Our new bathrooms: Mora Armatur

Finally we´re starting to see the end of our building project. Didn´t want to turn this blog into a building-site, but now, as our house is almost finished, I thought I´d show you the bathrooms. My camera is lost in a box somewhere, so you have to forgive the iphone pics...

Just love the bathtub faucet, Mora Inxx from Swedish brand Mora. Bathtub needs to get built in..  We´re missing the mirrors and the lights, and the shower is still wrapped in plastic - but in less than a week - we´re in!

House P by German Philipp Architekten, built with only a few materials as light gray natural stone, elm and oak wood, and with smooth white plaster surfaces. More on the Contemporist

We´re one week away from moving into our new house, just moved out of our tiny rental and are heading for the mountain cabin while we wait. Try to keep up blogging, but a bit busy these days. Can´t wait to show you our finished house!

Cool wooden details in this Dutch house by architect Paul de Ruiter via arch daily. We´re moving in to our own dreamhouse in a few weeks, feel I spend all my time packing and organizing, but guess it´s worth it in the end.
