Mintgrønn er ikke en farge jeg ofte ser blir brukt i interiør. Men som disse bildene av kjøkken viser; fargen gir opplevelsen av en frisk kjølig bris i huset. Og jeg får assosiasjoner til solfylte sommerdager. Som du ser, kan du tilføre fargen på mange måter. På skap, møbler, fliser eller som min favoritt, tilføre kjøkkenet et mintgrønt SMEG kjøleskap! Ganske kult!
Mint green is not a color I often see used in interior, but like this kitchen images show, it sure brings a fresh breeze of cool inside the home. A color often more cold than warm, stills brings back memories of sunny summer days that just have past. At least for me. As you can see the color can be incorporated in many ways. On cabinets, furnitures, tiles or like my favorite a mint green SMEG fridge! Pretty cool!

Jeg har sans for sorte kjøkken og i det siste har jeg funnet interiørbilder der sort er i kombinasjon med grønt. Resultatet er et veldig friskt uttrykk. Og som du ser, kan fargen grønn flettes inn på flere måter. Vegg, detaljer, skapfronter og er du vågal nok tør du kanskje ha grønt gulv. Mitt favorittbilde er uten tvil det første fra Living Etc. Det grønne gulvet løfter kjøkkenet til et nytt nivå og Eames stolene setter prikken over i’en! Trenger du mer kjøkken inspirasjon? Titt her!
I have a soft spot for black kitchens, and lately I have found interior pictures where black is the combination with green. The result is a very fresh look. And as you can see the color green can be integrated in a number of ways. On walls, details, cabinet fronts and if you are bold enough you might dare to have it on the floor. My favorite picture is the first image from Living Etc. The green kitchen floor adds another dimension of cool and the classic Eames chairs is the cherry on the cake. Need more kitchen inspiration? Look here!

Jimmy Schönning, en svensk interiør stylist, har innredet sitt loft med en personlig og lun atmosfære på Söder i Stockholm. Han har utnyttet hver kvadratmeter på en funksjonell måte, og det er som loftet forteller en historie med alle gjenstander som er plassert rundt i leiligheten. Den svarte veggen og mezzaninen skaper en dybde i rommet. Fargesammensetningen og de ulike materialvalgene sammen med Jimmy Schönnings personlige saker gir stuen et eksotisk preg, langt ifra den typisk nordiske stilen. En detaljrik loftsleilighet, se bare hvordan han har laget plass til den ene gamle jernkassen på hjul på det nederste bildet.
Jimmy Schönning, a swedish interior stylist, have created his own attic studio with an exotic and soft atmosphere located at Söder in Stockholm. Every inch of space is cleverly and functionally planned and it is like the loft tells a story with all his personal and decorative accessories. The black wall and the mezzanine give the room greater volume. The color composition and choice of materials together with his personal decor the room gives an exotic feeling, far from the typical nordic style. This is an apartment full of little details, just look at the old iron box on wheel that fit perfectly under one of the build-in closets at the bottom picture.

Skandiabanken fremstår som et nytt og fresht konsept med deres nye lokale i Kungsgatan i Stockholm. Har tidligere vist et spennende og nytenkende banklokale i Paris og det er gøy at Skandinavia er raske med å følge opp denne banktrenden. Designet til skandiabanken skiller seg ut med sitt uformelle uttrykk. Banker er ofte stive og kjedelige i utformingen, og ikke minst nøytrale. Det har skandiabanken valgt å se bort ifra og designerne BVD har fått leke seg med kontraster i materialer og fargebruk. Det grønne sammen med det fine treverket gir et typisk nordisk uttrykk. Ikke minst er lyssettingen veldig spennende.
Skandiabanken stands out as a new and fresh concept with their new location on Kungsgatan in Stockholm. A couple of months ago I showed you an exciting and innovative banking interior from Paris, and it is very fun to see that Scandinavia is quick to follow up on this trend within banking interior. The design is distinguished by its casual look. Banks are often stiff and boring in their interior design, and not at least neutral. This has SkandiaBanken chosen to ignore and the designers from BVD was given a great amount of freedom and the result looks fantastic. They have played with contrasts in materials and colors . The green combined with the nordic wood gives a typical Scandinavian look. And look at the the lighting, it is used in a very innovative and creative way.
Se så oppfriskende det blir med en sterk grønn kulør i interiøret. Disse rommene gir meg en gryende vårfølelse, som er ganske deilig å få midt på vinteren når det er kaldt og ekkelt ute. Farger påvirker oss, og denne grønnfargen stråler energi og glede, samtidig som den er rogivende. Veldig lekker bruk av fargeinnslag.
Look how refreshing it is with a touch of green in the interior. These rooms gives me a great feeling of early spring, which is quite nice to get in the middle of winter when it’s cold and dark outside. Colors affect us, and this green color gives us energy and joy, and is at the same time calming.

Med utgangspunkt i vår egen gode restaurant Pascal på Nobels Fredssenter har jeg funnet andre restaurant interiør som ligner. En blir til og med anklaget for plagiat! Inspirerende og delikate er de alle tre, med sine vinkler og farger. Klikk på posten for å se flere bilder.
