New kitchen love

It will come as no surprise to regular readers that I have a passion for traditional style kitchens with just a dash of the modern ... the new breed of English country style kitchens in particular. Well today I can say that I have a new kitchen love, a new old-style kitchen love that is and it's not English. No it's the Swedish kitchen design firm Kitchen & Beyond. I thought I'd share a couple of my favourites but you can see more on their website.

The Steam Hotel

What was once an 18 story steam power plant in Västerås, Sweden is now an absolutely stunning hotel complete with 227 rooms, an 800m2 spa, rooftop restaurant (and another on the main floor), outdoor terrace with pool and gorgeous views of Lake Mälaren. I just got back from a vacation south but holy smokes I am ready to re-pack my bags and head here! Thank you Thomas for the link to these photos of the Steam Hotel via Femina

Beautiful details in an apartment in Stockholm

This apartment in Stockholm is a total dream. Spacious (especially the master bathroom!), to-die-for moldings, massive baseboards, tall windows, a sleek modern kitchen (love the mirrored hood fan!), black painted hardwood floors, an incredible art collection....and no longer for sale. Whoever scooped this up is a lucky sonofab*tch! Via Lagerlings.

Spaces of note

I was perusing sköna hem this morning and came across these spaces that caught my eye. Awesomeness in the form of a fat Pug, some stacks of tied up old weathered books (I want to do this in my living room), a cozy living room and an eclectic kitchen (love the plaster treatment on the wall and sewing machine table base).

A grey and white loft apartment for sale in Stockholm

I have a thing for grey, and so I fell in love with this 119 m² loft apartment in Östermalm, Stockholm as soon as I spotted it. White walls make a beautiful backdrop for grey here with subtle accents in colours via plants, the beautiful rattan pendant and the dining chairs. Lovely! For sale via Lagerlings.
