White Cabana- To Go

August 11, 2010 | 7 Commentaries

OAS collection wallpapers drape the inside of this delightful White Cabana on wheels.

While researching for the wallpaper post appearing next week I found these lovely examples of wallpaper as the backdrop to various interiors of this oval white motor home trailer.

Wouldn’t you love a white cabana to go?

P.S. Thank you to Jordana here at White Cabana for taking me on this wonderful white blogging trip: I’ll go anywhere with you in this white white world!

This would be the most perfectly cozy place to spend a rainy day (with a good book of course!).

Marimekko World

Cityscape and people watching on your duvet by Marimekko

What can I say? I have Marimekko graphics on the mind this week and I couldn’t help featuring some of the latest collection.

The Finnish company continues to build on their renowned use of bold graphics and cheerful colours hailing back to the brand’s conception in the swirl of mid-century design aesthetic.

Despite my rainbow tendencies, I fell for today’s white and black accessories for the home. My favourite print: the urban city scene outlines that are like a flash in time capturing the essence of movement with a few sketches.
