This post and it’s content has been kept wrapped up in bubble wrap and stored safely away in David’s cupboard. We didn’t want to get it out until we had moved in to the flat and now it takes pride of place on the living room wall. We’re talking about this Waves print. It’s…

Last Wednesday we were invited to the launch of REMIX2 – a partnership with Mini Moderns and the Southbank Centre. The design duo are back again, this time taking residency at the Southbank Centre Shop on Festival Terrace for the whole of September. We got to preview the exclusive range and let us tell you,…
Read MoreGetting hooked
With the turning of the seasons comes that annoying point where you have to dust off those winter coats and start thinking about layering up… depressing isn’t it! As we’re moving in together next week, we did notice how many coats and jackets we have between us and it got us thinking; where are we…
Read MoreDon’t be scared to be a hoarder
Whilst packing up ready for the move we came across a clattering bag which we completely forgot about and it turns out that it was a year ago that we had bought, packaged them up and placed them in to hibernation ready for there awakening in the new flat. We spotted this Scandi coffee set…
Read MorePerfect plates
David loves to cook, Mark loves to host, we both love to drink, so it’s only a matter of time before we start having plenty of dinner parties. We’ve already thought of the perfect cutlery now we need the perfect plates! At the moment we have some random dinner plates which are Mark’s and David’s…
Read MorePosh loos
Sorry for the lack of posting, we’ve been away in Glasgow followed by a brief trip to Portsmouth and now we’re finally back in London. Today has been spent continuing to pack up David’s flat ready for the move on Saturday. Everything is pretty much all ready to go now – the plan from here…
Read MoreGoing potty
On to the exciting world of saucepans! Our kitchen is going to be most certainly in need of some essentials and pots and pans are up there on our list. Annoyingly however whilst having a look and doing some research we’ve come to discover that it can get quite costly. Not as costly as casserole…
Read MoreLast night a DJ saved our lives…
Music is such a big part of our lives that we want to somehow incorporate this into our interiors! Now, we don’t actually have a record player, but Mark does have a lot of vinyl that he’s picked up over the years. Together we have pretty eclectic music taste and sometimes we do disagree, but…
Read MoreHanging some statements
Our new pad is adorned with lovely high shelves which is perfect for us as it means hassle free wall hangings. The hallway specifically has long shelving on both sides of the wall which stretches from near the front of the hall right to the kitchen. We already have some lovely prints and photographs to…
Read MoreWash your hands
There are plenty of lovely touches you can make to your bathroom to ‘jazz’ it up. Shower curtains can become a piece of hanging art, a change of toilet seat can add humour and towels and bathmats can completely change the mood and feel. With this mind, we’re looking to bathroom sets; toothbrush holders, soap…
Read MoreAlmost Period Living…
As you’ve probably seen, our new flat is going to come with a few ‘period-esque’ features. We want to make the most of these and ensure our interior design works with them and not against them! We spotted these handy hints from Achica and we’re so glad those clever people have put together their ‘do’s…
Read MoreLong live freecycling!
En route back from a much needed power nap on Wandsworth Common we were deep in flat planning thoughts when we spotted a lonely lamp with a little disclaimer… Now, it’s not the most desirable of shades, however, David weirdly was mentioning how we needed to get a floor lamp for the new flat so…
Read MoreSigned, sealed, delivered
On a sunny Saturday morning, we went to the estate agents to sort some admin out for the new flat. On the way we had to make a pit stop at Tooting Bec’s new addition Imperial Durbar for a much needed iced latte and pastry following a rather boozy Friday night with friends. The Imperial…
Read MoreJuice time
Some more pieces purchased for the flat. This time… cups! We found these glass cups in T.K Maxx and thought they were really cute. Branded with different logos including “absolutely pure milk” and “juice time”, and at a bargain price of £1.49 each (we brought 6 in total), we couldn’t resist their charm. Having already…
Read MoreHandi Skandi
Now that we’ve secured our flat (still bouncing off the walls) we’re compiling a list of things we need which we can slowly tick off one by one, from pots and pans to towels and plates. One of the things on the list are tea towels, a simple kitchen textile which easily gets overlooked. There…
