Old Farmhouse in Spain

Good morning dear readers! Let's celebrate it is Friday at last by visiting this summer house located on the island of Mallorca. With stunning views all around this modern rustic style farmhouse has been restored preserving its original structure.


Stone walls and old Spanish terracotta roof tiles for the exterior.


A stone path flanked by rose bushes and other plants leads to the house.




Modern lines for the sanded wooden furniture in the dining area of the porch.


Bamboo lining between wooden beams for this ceiling.


The living room flows into another sitting area that used to be an open porch. Window panes were placed in the archways.








The kitchen and dining room share the same area.








Sitting area in the master bedroom.


A soft palette, linen curtains and natural wood in the master bedroom.

Wishing you all a happy weekend. See you tomorrow, sweeties!

Summer House in Costa Brava

Located in the well-known holiday region of Costa Brava in Spain, this summer house belongs to Beatriz Domingo, owner of a clothing and accessories firm. She used a variety of recovered and vintage pieces and even some of her own design to decorate her home. Come and tour this modern rustic home with me today. I'd love to hear what you think of it!



Inviting sitting and dining area in the porch under a cane roof. Rustic terracotta tile flooring adds warmth.


The neutral background is ideal to add splashes of colour. Full length linen curtains brush the terracotta floor. Two tables were arranged side by side to make a large coffee table.


Retro style lamp on vintage coffee side table.


The same rectangular terracotta tiles of the floor were used for the top of the bench to sit next to the fireplace. The particular placing of the two small windows resemble pictures hanging on the wall. Love the simple vintage birdcage with a candle inside.


Open floor plan brings the dining room, sitting area and kitchen together in one luminous space. Country style rustic dining room table surrounded by chairs in two different styles.


Close up of the white and pink table setting.


The dining room and kitchen open onto a terrace. Glazed green tiles were used for the counter tops and backsplash.




Exposed beams and original cane lining instead of paint for the ceiling in the master bedroom.




Antique iron day bed, window style mirror, small white painted trumeau and the rustic pillows for this inviting lounging area.

Summer House on Paros

This house is located near the town of Naoussa on the north of the Greek island of Paros in the Greek Cyclades. An Austrian couple, Martin and Karin finally got the opportunity to buy the house they had rented for several years. They took eight years to transform it from a traditional farmhouse with stables into a comfortable holiday house.

Materials found locally were used for the renovation.


The small windows were kept. In the dining room a spoon lamp adds a merry touch.


The dining area as seen from above.


Karin's portrait hangs above the window. Red painted concrete floor, open shelves and baskets in the rustic kitchen.




Martin poses imitating his wife's portrait in the kitchen.


In the master bedroom the night table and base of the bed are made of concrete.





Mediterranean style bathroom.


This terrace is right outside the master bedroom.


Stunning views from the outside barbecue area.


Shady spot to have dinner outside.

Renovated Farmhouse in Girona

Good morning dears. This renovated farmhouse is in Girona, a city northeast of Catalonia, in Spain. On a white background, details of tribal art, Chinese antiques or African rugs adorn every room.



Walls are made of stone. A rustic table, long wooden bench and wicker chairs make up a dining space in the porch.


Teak loungers by the pool.



White cotton upholstered sofas, antique Majorcan chairs, a Portuguese coffee table, an Indonesian chest, antique Chinese vases and a zebra skin rug make up the eclectic living room.


Concrete and pebble flooring in the library and kitchen for a rustic look. The table is antique French.


Austere dining room with simple lines. Metal chairs were slipcovered to add warmth.


Concrete and pebble flooring and a long stone countertop in the kitchen. Those simple light bulbs hanging above the table look nice but I wonder whether you have to shade your eyes while eating here.


Ethnic style in the master bedroom where the beams have been painted white. The rug is from Morocco.


Sitting area upstairs.


One end of the master bathroom


Claw foot bathtub and separate shower at the side.


On the terrace an antique iron table with simple folding chairs by an olive tree.
