Rut Karadottir's Home

The last thing I should be doing right now is drooling over beautiful interiors when my own house is beyond chaos. Things have been pretty hectic around here with my husband away on business (again) and me trying to prepare for our holiday next week and coping with a persistent toothache. The boys seem to sense my moment of weakness as Oscar "painted" the carpet with his crayons and Alexander threw a pile of folded towels into the bath water - never a dull moment. 

Anyway, I (hopefully) have another hour of 'me time' while the boys have their midday sleep and I want to take you on a little tour of Interior Designer Rut Karadottir's home. She's studied and worked in Italy before returning to Iceland in 1997 to set up her own firm. I like how contemporary yet warm and inviting her home feels. 

I hope you are having a great day and I will be back with another post later this week. Hopefully with some of my finished sewing projects - ready to take on holiday.

Tschüss...

    I love that photo wall.I am wondering if I could do that in part of the hallway in my small home. Making cushion covers at the moment. Inspired by your ideas for a quick change to living room decor!

    Your blog is so very lovely! I am a great lover of all things Scandinavian. Your photos really make me want to visit Europe. My husband and I have been once to Germany and Spain and I am wanting to return.

    What I'm excited to see is for the light to be lit on and show it's beauty. Your house has this aura of being comfy and relaxing. I can see some Italian fine arts that adds more beauty.
