BEDROOM In contrast
to the vivid blues used
elsewhere, the couple’s
bedroom is painted in
muted Farrow & Ball
‘Skylight Blue’. Pale pink
accents in the pillows and
decor items add warmth.
The bathroom was fitted with a bathtub and
heating was laid under a terrazzo floor.
“Terrazzo reminds me of hot summers in
Lebanon, where I vacationed with my family
as a child,” says Margrete. “It was difficult to
find exactly the same style and, after much
searching, we came across some leftovers at the
local demolition yard. Now I think of childhood
memories each time I enter the room.”EAST MEETS NORTH
Margrete is inspired by Lebanese style, which
favours lots of colour and flowers, but prefers to
combine it with Nordic simplicity.
“I am drawn both to the stylish and to the
colourful,” she says. “I like it when opposites
meet because it is simply more exciting to
live with.” •Find more Scandi style inspiration onyhg | 51H
