5 Happy Inspirations: Summer Treats


With high temperatures in most parts of Europe it is due time to mark this hot Wednesday with five selected summer treats to bring in a visual freshness into our homes and gardens. I mean seriously, I can not concentrate at work in the office, I can not sit around in my hot rooftop apartment, even sitting outside under the sun seems a torture in the boiling city. So it is time to escape! But up to then, I am digressing my thought to fresh looks of vibrant summer colours and materials for happy homes. Let's roll, friends:

1. Essenza Mare bedding by Urban Outfitters: This looks so summery and happy, it makes me smile immediately (despite the beads of sweat on my forehead).

2. Tivoli Chair by Verner Panton from Montana: In Copenhagen I fell in love with this design beauty in cheerful blue. This makes for a happy statement in a home, on a terrace, balcony or in the garden (lucky those who have one).

3. Ceramics mugs by Toast: These handmade mugs in lovely colours are a perfect choice for the coffee break on early, fresh summer mornings.

4. Painterly cushion by Jennifer Lee Designs: This beautiful cushion is a summer treat for your sofa - especially if it is a monochrome one.

5. Nautical chest/bench by milanari.com: This chest/bench with its nautical, East coast style is not only visually pleasing but also practical: you can store your extra blankets, linen, cushions inside and then use it as a bench. Excellent!

So, how are you tackling these hot days (if it is hot where you are)? Anything that would appease your boiling status from the above shown selection?

Happy hump day, folks!

  6. By the time I am writing here, it has cooled down significantly in Berlin. Quite a RELIEF I must admit, even though I really dislike complaining about heat, considering how much I complain about the cold. I must be getting old. Can't take the heat like I used to ;)

    Nice treats here Igor! The Toast cups are my faves!

  7. Liebe Igor,
    ich mag das Tischchen neben dem Bett! Und der Stuhl erinnert mich an meine Kindheit, in den 70´ern hatte man oft dieses Material, und wenn man drauf saß, war einem nie langweilig, man konnte so schön daran "rumzupfen" ;-)
    A Happy new week Anja
