On style

admin — Wed, 09 Dec 2020 15:57:07 +0000

If I had to limit my style inspiration to one source, I would choose the @simplicitycity account by Nicole Rice on Instagram. She shares a curated selection of archive editorials, fashion ads, candid photos and movie stills that are as much about a certain feeling and attitude as clothes. The feed is the closest thing […]

Wild Geese

“You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees For a hundred miles through the desert, repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves. Tell me about your despair, yours, and I will tell you mine. Meanwhile the world goes […]

1993

admin — Mon, 23 Sep 2019 10:56:52 +0000

When searching for the balance between bohemian and minimalistic, free-form and refined, I often find myself pulling out books and images of Vincent Van Duysen’s interiors. Along with buildings, the Belgian architect focuses on interior and furniture design, and has an impressive portfolio in all three areas. But as it often happens with creative people, […]

The Art of Simple Food

admin — Thu, 15 Mar 2018 14:59:22 +0000

American food-lover Alice Waters opened her restaurant Chez Panisse in Berkeley, California, in 1971. She was only 27, with no culinary training or experience in restaurant business, but she had a vision about a little place, so she gathered a bunch of friends and created it. Back in the 1960’s, after her sophomore year in […]

Warm Minimalism

admin — Fri, 09 Mar 2018 06:58:39 +0000

Something the new wave of Californian creatives do so well is an interior style, and feeling, I call warm minimalism. These images are from the home of designer Rachel Craven in Chevy Chase Canyon on the outskirts of Los Angeles. The feeling has to do with the light. The light in Los Angeles is so […]

Move me

admin — Thu, 08 Feb 2018 14:56:09 +0000

Words speak to our rational mind. Music goes straight to our emotions. Listening to music is a no-nonsense way to affect our mood. It can be uplifting, empowering or harmonizing, whatever it is that we want and need. On my speaker lately. To get my writing going in the morning Ólafur Arlands: Living Room Songs […]

Think Small

admin — Fri, 13 Oct 2017 05:00:36 +0000

Considering the amount of time we spend asking advice from a friend, family member, expert – or Google – it is sometimes funny how eager we are to ignore ourselves: our inner wisdom, intuition, that which we already know. There is nothing wrong in pondering things with someone else, but as no one can really […]

Inspiration

“Inspiration is there all the time. For everyone whose mind is not clouded over with thoughts, whether they realize it or not… Inspiration is pervasive but not a power. It is a peaceful thing. It is a consolation even to plants and animals.” – Agnes Martin I went to see the new SF Moma. […]

Clarify

admin — Thu, 20 Apr 2017 09:00:29 +0000

Through living our daily life, we create delicious new dreams every day. Some of them are tiny, preference is maybe a better word than dream. And some of them are big. When we experience something unwanted, we gain a clearer understanding of what we do want. This is how life evolves all the time – […]
