Let's Go Visit: Nina In Vorm; Nina Van De Goor

Swoon! We have the ultimate eye pleasure of visiting one of the most creative and stylish ladies on the web! Her name in Nina van De Goor and her home is filled with charm, color, and beauty within every nook and cranny. Not only is her home fabulous but she also creates some of the most fantastic art and ceramics that would adorn any ones home! To view more of Ninas home visit her blog hereor her flickr set! Ok, so let’s head on over:

Who: Nina van De Goor
Occupation: Humanities Student & Ceramicist
Home Location: Den Bosch, a city in the south of the Netherlands
Website: Nina In Vorm
 
Style of Home: Eclectic, mix & match, a bit mid-century modern, a bit IKEA and a lot of art & craft.
 
Favorite Rooms/Spots & Why:
The living room is a great room, it’s light and colorful and filled with all my vintage treasures and collections, such as my vintage ceramics collection. I also really like my studio, a wonderful place where I can work on all my creative projects. It’s so luxurious to have a room just for myself that I can call ‘my studio’, I never could have guessed I would have one ten years ago (when I was 16). It’s one of the good things of growing up I guess: the possibility to create a studio just for you!

Design/decor challenges when it came to decorating: the fact that it’s a rented apartment, which limits the changes you can make and how much you want to invest in the place. Also, the bedrooms aren’t very big, so we have to be careful not to put too many furniture in them in order to keep the rooms spacious. That’s also my personal challenge: I have so many decorating ideas and so many types of furniture, art and vintage treasures that I love, that it’s hard to limit myself…

thrift shops and auction websites, IKEA for basics, etsy, and shops from independent designers/artists.

Adriana Barra {mi adore}

Monday, May 19th, 2008

One of the best in the industry, Adriana Barra is one of my absolute favorite Fashion Designers. I am not quite sure what the best words are to describe her style, but the closest thing that I can think of is Tropical-Gypsy-Bohemian. I know I know, but those are the words that come to mind when I gaze at the tropical patterns and textile designs that she uses for her long bohemian sun-dresses and “dashiki” inspired blouses. her use of pattern is incredible and the color is so rich and vibrant. I would love to be able to visit her stores in Sao Paulo & Rio De Janeiro Brazil, which is decorated quite lovely and seems to change with each year. You should definitely take a tour of her website, because it is filled with lovely imagery and gorgeous pattern, as well as a lot of hidden treasure links to click around on! Who are some of your favorite fashion designers?
