3D VISUALS FOR PROPERTY
3D VISUALS FOR PROPERTY
3D visuals for property is a tool more and more real-estate agents are using these days to help sell properties. Especially when these properties are still in the building fase. Buyers often have difficulty seeing the potential and what a space can finally look like. That’s where VKV Visuals (me) comes in. Creating appealing visuals with realistic interior design plans, that can actually be…

ANIMAL PRINTS DONE RIGHT
ANIMAL PRINTS DONE RIGHT
Animal prints in interior design can be a tricky one. If done wrong, animal prints can make a room look tacky and kitsch. The trick is to use these prints sparingly. By giving that old antique armchair a new upholstery in an animal print, it will go from boring to a unique, eye-catching piece.

ULTRA VIOLET: Pantone's Color of the Year 2018
ULTRA VIOLET: Pantone’s Color of the Year 2018
ULTRA VIOLET
Ultra Violet has been chosen as the Color of the Year 2018 by Pantone. And since this is my first post in 2018, I thought it a fitting subject. If you ask me Ultra Violet is a bit of a déja-vu. I have already written some posts about Violet and Aubergine (same color family) here and here. I wonder how often we will see Ultra Violet in interiors next year. It is such a tough color to…

WORN LEATHER
Worn leather furniture, usually in tan colors, add a touch of warmth in these mostly monochrome interiors. All these interiors have a minimal, Scandinavian vibe going on, which I love. Quirky art and tastefully arranged bookcases add a personal touch. Materials used are mostly wood, steel, glass and worn leather.

BACHELOR PADS
Bachelor pads are something else completely. Full of sturdy, masculine vintage tan and black leathers, steel, bare brick, concretes and dark colors, they ooze cool and a nonchalant messyness. A vintage Mid Century piece here, punchbags, weights or even a Harvey careless hung, placed or parked somewhere else, mancave style.

DESIGN ICONS: PIERRE JEANNERET
DESIGN ICONS: PIERRE JEANNERET
Pierre Jeanneret has been forgotten for a long time, but in the last decade or so his designs have been re-discovered by high-end interior designers. He rightfully earns a place on my list of Mid Century Design Icons. You can read more about these Design Icons here, and here and here.

BLUSH PINK INTERIORS DONE RIGHT
BLUSH PINK INTERIORS DONE RIGHT
Blush Pink Interiors for spring is still the vibe right now. Alson known as Rose Quartz, it was the official color of 2016. Personally, I tend to think that pink is for little girls, but these pics prove that blush pink interiors can be totally perfect. And that I may be a bit prejudiced…

AN AMSTERDAM LOFT
An Amsterdam loft is the latest project I just finalised. As you may know I am, besides an interior-design blogger, also a 3D Artist. My blog actually helps me make sense of all the trends and hypes in interior-land. So that I can create my 3D Artist Impressions with added creativity and informed interior design choices. (more…)

DARK KITCHENS
Dark kitchens are on my mind right now. I am doing a project creating visuals for a huge townhouse here in Amsterdam. This house will have a summer kitchen and a winter kitchen. I’m thinking of making the winter kitchen dark and cosy. Not sure yet whether it will be industrial, modern rustic or classic chic so I have been collecting imagery for all three styles.
Typical characteristics for…

ON TREND: THE ROUND MIRROR
I’m back again and what has drawn my eye lately is the large round mirror. They are suddenly turning up in lots of blogs that find their way to my inbox daily and a quick browse on Pinterest rewarded me with lots of round mirror inspiration. I am not talking about the standard size of old, but huge ones with at least a 1 metre diameter.

RETRO REDEFINED: THE SAMSUNG SERIF TV
The Samsung Serif TV is the result of a collaboration between the talented designer brothers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec and the household electronics brand Samsung. Because the frame of the TV looks like the letter “I” with serifs in profile, hence the name Serif.

In 2014, Arch Daily published an article predicting the architectural trends that will define the next decade. It features a range of futuristic marvels from hypnotic bridges in China and inflatable concert venues in Japan, to Mexico’s natural disaster-proof citadels and Sweden’s wooden skyscrapers. (more…)

BARE BRICK WALLS
Bare brick walls can be such a treasure for you to your home… while it can also be an eye-sore to others… basicly, it’s all in the eye of the beholder. Personally, I love bare brick walls, as they add a quirky quality, an imperfection that makes a room interesting. (more…)

ORGANIC CERAMICS
Organic ceramics was what I was thinking this morning. Over time I have seen lots of these demure beauties on the net. So I decided to make a small collection of them. What they have in common are the muted, desaturated natural colors. The odd and uneven shapes. The, often locally sourced, natural clay materials. (more…)

ON TREND: MACRAME WALLHANGINGS
Macrame wallhangings have been all the rage now for a while. I see them all the time in the interiors of the young, cool and hip. Pinterest is filled with them. Isn’t it funny how some things from the past come back time and time again? But this time around it is macrame with a twist: same principle of knot-tying now done with different materials and colors. Huge macrame pieces used as a…

STAIRWAY COLLECTION
This stairway collection is the result of a long period of time perusing the internet. Making my way shifting and saving the stairs that struck my eye as being beautiful or unusual. Famous stairs (Coco Chanel’s stairs in her Paris boutique), medieval stairs, gothic stairs, ornate stairs or stark and minimal contemporary stairs. Wooden stairs, steel stairs, glass stairs (you should NOT have…
