Wohnzimmer


the other night, i got excited(again) for the furnishing of a home with jachen. whilst i was emailing him(back and forth while he was at work),  i decided to "plan" upcoming ikea purchases for our home. we have a house in switzerland and will need to make some furnishing changes and additions. ikea is really the only home furnishing store which will be practical in price....switzerland forgot to have targets, department stores, pottery barns, crate and barrels etc...but luckily i love ikea. i went on the suisse ikea website and found these great pieces.
lamps- in LOVE with both those lamps. the green table lamp, duh and the tall lamp shades texture is so great which you have to look closely to see in that picture. i am all about mismatching lamps.
rugs- which one? if both are there which should i chose?
sofa- in love with that grey sofa. its the perfect color and size. sure hope its in stock or i WILL wait. can't wait to throw some pillows on there.
armchairs- im not IN LOVE with these two, but for what the website shows are my options these are the best two. i like the second one better, but that green isnt quite right and that was the only color i liked for it. if the first green chair color came in the second chair shape, we would have a deal.
coffee table- i love the simple shape, color and the legs on it. i will check thrift stores there first to make sure i don't miss out on a cool coffee table

so far this is what i will hunt down at ikea when we go the weekend we get back after the wedding. plans could change and we might not like any of these pieces in person or we might like something else better that we find, but for now it is fun to start looking and thinking about it.

oh, and yes you can mix brown and black together...and grey.

i really love the first lamp. And I like the boldness of the stripe rug, it would just pop.
