Hello lovelies! How's the weekend been? Ours ended with a big happy sigh after a string of fun events, including Marshall's birthday celebration yesterday. In fact we all took the day off and spent a lovely day together instead of scooting off to work and school. Life is for living isn't it!?! :)

As promised, I have drawn the two winners of the ISAK 'ABC Character' posters that were so generously sponsored by Kindergallery. And without further ado I'd like to congratulate Bron of 'Maxabella Loves' AND Felicity of 'Gifts of Serendipity'.
You won girls!! Please drop me an email with your address details so that I can organize for the delivery of your posters. xx

Today I also wanted to share a Swedish real estate agent with a difference, namely 'Fantastic Frank'.
Styled with an open-ended 'story' in mind, rather than a fully furnished statement...
This is a modern, creative and insightful agency that believes that "..A home is more than the size & dimension between the walls. Our senses are more affected by the light, colours, sounds and textures than by a designer chair."
They also believe that people feel their best when they are inspired, and when they feel that there is a purpouse to what surrounds them. Then and only then, can a home start to exude a tangible character that allows us to connect and build a meaningful relationship with it. So true..!
With this philosophy in mind they style their listings in a way that allows the character of the property to come to life with the aim to "reach the few who 'love' it, rather than the large group who only 'like' it..". I love this bold, confident and to-the-point approach!

On that note.. I am off to bed! Have a great start to the new week. I'll be back in a few days with some exciting news..!

Oh wonderful read Charlotta! I have always said that design is good to a point and then imperfections, character and the collections of the lives within the walls are what is really on display :) I "LOVE" it!! XO, Kelly

Happy Belated Birthday Mr. Ward!!
And congratulations to the lucky winners!
Very clever real estate agency. And gorgeous images. Reminds me of that agency in "Skåne" with a similar approach. Very poetic and personal. And a lot of focus on liveable spaces.
Warm hugs to you we are off to the beach!

What beautiful images they really have a great concept on things
what a refreshing philosophy!! I can't believe you are moving home! How exciting! For good or temporary? It's beautiful here in Sweden right now. 25 degrees and the sun is shining even at this time...!
There are several interesting Swedish real estate web sites with staged apartments. Staging has never been successful in Finland, even though most people can't imagine how the empty home would look furnished. I have sold several apartments without real estate; two of my own + some friends and relatives homes and noted how much even light staging + good photos help the sales.
Waiting for your exciting news, Charlotta, even thoug I guess I already know what you mean...
Love this crazy idea! I wonder how successful his system is in selling homes?? But it makes a wonderful change from the ridiculously over-styled open inspections of the majority of houses. They all look the same - YUK! These ones have humour instead.
beautiful spaces, Charlotta! hope you're having a great week, darling! xo
love the work of Fantastic Frank. hugs to you, Charlotta
cool content my friend . i will share this to my friend in facebook
