Plant-loving coffeelovers, I found THE place to go… if you are in Barcelona. This coffee place is called Satan's Coffee Corner and I stumbled upon the address when looking for the beautiful Matagalán terracotta pots. Matagalán's designer Caroline styled the entire coffee place with her creations. Don't you love how the terracotta pots and plants Read article…

Jardí Botànic in Valencia
With the current COP21 conference in full swing here in Paris, I can only find one reason why the climate change would be a "good" idea. It would make it possible to plant my cactus plants and palm trees directly in our garden instead of keeping them in pots. I would be able to grow Read article…
Dulce de Leche in Valencia
Coming home after a three and a half week break meant it was back-to-business straight away. It felt like we hit the ground running: new projects, new clients, a weekend in a cabin on the water, and a bathroom that needed our attention too. Knowing that I have so many sun-drowned photos and stories that Read article…

The flower shops here in Nogent have a very artificial choice of flowers and bouquets that contain 80% fill-up greenery. I Read article…

Giant plant pots with #myelho
It will take another decade until I'll be able to hang my hammock in my own home-grown palm trees. But this summer they grew bigger and bigger. Their roots grew against the walls and bottom of their pots. Time for new bigger plant pots! I put them in these giant synthetic plant pots from Elho. Read article…
Etairnity Airplants design + giveaway
This summer I received a package from Etairnity with my very first airplants! You know I do have lots of cacti, agaves, succulents, palm trees and such, but somehow I never adopted any airplants. I expected them to be all tropical and difficult to take care of, but actually it's rather the opposite! Airplants, Tillandsia Read article…
