Tenderness and madness.
First: madness.
I don't know if I want to laugh or cry:
"An individual's sexual orientation-like a person's race or gender- does not constitute a legitimate basis upon which to deny or withhold legal rights."
California Supreme Court ruling.
No? seriously? We needed a supreme court ruling to figure that out? How terribly embarrassing.
Secnd: Tenderness, because God knows this world needs more of that, here are pictures of an interior in ??? (Help! Can't read the language) I fell in love with today via tante tia.
I believe this is the blogger's house, if someone speaking the language could confirm that, it would be great.
I love the simplicity, the clean, bright feel of it, and at the same time the coziness. Interesting how they chose to paint the floor white and keep the rest of the wood work dark. I think it's striking and so personal.
And notice how few pieces there are, and how simple, and how functional.
Perfect.
Hi. The interior is in their "new" 150 year old barn.

Hi!
This is the barn of my famliys summerhouse. It is 150 years old,located in the rough nature of the west coast of Norway, and is attached to the small dollshouse-like farmhouse.
We did just do the interior after the barn has for years being used as a storage place for old stuff.... Now it is a hideway and recreation place for me and my husband and our three boys. Thanks for the compliments on the interior! I love simplicity, nostalgia and things with a history and soul.
All the best Tante Tia
