White House in Sweden

This is the last week before we go on holidays. We are going home, to Argentina, on Saturday and won't be back until January 23rd. Absolutely no posting for a month! Am joking. I need my daily tours. But after Christmas we'll be going to Chapadmalal, and there is no Internet connection there so, there will be a brief hiatus. Just enough for you to start missing me! :)

This large white wooden home blends into the winter landscape in Brastad, Bohuslän. It looks like it has been here for ages, but it is brand new. The outside resembles the late 1800s Swedish country home. Inside, an open floor plan spreads over 300 square meters. The entire ground floor is one large room with a ceiling height of up to 7.5 meters. Upstairs there is only one bedroom and a living room. The interior style is eclectic: a little rustic, a little modern, some antique and some industrial design.

Köket från Lidhults är platsbyggt. Ovanför bänken hänger en tallrikshylla, nytillverkad efter gammal modell. Diskhon i porslin, från Villeroy & Boch. På väggen en kungalampett i hamrat tenn av Malin Appelgren Paulsson.

A brand new week starts and off we go to Spain to visit this restored apartment, decorated by Ana Ros. A lovely combination of traditional and contemporary styles with a soothing palette in every room.

Guesthouse in Girona

And here you have a second post for today. Hope this makes you happy, well, if only just a wee bit.
This Guest House called Can Bassa, part of a fourteenth century farmhouse, is located in the old town of Madremanya in Girona, Spain. Originally, it had neither a bath nor kitchen, just some rooms on three floors, where - the owners believe- day laborers who worked in the fields could have slept. To enjoy the views and feel the presence of the Les Gavarres mountains, the owners decided to place the living room on the second floor of the house.
