The new Louis Vuitton store on New Bond Street , London

The new Louis Vuitton store opened this week on New Bond Street. It might come second in size to its Paris flagship, but it's definitely second to none what comes to visual merchandising. Louis Vuitton never fails in his creative displays.

Every few days a new egg is hatched revealing a new shoe, watch or accessory. How fabulous is that!




I love this floor to ceiling display of vintage luggages

"Scandinavia Today"

I am Scandinavian, and naturally grew up with Scandinavian Design, and just appreciate the simple beauty of it. This image is very "Scandinavia Today". It is
modern, minimalistic. Lots of natural wood tones, white and gray. I love the industrial feel of this space, the all natural materials.
I think this is what my dream dining space looks like, but it will never happen, as I married more traditional Spaniard ;-D

Inside "Modern Family" Homes

This half an hour mocumentary/sitcom is one of my favorite comedy shows on TV along with "Better of Ted", "Arrested Development" and "30 Rock". What I love about this show, is that every single character is hilarious and interesting.

I could not be any happier that tonight is the premier of Modern Family’s second season

The Los Angeles Home section recently featured photos and a sneak peak inside the “ever-evolving family homes” of this Emmy winning Show.

Richard Berg, production designer for the show, told the LA Times that “There are three multigenerational, multicultural families. You need to be able to tell whose house you are in at a glance.”

Jay and Gloria’s home




You can see Jay in the modern sophisticated style. He seems like the type who does not like cluttering his home with lot of things, but when he sees something he likes, the price tag is not an issue. The bright accent colors and animal prints represent Gloria's South American personality.

Mitchell and Cameron's home




The living Space is definitely very them, but the nursery is what best represents this couples whimsical side. This couple is my favorite on the show, and that nursery mural cracks me up every time!

Claire and Phil's home




This home is the most conservative home out of the tree. There is color and there is texture, but it is all very classic and traditional.

This modern design features wide but narrow burners (measuring 50 to 90cm) hidden within a stone setting. With up to 20 hours of burn time and low consumption (just 0.5 liters per hour), the Bio-oh! bioethanol fireplace is an urban essential.

Urban Kitchen Design by Schiffini

I am a huge fan of Italian Schiffini Kitchens. Today, Kitchen is a part of entertainment scene, a room that people gather more often (or at least as often) than in living room, and I think it should be designed keeping that in mind.
I love the artful incorporation of Italian elegance with practical elements, the chic yet workable surfaces. There is plenty of room for food preparation, and for guests to gather around it.






I really love this one with the horizontal fireplace and oversize, red funky fish art hanging from the ceiling.












and I am such a fan of mixing traditional and modern
