Autumn

She was creeping slowly...And here she is-autumn.
And with her time for warm socks, thicks sweaters, hot tea and red wine..
Her colors haunt me everywhere.
These I found today in my kitchen.

Have nice weekend!

Stoves

Beautiful old stoves.
Very durable versatile machine for the heating and preparing meals.

The main advantage of these stoves is their independence from external energy sources expensive.
I believe in old truth that fire in the furnace means happiness at home:)
Hanging in the kitchen apples necklaces, mushrooms, garlic and onion braids, dried aromatic herbs-all these memories of childhood when we were in grandma's kitchen can come alive again...
The new version

Stockholm

No one can convince me that there is another city where you can find so many interesting cafes, restaurants and pubs.Design in Stockholm is everywhere!
Vigårda, is a fast food barbeque restaurant run by one of Sweden's top chefs, Melker Andersson. It's stylish, tasty, cheap and mostly organic and locally produced.
Beautifully exposed products.
I wish they had more of such a fast food in my country..

Old houses

Do you like old houses?I really do.
At the weekend i was able to visit some of the really old ones.From the late nineteenth and early twentieth century.
Things inside give the impression that people still live there.
Interior with amazing details.
Furnitures captivate beautiful colors and interesting crafts.

Bokja story

Hoda Baroudi and Maria Hibri in 2000 formed a company in Beirut with unlimited imagination;)
They did it out of love. For the history, culture and the crafts.
Give new life old, broken furnitures by giving them new clothes, the poetry of color and patterns .
Beautiful, rich, composed without fear it will be too much, too colorful, too wonderfully.
Interesting  story and these products are the result of it.
Have a look!

Books
In the age of e-readers, still the most fashionable design element.
Do not hide them, do not close them in the closet but expose in the most prominent place!
