Apartment love...

 

My absolute favorite apartment right now is the new home of my ex-roommate, stylist and former editor of Norwegian Elle Decoration, Line Dammen. This home is right up my alley color wise (greys,whites, browns and black), furniture wise (a great mix of old and new) and style wise (ethnic meets industrial meets retro meets modern meets antique and so on). Yes please!!! Line is now working  in Kamille magazine, being in charge of the food- and interior section. These are a few of the images that was featured a few weeks ago as a "get to know" the new and talented addition to the Kamille staff.

It´s x-mas time...

It is less than two months until Christmas and several magazines are already out with their Christmas issue. It seems like Christmas hits earlier and earlier every year, but I guess people like to be ahead with the preparations. Have to admit I´m one of them, especially with the presents. The first ones have already been bought and are secretly hidden in the house....

What we can´t get enough of is recipes, gift and decoration ideas and the x-mas issues are full of them.

In Kamilles x-mas issue you can see some of Alexandra Villefrance´s wonderful decorations and gift wrapping ideas.

rust & rustic

As written in my profile, I am a big fan of old, rusty and rustic things. Every time I visit my local thrift store,  I look for something "new" to bring home to go with my collection. My last find was an old pair of scissors and a screw and bolt which both had no purpose than as decoration on one of my shelves. My good collegue and friend, stylist and designer Kari Delotis share the same passion, so we decided to do something on the theme. We gathered new and old rusty and rustic findings, and the result was these images that were featured in Interiørmagasinet earlier this fall.

This weekend I had a workshop in digital photography for beginners for seven eager girls who wanted to learn the very basics in photography. It was two long days with learning shutters and f-stops, some lighting techniques and a little bit of photoshop. The information flow was high and the learning curve steep, and I think there were a few of them that dreamt about numbers that night. The  images turned out amazing as you can see here!

Fiskebar- Antwerp

When we were in Antwerp, Belgium earlier this year, my travelcompanion, Kirsten and I stopped for lunch at the cool restaurant Fiskebar on Marnixplaats. Specializing in seafood, one side of the restaurant, the bar, serves small dishes like oysters, fish and chips and clams, and the restaurant "next door" serves full courses, for both lunch and dinner.  Great food in relaxed and non snobbish environments. Love love love!

If your going to Antwerp and love fish, this is the place to eat!
