Photographer, Elisabeth Hudson's Ex-Home Tour

How many times have you seen a home & felt instantly inspired??  Well, this happens to me quite often. It doesn't help that I frequent book stores, design blogs & always read design magazines like Elle Decor, Loft Life, Living Etc. Inspirational Spaces, a blog by Elisabeth Hudson (out of Olso, Norway), did just that for me. Instantly inspired! I found her blog before I did my office makeover & the bookshelf in her home (which she recently put on the market & sold) was the reason why I designed the bookshelf in my office.

Have you ever been instantly inspired where you wanted to re-create something you saw??

Elisabeth Hudson shot all these amazing photos of her home before she sold it.  There's a lot of white, but I hear that's typical in several foreign countries no? Anyway, I love this home in so many ways. Her furniture alone, captivates  me....and I hope it inspires you as well. Thank you Elisabeth for sharing the place you once called home, with all of us.













Elisabeth shoots for several of the top interior magazines & she works both as a writer & photographer. You can find more of her work here.

  16. Of course! What is harder for me is to not just straight up copy it but instead make it mine in some way. I love being inspired by all of the fabulous blogs/magazines out there, including yours!

  24. Every single room and space is amazing and together looks like stylish and light filled home. She does have amazing taste and style. I like the combination of black, white and grey walls with different timber finishes and the mismatched furniture. It gives to this home it‘s own personality.

    Best regards,
    Elli

  25. I love every single room in her home. Gorgeous!

  26. What a pretty, tidy, organized home! Love it.

    YES I have been inspired by decor photos to apply it in my home. I'll often have a problem area that I'll be mulling over while doing other things, then one day I'll come across a photo that has a creative answer to my dilemma, and I'll GASP and print the photo and apply it at home!

    The last idea like that was to take all my magazines that were in four parts of my apartment and stack them up above my kitchen cupboards since I'm not a kitschy kind of a decorator that fills that space up with little things. Now the area looks chic and tidy with books and magazines and I have more free space in my apartment!

    That sounds like it was a great solution. I love when that happens, you get instantly inspired & then you see the results in your own home! (After you do it of curse)!

    I know what you mean...I think making it your own is a good thing. It becomes almost original in a sense, because it doesn't look exact;y like the one you saw. However, I admit, there are times where I want the exact item etc in my home....
