second-hand finds

Oh, I found these pieces at Használt nyugati áruk boltja few weeks ago. Been wishing to visit the place ever since! These furniture look sad at the moment, but imagine the potentional after a lick of paint and re-upholtery!

Living room - Mission possible!

I've bookmarked webpages and clipped magazines of designs which I admire since forever. Knowing fully that most of the designs don't suit the layout of the flat and our lifestyle. That said, I'm so happy that I found something which I can "copy" while perusing "101 Living rooms", a Hungarian publication:)
The corner brown wall with round-shaped mirrors are interesting features :)
The lamp is what i'm loving for this design . Oh, the low cabinet would look good under our windows as well !


The hanging boxes are practical and should be easy to find , I hope :)

I adore not only the industrial finish of this house but also the no-frill lighting - smart!

Kika promotions

I wish that we can hop by Kika to check out their latest promotional items...unfortunately, the nearest one is located in Budapest . Anyhow, what caught my attention...



I doubt this would be comfortable, but i'm liking the colour :)
Simple and functional. What i like most about this book case is
the flexibility to set-it-up according to the space available.

Living room II - Sofa and coffee table arrived

Our sofa and coffee table were finally delivered last friday! Did you notice I have this magenta colour accent going on? I think the colour goes well with the dark brown floor /table / curtain, and white furnishing / wall. Oh...we inherited the wall paper. Since we haven't any budget to re-do the wall , it will stay the same for time being . Or until i gather the courage to remove the wall paper myself ;)

As you can see the room is still kind of bare. Here is an impression of what I intend to add on in the near future...

1) An art-canvas / mirror for wall above the sofa and tv unit.
I haven't found any mirror that I like at the moment but this digital canvas from portobello art looks good!

2) Rexbo by Ikea on the right.
The sofa took up quite a lot of space. I think the rexbo would suit the room without over-crowding the space.

3) Bookcase on the left.
Either Farmer range by Baumax-x (which will be painted white) , Ikea's Hensvik or Expedit , depending on the remaining space

4) Carpet under the coffee table.
From my hubby's to-buy list. He likes to keep his feet warm at all time.

Colour your world

This layout is nearest to our flat's. I especially like the dining / entertaining corner.
