NEW House Doctor For Spring!

Want to catch a glimpse of what's on trend for Spring/Summer 2014 here in Europe? My lovely friend and neighbor, Tinna, just rang my bell to give me some design magazines and to let me know that the new House Doctor catalog is now available (here). This is such an exciting time of the year, when companies roll out their newest collections! As their rep for Germany, Austria and Switzerland, Tinna is always on the front lines when it comes to trends and style. I love having her as a my friend and neighbor. I've been a big House Doctor fan for the past five years - their product offering get stronger and stronger with each new collection. I have several House Doctor pieces in my home and now my husband has been converted - he loves their style and has a gorgeous black wooden locker and a dresser with a shelf from them in his office. It's a great company for both men and women who love a stylish yet practical interior since so many pieces work nicely for couples sharing a space. Would you like a peek at some of my favorites from their new collection? I took some notes as I went along that you can read below on each image. housedoctor12

One thing that surprised me the most about this collection is that it's in MY NEW APARTMENT COLOR SCHEME! My kitchen walls are blue (like the color shown above) with white tile work and black accents, my entryway is a peachy-pink like the color shown above, we have copper lighting in the hallway, the baby's room is mint, black, goldenrod, blue and gray, my workroom is black, gray, white, blue, peachy-pink and mint with cooper and neon orange accents - it's actually pretty cool to know that the design I've been putting together for months now (we painted end of November/early December), is the same scheme as this gorgeous catalog and I didn't even know it until today! Some told me that I was crazy for painting my kitchen blue ("But Holly blue is for baby rooms and bathrooms!") but I really wanted to rebel and try it and I'm so glad that I did. (Our kitchen is Borrowed Light from Farrow & Ball.) And my entry is a pinky peach and some thought it was a bit out there. But I love it. And I'm glad I went for it. I can't wait to show you when we move in! Here are some more gorgeous photos from the new House Doctor catalog for S/S 2014, complete with some of my notes...
