Eye Scandi

Art Design = Scandi sweetness Happy Saturday, everyone!For quite sometime I used to buy and sell mid-20th century furniture. About four years ago, I realised vintage design has finally gone viral. I knew then it was truly thriving and will do so for a long time. I hope.Amongst my collection, Scandinavian pieces are always popular, just after Americana. I believe its because they are organic, useful, and radiates unparalleled elegance and simplicity. Kathryn Tylers kitchen ❤ Furniture Last week, I sent an email to Kathryn Tyler, a young interior designer whose Falmouth home was featured a year ago on Channel 4s Grand Designs. Originally, I was going to ask her a few questions as part of my blog Q & A. She replied to my email immediately but politely declined because shes been constantly subjected to similar things, presumably as an aftermath of her TV appearance. Nonetheless, she was happy for me to have her home photos shown here. Kathryns Corkellis House Kathryns house — which she designed herself and project-managed — exudes magnificent sense of space, fluidity, and freshness. Thanks to her understated aesthetic ideals and her choice of Scandinavian furniture.

With their history of producing high-quality textiles, its no surprise that the next logical step is to create clothing designs that are well-researched, well-constructed as influenced by their love of architecture, and are affordable. Finnish brand Marimekko SS11 via 2pintaa.com Marimekko has been one of the leading textile companies since the 1950s in Europe and now that vintage is back, theyre stronger than ever. Spots, stripes, and big flowery pot prints are their trademark and theyve never stopped re-inventing them.

Are you a proud owner of their clothing lines or using their furniture in your lovely home? Id love to hear from you.❤❤❤Credit:Jobingco.com for Kathryn Tylers house Linea-Studio.co.uk Kathryns design studio❤❤❤
