++ FATA MORGANA: IBIZA ++

When you think of Ibiza you think of crazy nights out, amazing sunsets,

crystal clear water and MOROCCAN INSPIRED VILLAS?

This amazing house is situated on a private hilltop position surrounded by pine woods and boasting breathtaking views.

It is filled with arched doorways, colonnades, deep cushioned

window seats, fretted woodwork and latticed shutters.

Decor includes antique brass and oriental rugs on marble floors add touches of colour, while dappled light and water, pools and fountains give a cool relaxed vibe... AKA HEAVEN.

With 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms and limitless amenities the villa is priced from EUR8890 per week in low season and EUR19,445 per week in the high season.

We can definitely see ourselves lying by that pool... cocktail in hand!

This place is unquestionably a must add to your bucket list :)

:: These are ACE ::

Dubbed by the New York Times as "the country's most original hotel"

ACE HOTELS are popping up all over the US.

Currently these hotels can be found in

Portland, Seattle, New York, Palm Springs and Los Angeles.

The aesthetic is a mixture of industrial, romantic, vintage, eclectic, rustic....

pretty much all of the decor styles we live and swear by //

Aztec rugs, industrial lighting, brass tapware, trunk tables, and

macrame hanging from the ceiling are a few features you can expect to see

around these 'hipster' hotels...

"Ace Hotel reinvents hospitality to make something fresh, energized and human. We embrace and reimagine classic buildings and interesting opportunities, creating a sense of history and place while reinterpreting those details for a sense of modern bohemia that marries the pragmatic with the romantic."

And they even have an effing amazing blog!

What hotel has a blog?

Pretty damn cool.

Dutch love: Daphna Laurens //

Daphna Laurens is an Eindhoven design studio set up by

Daphna Isaacs & Laurens Manders, two recent graduates from the Design Academy Eindhoven and already DMY Award winners in 2011.

They recently showcased some of their designs at Dutch Design Week and as soon as we spotted them we had to search for more! Their designs are sleek, modern and we love the way they contrast solid coloured frames with refined timber and fabric.

We hope you love their stuff as much as we do...

you know how much we love dutch interior design!

::: Infatuated with Terrain :::

It’s time to reveal our latest website / brand infatuation ...
Terrain.

Now before you get excited unfortunately they don’t ship outside the US… I know! But don’t say we didn’t warn you early! We check the shipping information almost once a week hoping that Australian shipping rates will magically appear! Alas, they haven’t as yet… so for now it’s just a window shop, but rest assure you won’t regret spending hours on this site even if you can’t splurge on it… it is just perfection. Here are a few of our favourites…
