Plants are my thing, but I also really enjoy flowers. But not nearly as much as my flower friend Elodie from Madame Love. Earlier this summer we picked the most beautiful Café au Lait Dahlias in her second home here in the Oise. The other day we had lunch at a brand new café in Read article…

Maison Chateau Rouge in Paris
Mix a graphic interior, tropical plants and creative ideas with a welcoming athmosphere and you win me over. When I saw some first glimpses of the newly opened Maison Château Rouge on l'Instant Parisien's instagram, I knew I had to visit this cheerful shop as soon as possible. Youssouf, co-founder of Maison Château Rouge and Read article…
Wild & the Moon in Paris
The other day I passed by this window on my way between two client meetings in Paris. Especially now that we're working on #urbanjunglebook I see plants everywhere. So I couldn't not go in here and take a look at all those plants. I was pleasantly surprised: this café and restaurant looks really nice: old Read article…
Au revoir Paris, hei Helsinki!
Two weeks ago I walked past Le Carillon and Le Petit Cambodge for the first time since the Paris attacks. I never really felt the urge to see the places where such tragic events took place, with my own eyes. Somehow I ignored that they put up colorful buntings shortly after the attacks. On the Read article…
Mama Petula plant concept store in Paris
Happy Valentine's Day! No hearts or roses here today, but big heaps of green love! Yesterday I was invited by Caroline to the opening of her (long-awaited) plant concept store Mama Petula in Paris. Last summer she was given the opportunity to rent a small house on the site of a former hospital in the Read article…
Klin d’oeil boutique & galerie in Paris
Once I found out talented duo heju was working on the new Klin d'oeil boutique & gallery in Paris, I couldn't wait to see it. I really love what they did at the courtyard of Les Petits Hauts (I blogged about that here), and the sneak peeks on Instagram with this fabulous Sudbury Yellow by Read article…
Villa Savoye by Le Corbusier
Visiting plant nurseries makes me really happy, but visiting amazing architectural masterpieces is my second favorite. This Villa Savoye in Poissy, just outside Paris, was on my want-to-visit-list for a while and finally I got to go! At several places stood "leftover" Tolix chairs and stools from the dedicated Tolix exhibition at the Villa Savoy Read article…
Des Petits Hauts courtyard in Paris by HeJu
A little warning: this will be a super pastel post. Not that there's anything wrong with pastels, but just so you know. Ever since the creative duo behind heju revealed their design for the courtyard of Parisian boutique Des Petits Hauts, I wanted to see it in person. So when I was in the neighborhood Read article…
Hotel Joke in Paris
It's one of the questions I get very often: Judith do you know a nice hotel in Paris? Usually I sleep in my own bed when I'm in Paris… obviously 😉 But for my birthday, Astotel invited me for a night in their brand new hotel in the 9ᵗʰ arrondissement: l'Hôtel Joke. I had a Read article…
Rue Crémieux in Paris
Paris isn't nearly as colorful as Berlin or London, but we do have our own Notting Hill-like street! La Rue Crémieux is one of the most Instagrammed streets in Paris and it was fun to see it in person in stead of on millions of Instagram shots. It's actually a very very regular and small Read article…
