Not much happening on the blog these days. Working to get the White Punch site up and running and will come back better and stronger when the shop is up and running!!

In the meantime, take care!

Meet the blogger London

 

This weekend I attended the Meet the Blogger conference in London. Ok, so I would not technically call myself a ‘blogger’ yet, but I was keen to go and meet other home, design and lifestyle bloggers, as well as attending lessons and listening to well established bloggers and their stories.

On Saturday we went to the fancy ME Hotel off the Strand, where the program for the day was carefully put together by the organisers. It was an exciting day where we learned a lot and I made some great connections with some truly inspiring people. One of my highlights was my lesson with the talented photographer Paul Craig, where I actually learned how to go beyond my automatic settings on my camera. Photography is really something I whish I knew more about, so this lesson was really valuable to me and put me in the right direction. It was also interesting to hear well established bloggers like Yvonne Eijkenduijn of Yves Town and Will Taylor of Bright Bazaar talk about their experiences in the blogging world and they were also sharing their tips on how to make inspiring posts.

Then on Sunday there was a City Design tour organised by the lovely Tina Bernstein, of Colourliving Blog, which took us to Portobello where we snooped in several interior shops. My highlights of the tour was Tom Dixon at Portobello Dock, a curiosity shop called Les Couilles Du Chien, a lovely little ceramic shop called Ceramica Blue and the always wonderful Pedlars. Again it was such an inspiring day and I am so glad I went, even though I am not a 'proper' blogger yet :)

Till next time, take care.

Sneak Peak

I am in love......

I am sitting here finalizing our order to the fabulous Danish brand House Doctor. Decisions decisions.....I am so spoilt for choice! I have been a big fan for a long time, marvelling over their unique products in shops back home in Norway, where they have been established since their beginning, some 12 years ago. Their style is provocative, personal and informal. I think their products have a strong industrial vibe, but with a kind of soft touch. They are experts in being a step ahead of trends and their mantra is to mix elements, rather than matching them, just what White PUNCH is trying to create. Here are some more inspirational pictures from their Spring/Summer catalogue. Enjoy!

I could live here...

I totally love this apartment! When I first saw this in the Danish edition of Elle Decoration, I ripped it straight out and put it in my dream house folder. This place belongs to the talented designer Yvonne Koné and shoot by the equally gifted photographer Line Klein. If I were to sum up this stunning home, it would be that it has a beautiful simplicity with an earthy depth, a look that is very hard to pull off. I will let the photos do the talking, enjoy! Amazingly styled by Stine Langvad.
