The 'Cabin in a Loft' of... Terri and Adam
I have seen images of Terri and Adams 'Cabin in a loft' floating around the internet for a while but only today have I found a link to their Tumblr account to see a full set of images.
This beautiful studio apartment in Brooklyn was converted by the Chiaozza shop owners into a treehouse-esque cabin in a loft for only $2,000. The apartment features furniture made by the couple, rugs from travels to Morocco and copious amounts of houseplants in crazy ass planters... dreamy!

St Werbergs City Farm Cafe, Bristol

St Werbergs City Farm Cafe |
This is a bit of an impromptu post so I am afraid the photos are not the best quality (had trouble getting them off instagram) but I thought it was about time I showed off some of the beautiful places I visit in my home city Bristol, England..... this morning I was at St Werbergs cafe and the inspiration hit me to snap a few photos of my favorite cafe...
St Werbergs Farm cafe is one of my all time favorites. St Werbergs City Farm cafe is a 5 minute walk from my house and is accessible by a small cycle path that passes through allotments and a nature walk. It is such a beautiful walk that feels like being in the countryside, even through it is in the center of one of Englands big cities.
The cafe is a hobbit-esque building with handmade windows, countertops and tables, a newly added wood burning stove, hanging plants, batik print upholstery, hanging plants, lovely staff and the most beautiful shaggy dog.... The food is super awesome as well, with many of the fresh ingredients coming from the farm and its lands, and served in St Werbergs Local Steve Carter's own pottery!!
Not only is the Cafe pretty awesome but over the road is the City Farm itself, I take Alex there now but have been going there for 10 years.... I have a bit of a thing for Goats... I would love one :)

A Book Worms Dream : Reading Spaces....
Turquoise sitting room with Library |
Reading Area |
English Decoration by Ben Pentreath |
Reading Room |
All the images I have chosen are so eclectic, so full of 'stuff' and character. To me they are warm and cosy an womb like. They remind me of a comment I had once that said
"I like all the rooms you post, but I could never be a bohemian.....there is so much stuff.....
how do you dust?"

Ball Pendant Lights....
What could be more perfect? |

Rattan Pendant light |
The Eames House |
Rice lamp |
Ball Pendant Lights.... I love them!
Every room in my house (but my entrance hall) has one! Large paper (Rice) or rattan balls grace every ceiling.... Even little Alex has a Habitiat MoonBuzz Light.
To me they resemble the Moon in the night sky, and I just love their simplicity... the fact that they are ridiculously cheap is just a bonus!
What do you recon? Love them or remind you of being a Student?
