PETRA BINDEL X VIRGINIE DENNY

I first saw this stunning home in Elle Decoration Japan while I was killing time in Kinokuniya bookstore obsessing over EVeRyThiNG. I went home to Google its owner, Virginie Denny, and found that it was shot and styled for Elle Decoration UK a few years ago by interiors dream team Petra Bindel and Emma Persson Lagerberg (you can see Lagerberg's home lensed by Bindel here.) Denny's abode is full of intriguing art, gorgeous furniture and oodles of beautiful light...and it's in Paris, of course! All photos Petra Bindel.

I came across the gorgeous home of Emma Persson Lagerberg (originally featured back in April by Swedish Elle Interiors) in the latest issue of the UK's Elle Decoration. I love it for more than just its monochromatic-but-wonderfully-textured bones. The attention to detail evident in the home's mish-mashed decor is so inspiring. Christmas lights strung from antlers, a disco ball in the living room, curiosités lining the window sill (the ceramic doll head, dinosaur figurine and miniature model skeleton really pop for me), not to mention the diverse selection of art. The home has a sense of humor and seems surprisingly warm and child-friendly. Speaking of: their kids are so cute! Nautical stripes? A bowler hAt? #dying
