European Inspiration...

A little Tuesday inspiration....I found this home on bolaget & am now daydreaming of taking a trip abroad. Anyone else feel the same after looking at  gorgeous European homes???

This one in particular was so amazing...from all the details on the ceilings, the super tall thin doors & the black & white checkered floors. 

So many of us will probably NEVER walk into a home like this in our lifetime - perhaps that's why we're so drawn to them right??

  5. Speaking of inspiration--a swiss design company has used my brother/sis-in-law's appt in Lausanne on their website. And one of your prints is showcased! Go to http://www.myotaku.ch/sf/index.html
    See pictures number 72 & 83 in the Gallerie d'images.

    ENJOY!

  7. The apartment looks beautiful and it looks quite big. Love the molding. There are some websites, where you could do a house swap. That might be neat.

  9. The floors and ceilings are just gorgeous! It's a shame homes aren't built in the same way any more.

    And yes, I'm itching for a little European vacay too.

  13. What a gorgeous home! AH-mazing ceiling moldings and love the checkerboard painted wood floors! I think we get so used to the blank, builder box homes most of the US lives in that we are drawn to homes with the great architecture and character that so many European homes possess. Anytime I see a great apartment, or even just a beautiful cityscape (like the view from their little balcony) it makes me want to hop a flight! As always, Thanks for sharing the beautiful pics!

  15. Great images. I love the relief plaster on the ceiling, and painted wood flooring. It all looks so worn in and comfortable, but beautiful.

  19. I really love this! - The checkered floor, the settee, the touch of pink and the books. Plus the lighting. It has an approachable feel yet is thoroughly screaming class. Now that's a home!

  29. Wow, that looks great. I'm dreaming of stucco ceilings ever since and now I'm about to get my own. Just that they are not as stunning as these here, as mine are from DIY superstore :)
