Scandinavian Elegance Meets Mid Century Modern

January 6, 2016 · In: Interior Design

Scandinavian Elegance :: House of Valentina
It was not so long ago that the trend was for women to be the sole decorators of the home, and for many, that meant that home interiors mostly reflected her taste.  These days, though, we’ve got the guys to consider which is why we are seeing more and more interiors that have blended styles.  The internet and all the access we have to interior design globally hasn’t hurt either.

Personally, I love it, though at times it feels like my husband’s style and mine are in competition with one another.  My style tends to be a bit more minimalistic, traditional, and tailored, while Jack loves ALL things mid century, vintage, and modern, which is exactly why I got so excited when I saw the home of Joanna Laven and her husband, David.  Their home is a beautiful blend of Scandinavian elegance and Mid Century Modern, two styles that you might not imagine would really go together.  Joanna is a props and interiors stylist and her portfolio is well worth a peek if you have time after drooling over her dream worthy home.

I read the most amazing article about how BLACK is a grounding color, not just for a room but for us! I just felt like my life just made that much more sense!! I felt like screaming yeeessssss!!! (I did it inside! Ok, I let out a little yeah, baby!!) but seriously. BLACK. The one color that never goes out of style, is always chic, feels fabulous to wear & live it. God. It’s just SO good!!! 

Love you all and hope you are having the best day everrr! XxV

29 years ago… these were the days I used to dream 29 years ago… these were the days I used to dream of! 

Today is yesterday’s dream! (Or a lot of yesterdays ago!) haha I used to play this song and dream of all the days we’d have together and the life we’d make, ones filled with a home, a family, little mornings out, drives through quaint downtown streets, antiques shopping. It was never a flashy dream. A simple one that felt like the most beautiful thing I could imagine if I closed my eyes and dreamed up my wildest fantasies!
