A Glimpse Inside My Sitting Room
Sharing another angle of my home today – perhaps one you haven’t seen for a while: our sitting room. This week we had the pleasure of inviting this Danish beauty into our home: The classic MG501 Cuba Chair designed by Morten Gøttler. It was originally on loan from Carl Hansen & Søn for a photoshoot, but I completely fell in love with this new variant – with its paper cord seat and back and beautiful wooden legs. Since it’s foldable, I thought it would be perfect for our tiny cabin in the future too! Here are a few pics from my shoot – and other details from the room. Roll on the weekend, I want to creep into that corner and  hide from the cold!  
A Glimpse Inside My Sitting Room
I’m still on the neutrals in my sitting room – I probably should add a little more colour, but, well, you know me! After many sofa cover changes, I often to go back to this linen version* from Bemz! The table is vintage (you can source a similar bench on Etsy here*) and the rug is by the small family run Austrian business Barfuss (more info and pics here!)
Funnily enough, when we first moved in I thought about painting the stairs white. They were really shiny and orange at the time (see the before pictures of my home) – but now the wood has settled and I’m so happy with them just the way they are. 
I have to admit, the area under the stairs is a bit of a dumping ground – we’ve only just moved the garden cushions into storage – but they were there for 4 months, collecting dust! I had to double check for and clear away other miscallaneas items before the shoot (fidget toys, rogue socks, homework…. there’s no need to what you might find under there!).

In the picture above and below you can see more of a close-up of the beautiful handwoven paper cord back and seat of the Cuba Chair. I love that age old craftsmanship techniques continue to thrive in the Danish furniture industry, it makes the pieces feel that more special!
My beloved mug is by British ceramicist Josie Swift who runs CLÆ ceramics studio. I’m pretty sure coffee doesn’t taste quite the same in any other mug! Do you have a favourite cup too?

I hope you enjoyed this glimpse of our sitting room right – and like the new addition as much as I do! 
If anyone’s looking for me, I’ll be right here with my feet up, reading a book (although if Per asks, I’ve been grafting away ALL day, obvs!).
I’ll be back tomorrow with the final post of the week – and I have to say, the home tour I have for you is SO inspiring! Perfect for the weekend 🙂
Wishing you a lovely day friends, see you tomorrow!
