How have you lived long in the house?
We have lived here for 10 years. This is the first time I've said aloud - 10 years! This is our first home together. It is also the house I lived longest in my life.
What attracted you to it?
When we were looking for our first home together, we wanted something manageable sizewise - not too big, but spacious enough for us to grow in it. We also loved the location :. We are so close to the sea, which is really important for us

what was it like when you first moved in?
Very cream! Many cream carpet and walls washed sponge. He stayed like that for a while. We did not have a huge budget, so we made slowly, in stages.
Over time, we have completely changed the function of some rooms. We removed the walls, built of new sheets and we also converted the loft used, gaining a small office space, a bathroom and a guest bedroom / playroom.

do you have a design rule that you live by?
Not really. If I want something, I go for it. I like different styles of design and aesthetics. Color is very important to me. I love the color so much, although most of our walls are white - I love the light it brings to a space. Have a white base also means that we can move things around and introduce different colors through accessories if we want a little change.
What makes you most happy at home?
Sitting around our table after a busy day, eat and chat. Meals are crazy, but a great chance to reconnect.

What is your next big decorating project?
Our room - it really needs a facelift. It was the source of our living room, but since changing the floorplan, it has become our master bedroom. It still feels a little spacious sitting well.
What is your biggest DIY success?
We have a cabin in the garden, designed by the four of us and built by my husband. It has lots of toys and cushions inside, a slide and a sand table below. It is everything I wanted when I was a child. If I had time, I'd love to sit in all day and read.

What is your favorite place in the house and why?
This is a tricky question: since we renovated, I have many favorite places. I should probably say the dining table next to the large sliding door to the garden. It is so nice to sit half and half and watch the kids play.

What do you think is the next big trend of domestic and why?
I think perhaps people will try to buy quality parts, rather than disposable. I would buy a couple of unique pieces, well-made furniture this year that will stand the test of time and be heirlooms my kids can enjoy for years to come.

what is the first thing you do when you get up in the morning?
Grunt, moan and drag me to the kitchen. The sun rises on the back of our house and flooded the kitchen and dining room with beautiful morning light, even a dull day. It wakes me.
what you like to do on Sunday afternoon?
Honestly, I like to lie on the sofa in a large mass of legs and arms. We all snuggle and watch a movie under a large, comfortable mattress - happiness

do you have a mantra that you live by?
Be grateful. I know how lucky I am to have the life that I do, I say and recognize. If someone does something for me, no matter how small, I thank them.

did you could not live without?
Oh, many things, but if we talk about something else - an object or product - so I guess, annoyingly, my iPhone. He's with me all the time; so it is very convenient to take photos and stay in touch with all my favorite people.
