a wild sofa appears
more projects in progress I've failed to document, but:
cat orb approves.
My family are chair people. I've had this dumb IKEA Pöang chair for decades now, and a rotating supporting cast of others that keep breaking. (Another story there.) So for the last year I've had just a single chair in the middle of the room (the only room), and the bed in the far corner acting as an ertsatz couch.
In retrospect it's a little ridiculous to think I've gone this long with a single armchair and a twin bed as my only furniture, but I think I've got two justifications. First is that I've still been moving around things and unpacking/repacking as I work on projects, and it was hard to visualize what the space deserves. Second is that I'm exceedingly picky, and once you drop a couple grand on a piece, pay to have it delivered, and cajole a family member into dragging it up a flight of stairs, you better damn like it. Not like returning an Amazon order.
Back in February I pilgrimaged to Palm Springs for Modernism Week, and poked around the monthly Vintage Market. One vendor was selling a beautiful Adrian Pearsall style platform sofa, along with a Poul Jensen-style Z-sofa.
And the price was unbeatable. Until I saw the shipping cost to up here, which came to an additional almost 50%.
And realistically, both are a bit small. A slightly generous loveseat, or a very cozy three-seater. Perfect for my old 500SF apartment (if I didn't have all those chairs). I don't like sitting close to people. I have plenty of room, but not for a sectional.
Locally and online I wasn't seeing anything I was jazzed about for how much things were. Lots of tufts and skirts, bollard arms, pale cream upholstery. Truthfully cleanability is a major priority in, well, all of my decisions. I wanted something on legs I could vacuum under, and cushions I can remove and clean. Not really a fan of leather, being vegetarian. And vinyl is just horrible.
Oh, and I don't like sinking in to a couch. It's all about back angle and height. I like things low and upright. Hence my affinity for the platform sofas.
A few weeks ago we stopped in Kasala, a store that has the distinction of being the only furniture store in Pike Place Market, and additionally the only one I know of with a real local warehouse in-city, partly to poke around, partly to rest after a long day at the market. It was perfect. The color, the wood accent, the steel legs! A little bulky for my tasteâI don't care for armrestsâbut could easily work with a mid-mod or min-mod style.
As I promised the salesperson, I'd go home, have a glass of wine or three, and make a decision. And I accidentally bought three. It wasn't the wine, it was the website freezing up repeatedly, I swear.
The next day I somehow convinced my mother to help, as we frantically rented a van from Home Depot, ran over to the warehouse about a block away, dropped it off across town, and returned the vehicle in the 90-minute window before extra charges kicked in. $15 for DIY delivery was a heck of a deal compared to $200 to have to dumped in the driveway.
I bought that light years ago and never found a good place for it
As for the bed: I finally ditched my deflated twin I've had since college for a full-size memory foam, selected after literally 4 hours of flopping around the IKEA showroom models. By that point my brain had turned to mush, and rather than choosing my dream danish modern bed frame, I just grabbed a basic steel platform. At least its not going to collapse on me in the middle of the night again. Despite the extra room, the cat still sleeps draped across my neck.

Bring Nature Indoors With Textile Prints + Curtains
Hello and happy Friday, letâs fill our imaginations today with some lovely ideas for the home with botanical curtains and textile wall hangings. I loved reading about how artist, Pernille Folcarelli in Denmark, uses both to, âcreate a soft home style and a calm, harmonious atmosphere.â
I personally love the first image shown above, handmade by Pernilli, because it speaks to my personal aesthetic so very closely. Everything about it, from the rosy wall color to the calmness in the display, and of course the wall hanging, tugs at my heart. The books on the cart, the ceramics, dried flowers, itâs very feminine, calm, and modern.
Aside from looking beautiful, itâs also important to note that textiles reduce disturbing room acoustics or that âhollowâ echo that so many minimalist rooms have.
I know this isnât a trend in the states, but did you know that many northern Europeans have ditched curtains for simple blinds or shades, or nothing at all? I vote to please BRING THE CURTAINS BACK! I love how they both frame a window and absorb sound so a room loses that annoying echo which is so extremely cold. Also, I love how, in the evening, windows are no longer big black boxes - you can close the drapes and enjoy your cozy, warm nest.
Above is another example of warm and beauty, which speaks to my heart as well. I love the vintage-inspired lamp and the printed drapes because they give this otherwise bare room a bit of a soul. I also like seeing patterns. For very long now, pattern has been outed a bit here in northern Europe - passed by for solids, tactile things like faux fur, velvet, âteddy bearâ chairs, leather, etc.
In America and the UK pattern seems to be forever a thing - they LOVE their patterns. It isnât as common here these days to see printed drapes in the homes of local Instagram influencers or even in your favorite design books and magazines. Everything is very solid and tactile, which is super lovely, but when I see this room above I definitely vote YES on prints done right.
The Dutch are starting to move prints into the interiors world again, and the Danish are giving it a go, so letâs see where we end up.
I gladly welcome back patterns BUT in a very controlled fashion, as shown above. The example below is a bolder version of the one above that maybe would appeal to someone who really LOVES pattern and color combined - someone BOLD! Both examples are just lovely.
BUT on the flipside, I canât imagine living in the 80s or 90s again when everything was printed including wall-to-wall carpet. Do you recall those days? Hereâs a fun thing to try so please google it: do you remember the floral sofa from the Golden Girlsâ home? WE HAD THAT SOFA in our home for 10 years. Yes, really. My mother was a massive decorator, totally full-blown into it. She had all the latest and loved color. We had macrame, dried flowers, gold embellished everything, ficus fig-trees, pampas grass, and rattan chairs long before they came back in vogue in 2018.
I still remember when our Golden Girls apricot sofa moved in - heavily patterned, I knew the 80s had arrived and my mother was giddy over it. And if youâre wondering what our sofa looked like before the Golden Girls sofa, it was a super plush lime green velvet sofa (70s) which I was perfectly happy with, combined with gold metallic bamboo-patterned wallpaper and Chinese hand-painted porcelain in the cabinet with red dragons painted all over it. In the corner, a large vase filled with very tall pampas grass. In the windows, macrame planted hanging from hooks filled with plants.
This view below may appeal to the monochromatic fans out there, or fans of the handmade minimalist modern movement where everything is very sculptural and rooms are extraordinarily edited. The patterned wall hanging offers something more than a mirror or framed art.
I like what Pernille, the maker behind these patterned textiles, has to say about our innate connection to nature,
âIn an unpredictable and uncertain world, we turn to nature. It brings calmness and grounding. Studies show that we relax and feel less stressed when looking at nature's motives. This also applies to images and imprints of plants and nature. But having lots of nature outside is not a given for everyone. Therefore, plant motifs on the walls are a unique opportunity to surround ourselves with botany and green colors. Like an indoor garden, which requires neither watering nor care.â
I want to wish you a wonderful weekend, thank you for stopping by my blog to visit me today!
Love,
Holly

Bitter and Sick - Chapter One
Hey guys! Itâs been years since Iâve written anything and decided to stretch those writers muscles and give it a swing!
âRating: M
âGravity Falls/Rick and Morty
~Diagnosed with terminal brain cancer, Stanford Pines is forced to reflect on past regrets and experiences that bring him back to one person. A narcissistic sociopath who saved his life~
~Chapter One~
âŠ
âBrain Cancer, Stanford? Are you shittinâ me?â
There was a cold silence in the air, the usual sound of cash registers opening and noisy tourists were drowned out by the hoarse tone in Stanley Pineâs voice. He received a few uncomfortable stares, but chose to ignore the attention.
Stanford Pines fidgeted, lifting a six fingered hand to anxiously rub the back of his neck. He used the other to nudge up the frames of his glasses. This isnât how heâd planned it, but heâd already dug his own grave. âStanley, Can we maybe talk somewhere a little more private?â he choked, bloodshot eyes shifting to the audience that filled the gift shop.
Stanâs eyes narrowed, and he heaved a sigh, popping his collar as they made their way to the back room. He locked frightened eyes with Wendy as they passed, trusting she would be able to handle the rush on her own.
Ford sluggishly followed, hands shaking violently as he closed the office door behind them. He shuffled his way across the shagged carpet, collapsing on the danish sectional couch in the corner of the room. He held his head in the palm of his hands, holding back tears that were long overdue.
âHow long?â
Ford rubbed the bridge of his nose with his fingertips to relieve a mild migraine, looking up to find his brother rummaging through one of the cabinets in the opposite side of the room. Stan had pulled out a vintage bottle of whiskey and a couple of shot glasses from the dusty storage cabinet.
He was so overwhelmed by the sudden news that he hadnât taken time to really bother with the details. Honestly heâd never expected this to happen, not that anyone ever does. Teeth clenched, Ford rested his weary palms on weak knees. â A year at the mostâŠâ
âFuck!â Stan seethed, nearly dropping the bottle as he finished pouring a glass. Brown eyes flickered in Fordâs direction, fatigued with age.
Ford flinched, avoiding Stanâs gaze and staring mindlessly at his hands. âWhat happened to us, Stanley?â
His brothers features began to soften, wrinkled cheekbones curling to a faint smile. He chuckled, and made his way across the room. âWe got oldâŠâ
Ford looked up at the sound of ice hitting glass, and chuckled as Stan towered over him with the whiskey offering. He accepted, six calloused fingers curling around the cool corners. He downed the amber liquid without hesitation, welcoming the burn that accompanied it.
âGood, ainât it?â Stan collapsed next to him, downing his glass and releasing a mild grunt at the taste. He stretched his arms over the back of the sofa, the hand with the glass leaning lazily to the side. âWe canât tell the kidsâŠâ
Ford eyes flickered as he came back to reality and turned to his brother, finger tapping his own glass idly. âDo you think thatâs wise? You saw Wendy, you know sheâs-â
â-Iâll talk to herâŠâ Stan interrupted, âTheyâve been through enough hell.â
âIâm not just going to give up, Stanley. You know that, right?â
Ford stared at his brother with half lidded eyes. Heâd been awake for almost three days without sleep, and the toll it was taking on him was tremendous. He thought distracting his mind with his research would alleviate the pain, but he was becoming weaker every day.
Stanâs reply was sincere as he placed a large hand at the base of his brotherâs back. âI know you wonât, PoindexterâŠâ
Ford chuckled at the nickname, slowly lifting himself from the sofaâs embrace. Stan began to rise to help him, but was halted by a gentle hand to his chest. Ford carefully dropped the empty glass on the desk, making his way to the doorway.
âFordâŠâ
Stan paused as his brother tilted his head to the side, hand resting on the door handle.
ââŠWeâre gonna be ok. Youâre gonna be okâŠâ
Fordâs eyes were shadowed beneath the frames of his glasses, but Stan could feel the sadness radiating from him.
âOf course, StanleyâŠâ, he lied. âI meanâŠWhatâs the worst that could happen?â
The door shut quiety behind him, casting a dark shadow across the dimly lit room. Leaving Stan to ponder in his own dark thoughts. He lifted a thumb to his eyes, wiping a single tear with the corner.
YeahâŠwhatâs the worst that could happen?
âŠ
âGreat Uncle Ford! Whatâs this?â Mabel Pines let out a squeal of excitement, nearly falling in an old trunk as she reached for the old book beneath.
Ford let out a heavy cough as the object brought clouds of dust with it, gingerly taking the book from her hands as he recovered, bringing it into the light. Two small five and six fingered hand prints were visibly faded on the cover, two âSâsâ lazily scrawled across them in both print and Stanfordâs signature cursive handwriting.
âI havenât seen this in ages, â Ford muttered, carefully lifting the cover to reveal pages of vintage photos and Staneyâs macaroni art.
Mabel curled up to her Uncleâs side, intently observing as he flipped through pages of his past.
âIs that Grandpa Shermy?â her eyes settled on a small spectacled child with a much smaller jaw line, a visual cowlick curling around his forehead.
Ford smirked and let out a low chuckle, âThatâs your Grandpa alright, always pranking Stanl-â
âBREAKFAST!! WHO WANTS STANCAKES!!?â
Mabelâs attention shifted and she leapt from Fordâs lap, tugging on the sleeve of his sweater. âCome on, Great Uncle Ford! Letâs eat!â
Ford gave a half hearted smile, âIâll be right behind you. I just need a minute, Pumpkinâ.
Her small hand slid from his, not looking back as she made for the attic stairs.
Ford set the scrap book back down in the trunk, his hands hitting another mysterious object hidden beneath the dusty corners. He snatched it, brushing off the remaining dust to reveal the cover. A familiar handprint embossed on the front with construction paper, and a large #4 scribbled on the front with a marker.
His heart sank, taking in the pathetic replica before him. He licked the corner of his dust covered finger, slipping through the worn pages. Halfway he paused, settling on a memory he had kept in the back of his brilliant mind for decades. One he never thought heâd have to revisit, and one he swore to put behind him.
In the corner scribbled in a pen, quite sloppily he added, was a message from an old friendâŠ
Thanks for the shitty memories, Six-Fingers - R
âŠ
âHey, Sixer! How about you show us those sick moves you keep boasting about?!â
Ford let out the hybrid of a snort, hiccup, and laugh as he took another shot. Eyes glazed over from the heavy amount of drugs and alcohol swirling throughout his system. He was in no way a light weight, despite avoiding the college parties outside his dorm every night.
âNo thanks Gearheeeâaaad,â he slurred, popping the cap off another beer. Unable to make out any more words out of annoyance from shouting over the high music volumes. He stammered his way past the small crowds in front of him, avoiding a cute blonde and making a note to swindle her out of her phone number by the end of the night.
Ford nearly tripped over Squachyâs tail, eliciting a loud hiss and several unintelligable slurs that mostly consisted of variations of the word âSquanchâ. He lifted his hand to apologize, but was more focused on getting as far from the noise as possible.
Reaching the sliding doors to the balcony, he released a sigh, stepping out into the cold air and wiping a few beads of sweat from his forehead. He was unexpectedly greeted by the sound of fingers strumming melodic chords against a guitar.
âSurprised to see you hiding out here, Rickâ, Ford rasped, his gruff voice shot from overuse.
Rick Sanchez shrugged, a blunt hanging loosely from his lips as he played a few notes on his acoustic guitar. He paused to run lanky fingers over his ripped jeans, trying to warm them in the night chill. âYou fuckinâ kidding me? Shittiest party Iâve ever been toâŠâ
Ford bit his lip, tapping a finger against his beer. âYou sure youâre ok?â
âFuck you, Sixerâ. The younger man continued to strum, not even caring to look up when Ford nealt down in front of him..
âDoes this offering please you?â Ford drunkenly exclaimed, holding the beer at Rickâs face.
Rick heaved a sigh and snatched it away, âOk nerdâŠwhat do you want from me?â
âThank youâŠâ
Rick nearly spat his drink from all ends as he took a sip, but swallowed hard. Bringing the blunt back to his lips and inhaling. He took in Fordâs features as he sat down indian style, early signs of wrinkles curved his smile.
âYouâre fucking ancientâŠâ, Rick muttered, taking in the grey hairs that were starting to peek out from chestnut locks.
âYouâre one to talkâ, Ford retorted, a wicked drunk smile crossing his face. It was true Ford had 9 years on him, but Rick had already reached the âGrandpaâ look in his late 40s, hair already silver and forehead creased with aging. He guessed it was the years of alcohol and drugs, but had no interest in investigating further.
âI mean it, Rick. Thank YouâŠâ
The younger man strummed a few more notes, âYou say that again, and I swear iâll beat your ass into another dimensionâŠâ
âOh, I believe youâ.
âYouâre hammered,â Rick mocked, placing the guitar next to him and extending his hand to offer the blunt. Fordâs nose twisted in disgust, raising a hand to decline. âSuit yourselfâ.
Rick inhaled again, pulling his leather jacket tighter around him. âYou want to know the truth?â
Ford blinked, pushing the bridge of his glasses up his nose. In the few months theyâd known each other, heâd never known Rick to offer an explanation for any of his odd sporadic behavior. He was honest, brutally so, but not open about himself.
âThe truth is rarely pure, and never simpleâ.
Rick rose an eyebrow, eyes narrowing at Fordâs poetic words. He took another puff, and flicked the blunt away lazily.
âOscar WildeâŠâ
âFuckinâ Nerd.â
Ford smiled, pulling a small notebook from behind his jeans, âMind if I write this down? This a rare occasion. You being an open book, and all.â
Rick scowled, hugging his knees. âIâm trusting you with this, SixerâŠno notes in that pansy ass journal of yours.â
His eyes widened, placing the book down on the ground without question. âIs it really that important to you?â
Rick had never looked so tense, not as long as heâd known him. Whatever it was, it had him seriously fragile in the head. Ford watched as he parted his lips to speak,ignoring the muffled sounds of the crowd enjoying shots in the next room.
âHave you ever been in love?â
He choked the words when they came out, like it was poison, running a lanky hand through silver hair. He avoided the older manâs gaze, not entirely comfortable with the conversation.
Ford didnât even hesitate, running a hand over his shoulder in deep thought, tracing his fingers over a hidden tattoo that contained the painful answer to the question. Memories returned of a muse, of a promise that was shattered in an instant. âYes.â
Rick looked his way, lips pursed in curiosity, but he didnât care enough to pry. âFuck loveâŠâ
Ford chuckled, grabbing the beer that Rick had set down between them. He downed the rest, wiping the corner of his lip with his flannel sleeve.
âI second thatâŠâ
They sat there in silence, a dark sky full of stars to entertain their thoughts. Rick strumming a few more harmonious chords while Ford rose a finger to sketch the numerous constellations.
It was at that moment, inebriated and high as a kite, that Rick made a silent vow. He would get Ford home, even if he had to tear apart the multiverse to do so.

The owners of this workers cottage provided a brief to Flack Studio to create a âhaven in the heart of Fitzroy.â It was to be designed for longevity, and to remain functional and appealing well into the homeownersâ retirement.
Now with adult children, the owners no longer needed space for backyard cricket, cubby house building or dress-up corners. This shift in use allowed Flack Studio to reconsider the four-bedroom house, and redesign the space with a master bedroom and guest room, creating a master quarter with ensuite, walk-in robe and powder-room. The renovation also introduced a scullery and bar for entertaining. Very grown-up indeed!
The aesthetic of the home respects the workerâs cottage history, and âfeels classically eclectic, with a hint of Flack.â When the studio talked to the clients about their favourite spaces in Melbourne, they cited the bar Marion as somewhere they would like to emulate in their own home. They love entertaining, and âwanted a space reminiscent of the neighbouring Fitzroy bars.â
David and his team responsed with trademark âFlack flairâ, injecting lux stone finishes, Â brass details, and an eclectic yet refined edit of colour, texture and pattern. One particular standout detail is the custom blue joinery in the walk-in robe, in contrast to the restraint of the master bathroom. An interiors twist around every corner!
The Flack team emphasise how much of a local project this renovation was. Not only was it inspired by a beloved Fitzroy bar, but the home is located right around the corner from Flack Studio HQ. They describe how this proximity made the âweekly site visit a walk in the park â literally!â The result is a project close to the designerâs hearts, in more ways than one.

Hotel Review: The Hoxton, Amsterdam
Hoxton Facade
For a hip hotel in the heart of the city, look no further than the Hoxton. The central location on the exclusive Herengracht (Gentlemenâs Canal) is perfect whether youâve come to Amsterdam for culture, concept stores, quirky cafĂ©s or culinary delights.
The hotel is a conversion of five historic canal houses, home of a mayor of Amsterdam in the 17th century. But while the façade harks back to the Dutch Golden Age, the interior is a far cry from old.
Hoxton lounge
Instead of a traditional hotel lobby youâre greeted by a lounge/bar area buzzing with young professionals clicking away on their Macs over a glass of Perrier or fashion conscious Amsterdammers sinking into battered leather sofas over large shots of caffeine, Double Dutch cocktails or local draft beer.
This is very much an all-day destination, with as many or more locals than residents. DĂ©cor is retro: faded rugs on timber floors, distressed brickwork and a colourful mix of vintage armchairs. Up on the Mezzanine itâs a bit quieter with better canal views and heavy tomes to get stuck into (encyclopaedias, Balzac and other classics). Check-in is delightfully informal.
Staff are all young and super friendly, making you feel at home from the minute you arrive. They will explain that you are free to fill your mini bar with drinks sold at reception at supermarket prices. This hotel has lots of nice touches. One unusual perk is free telephone calls worldwide for an hour for each day you are there.
Who For
Young professionals and couples wanting a lively vibe and something a bit different.
Facilities
Itâs first come first served for the smart VanMoof guest bikes and since there are only four donât be surprised if they have already been grabbed. Guests have use of a gym around the corner. Thereâs a local DJ in the bar Thursday-Sunday evenings.
Accommodation
The 111 guest rooms make smart use of tight spaces. Choose from Shoebox (12 sq metres), Cosy, Roomy and Concept.
Hoxton bedroom
Expect a combination of luxury (super-comfy beds and high quality linen), utilitarian (50s Danish desks and metal hanger instead of a wardrobe) and quirky (60s alarm clocks, Roberts radio, mustard retro phones).
Hoxton desk
There are also canal-side guest rooms. Metro tiled bathrooms are far from spacious but function well with good rain showers, thick towels and fast hairdryers. Elegant glasses are provided for wine, there is chilled water and fresh milk in the fridge, a kettle, Lyons coffee bags, Clipper teas and a bar of cocoa chocolate (all complimentary).
Food and Drink
Hang the brown âbrekkie bagâ on the hook outside your door at night and start the day with the fresh orange juice, banana and honey-nut granola with creamy Greek yoghourt.
If you want something more substantial to start the day head downstairs to Lottiâs for poached eggs, Dutch smoked salmon and sourdough toast. The white-tiled cafĂ©/grill is open from early morning until late at night and serves all day for burgers, bitterballen, hand-crafted cheeses, meat platter or salads â all freshly prepared.
The dinner menu is more extensive, featuring a fish dish fresh from the market, tender hanger or aged ribeye steak and a choice of veggie dishes.
Is Wifi available?
Yes, fast and free, throughout the hotel.
Room rates
Room rates vary hugely according to size and view: Shoebox start at âŹ199, Cosy âŹ200-499, Roomy âŹ219-499. But you can get cheaper deals tonline. Book well in advance and donât expect last-minute bargains at weekends.
Whatâs nearby?
The Hoxton is so central you can walk (or cycle) to all the main attractions. You are in the Negen Straatjes (Nine Streets) quarter, a shoppersâ delight with specialist boutiques and some excellent restaurants; Anne Frankâs House is less than half a mile away, the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum about a mile.
