art or cushions – just the perfect pops of a subtly cheerful color palette!
‘Neon bright’ home tour
I was flipping through the special edition of Adore magazine the other day and spotted a home tour which is definitely not for everyone! Decorated mostly with dark hues, the home does have pops of bright neon colors seen in coffee tables, decorative letters, wall art and more. And I remembered that I got to see some pictures of the home before yet never knew they belong to one space (and couldn’t even imagine this!). Here are a few pictures:
Home Tour: Nicole Cohen of Sketch42
Rue Magazine issue three went live yesterday and I cannot begin to describe how fabulous it is! Seriously, it was almost surreal to see SO much inspiration in one place, at one time. I perused the issue a few times last night and was nearly not breathing with every single turned page. I adore it, the issue is pure fabulousness and I highly recommend it, you’ll find there everything your heart might desire: fashion, interiors and home tours, shops, mood boards and many behind the scenes pictures and videos! And of course there was one home tour I just couldn’t ignore and that is the home of my fellow blogger Nicole Cohen, author of Sketch42 blog! Her home is to die for! Combining classic, eclectic and modern styles, Nicole’s nest is dreamy! Enough talking, here’s a glimpse at Nicole‘s home (find more in Rue):
Home Tour: Fashion designer Katie Ermilio
Hello, friends! I hope you all had great holidays and a new year off to an amazing start! My 2011 started unbelievably successful, but more about it when I’m allowed :). It’s my first post this year and what is a better way to welcome you to a new year than with a gorgeous home, belonging to a fashion designer. Ladies and gents, welcome to the Manhattan apartment of Katie Ermilio, a place full of light, romance and vintage feel! My favorite room is Katie’s bedroom, I mean mint walls, golden jewelry and a soft atmosphere – hello, gorgeousness!
Home Tour: 1970′s villa
Hi everyone! The other day I came across a 1970’s villa tour and I couldn’t help, but post it here (I’m sure there’ll be lots of you who’ll love it, just like me). You’ll ask why? Here are hints: Scandinavian, washed out colors, plenty of white and pops of bright shades. Oh and stunning artwork! There’s a vintage-y modern vibe injected in those rooms which are enchanting! The home belongs to Marie and Bill and their two children. And I suggest you to read the entire post, I was impressed, to say the least. You all know my love for everything Scandinavian and am seriously thinking my home (you know, the dream home I’ll someday own :D) will be exactly like the one I’m showing you in this post, the below pictures are undoubtedly landing in my inspiration folder. What about you? How your dream home looks like?
Home Tour: modern Villa Villekulla
Hi, everyone! TGIF, right? This week seemed to me so so long (I was sick last weekend, so it didn’t actually feel like a weekend at all), on Tuesday I was thinking it’s already Friday, so today I’m REALLY happy to know it is indeed Friday and the weekend is ahead. I want to share with you pictures of a home tour that’s called Villa Villekulla (you know the story of Pippi Longstocking, right? well, the story tells that Pippi lives in Villa Villekulla). The home I’m talking about is so white and crisp with splashes of bright colors seen in the artwork, pieces of furniture, rugs and the rest of the interior. Although it has plenty of white, this home feels more modern than sterile and it actually brought excitement into my heart – I want to move there! So while you’ll check the pictures, I’m going to pack my stuff :)
Wooden dream in Southern Spain
Hello, everyone! It’s Monday and it’s 1st of November, which means a new start of the week AND of the month! Can you believe it’s already November? So, the traditional Serbian Monday is off today (the article about another Serbian artist is postponed until next week due to a few complications), so I have for you today a delightful home tour. You saw that lately I’ve been very enamored with the warmth of a wooden home, paired with crispy white walls and bright popping details everywhere, so this home in Southern Spain is my dream home, people! The very first second I saw it, it took my breath away and just made my heart skip a beat! The home brings warmth, a home-y atmosphere and the perfect feeling for a happy life! The thrifted vintage accessories add a bohemian touch, to only increase the level of charm! Here are some pictures:
Home Tour: Eclectic and charming
I spotted this home in casaviva Serbia, a design mag which is as inspiring as you can imagine! The home belongs to Branko Klanscek, who’s living in Belgrade and whose home was once the atelier of famous Serbian painters: Ljubisa Naumovic, Pedja Milosavljevic and Marko Krsmanovic (I know none of them and I’m embarrassed). He restored everything, keeping that artsy feeling though, so today Branko’s home is an eclectic place, with ethnic touches, traditional warm wood and high-end pieces. However altogether it does feel home-y and livable.
Home Tour: Crystal Gentilello
You know who is Crystal, right? Blogger behind Plush Palate, founder and editor-in-chief of Rue magazine! Her home was featured in the 1st issue of Rue (blogged here), but I couldn’t help myself and just had to post about it on creamylife, because Crystal is close to be my idol and the image of a modern perfection! She’s young, ambitious, knowing what she wants to do and be, her sense of aesthetics is able to amaze others (like me) and what I see in Crystal is a person who I want to be when I grow up, whom I want to learn from about style, art and everything that makes this life beautiful. Crystal’s home is no surprise a serene place, in pastel colors meant to bring joy and the perfect, calming atmosphere for a warm home. Not to mention how stylish that place is! It oozes European charm and I tell you it’s blissful! Here are some pictures, the entire tour can be seen in Rue.
