This home from <a href="http://www.skonahem.com/inspirerande-hem/hemreportage/skont-stadsgront/" target="_blank">Sköna Hem</a> was one of my favorite examples. I love the black and white stripes on the Marimekko bedding next to the bold walls. And of course, that painted floor!

Their portfolio is filled with great spaces, including this beachy San Carlos home. I love the neutral backdrop and how the blue accents make it such a cheerful, comfortable, family-friendly space. I am really loving that computer workstation in the kitchen...I have a feeling I'd be sitting there all the time!
