This is my last post of the week my dear, because tomorrow, I'm off blogging and on a full time mom mode. We're going to be busy with play dates, sleepovers, pizza night, catching up on school gossips and recess drama and other very urgent matters. So today's post is about kids corners. Because when you think of it, everything else is just not as important. See you back here on Monday my dear! Xo, Si-

More inspiring home offices
I am finally redesigning and putting some order in my home office {Merci, Ikea!}, so any picture of a clean, clutter free desk ends up on my moodboard this week. I realize that having a minimal work space is extremely hard to achieve, because without any color, a workspace is cold and impersonal, and too much color ends up looking messy and cluttered. These desks have it all : minimal mood, yet a dash of color gives them a homy and feminine feel. Love these, a whole lot...

+++++ moodboard
I am usually not a fan of geometrical shapes in interior design, but I'll make an exception to this statement when it comes to crosses. Why is it that crosses - non religious ones I mean - add such a soft side and inviting character to a space? Do you use crosses in your own space?

Minimal moods
Loving these minimal moods. Can you tell I'm organizing the "summer" mess around the house left by the kids and in desperate need for minimal, mess free visual treats? I mean our house here in the US is a lot bigger than the one we had in France and we did not acquire new furniture, in order to keep a minimal feel, but with two pre-teens in the house, how do you manage 'minimal'? Anyone out there? Storage, storage [hidden if possible] et storage encore if you ask me! That's the secret for a mess free minimal chic house!
