When me and my boyfriend moved in together in our first house, I decided to paint the walls of our new living room aubergine purple. You can imagine my boyfriend was not very pleased with the result (we don’t live in that house any more: our walls are white at the moment). Luckily that kind of experimental fase is over and now I am carefully considering how to decorate our new house that we will hopefully move in to before the summer really starts in the Netherlands.

For quite a while now I have really loved blue tones in interiors. Because our new house has a large living room, I am thinking of painting a part of it in a beautiful blue shade. Whether it is going to be light or a bit on the darker side, I still have to decide but I will do so when we have moved into our new house. The floor of our living room will have the most amazing parquet: wide planks of light wood with a warm hue to it.

I believe a grey sofa will match with everything so I hope we will finally buy a great one this year for our house. I have set my eyes on the Aikon sofa from Design on Stock, Rope from Normann Copenhagen, Connect from Muuto and the sofa I saw in the Dutch store Loods 5. What to choose? I don’t know! I probably comes down to comfort and price.

It is not that easy to find the perfect coffee table. I am still contemplating if we should buy one with a marble tabletop (white or black?) or if we should go for one from wood or one with a simple black tabletop. Glass is also an option. Above some of my favorites at the moment.
