The loom will always remind me of my first ever visit to Sweden at the tender age of 8. We stayed at my friend’s summer cottage by a lake in the countryside and they had a huge loom in the corner of the room (actually, looking back, it probably wasn’t that big – I was just small!) which her Mother used to make Swedish rag rugs. I’ve been curious about weaving ever since. It’s one of the oldest human crafts and practised all over the world. This home and studio in Argentina belongs to textile entrepreneur Carolina Sanchis. Carolina specialises in modern weaves for the home in the form of very cool cushions, slippers, wall hanging, bags, belts and even items for the office – sold through her brand Carolita Home. Look closely and you’ll spot many of her creations in her beautiful home which she shares with her architect partner, Santiago. Enjoy the tour! 

How beautiful is this place? I’d move in tomorrow! 

The textiles totally make the space – adding a warm, cosy and decorative touch. 

Is there anything that caught your eye? 

Check out Carolina’s online shop here (even if it’s in Spanish you can still get a glimpse of some of the items she makes) and her inspiring instagram feed here. 

Curious about other Maker Spaces? I love:

I took a quick look through the archives to see if I’ve featured any Argentinian homes in the past, and this was actually the first (of many, I hope!)! However, I have shown some inspiration from South America – including a Brazilian beach home and a remote beach escape in Uruguay. It makes me realise that I have a lot of traveling to do once all of this blows over! How about you? 

Have a lovely day friends!
