BERLIN FINDS: Villa Harteneck Interior Decor

October 19, 2013

As part of our Grunewald tour in the WIB First Steps in Berlin Group, we visited the luxury interior design shop, Villa Harteneck. I absolutely love the casual but oh-so-luxe look, so this visit was very exciting for me. The facade of the store alone was already so impressive. How could it not be? The store is situated inside a neoclassical villa. I could not wait to see the interiors. This is a photoblog of everything that caught my eye in the store, and because everything in the store is carefully curated and utterly beautiful, you can see how crazy I went after the jump.

Luxe Interior Design by Frank Stüve

Villa Harteneck is a full-service Interior Design shop that can handle everything home interiors related: furniture, accessories, dinnerware, flowers, gardens, and event styling. Because of this, the showroom isn’t as bare as most showrooms, it has a lived-in look… as if the stylish owner of the villa has just welcomed you into their home. And the team of Villa Harteneck makes you imagine what your home could look like.

Their range of home scents is in this room, and you’ll know it the moment you sniff the heavenly scents.

I was drooling over this gold lamp and bookshelf. The bookshelf is to die for; it’s basically a piece of art! I checked the price tag and I realized that this is something that I will never in my life be able to afford – let me give you a hint, it’s the price of a Mercedes Benz. LOL!

My favorite part of the store was the backmost living area which was filled with all things gold – my favorite color! It wasn’t a tacky gold, but a luxe pale gold mixed with warm colors – making the room feel so cozy, even if everything in that room is uber luxe and pricey.

Gold tea cups!

I love these 2 pieces of black and white art on the wall. There is something so hauntingly beautiful about their facial expressions. If I had the money I would buy the one on the right.

I think the lamps are good value… they are affordable, especially for the high-quality material and workmanship.

The exterior space is just as lovely with so much stunning greenery!

This store might be high-end, but it doesn’t hurt to visit especially if you want to be inspired by beauty and design. I am so in love with how Frank Stüve and his team are able to mix such eclectic styles, textures, and prints.

Another thing I noticed is that even if this is in the category of luxury, the sofas and other furniture are very comfy. Not the kind of high-end stuff that you are afraid to use and enjoy. High style and design combined with functionality – for me this is the best combination! I hope you enjoyed the photos!

Every year I add a little bit more to my Halloween Every year I add a little bit more to my Halloween decor collection so it’s not so heavy on the wallet. I’m so happy with this year’s finds & make sure to carefully store them so they have many more years of use.

It was @diplobaby’s idea to add googly eyes to the bats. So we did it together! I love the one eyed bats 🦇 and I love it when we decorate together! Definitely one for the core memory banks! 👻🎃🤍

I was tickled pink coz people would pass by and take pics, stare or even tell me good job. 🎃 Halloween is really my favorite holiday!

What do you think of our Halloween prep this year?

I couldn’t stop laughing! It was still a little I couldn’t stop laughing! It was still a little too long for him this year but we sure got a kick from it.

VILLAGE PUMPKIN CARVING EVENT Every year I look f VILLAGE PUMPKIN CARVING EVENT

Every year I look forward to this event for families in our village. We also invite our friends outside the village coz it’s so much fun for families. Parents and kids can come in costume. It’s done beside a fabulous park so kids can run around and play.

The pumpkins 🎃 might be overpriced (the bigger ones went from chf 18 last year to chf 23 this year) BUT it includes the free use of NIFTY CARVING TOOLS, waste disposal, clean up & cute decor that the organizers have provided.

We draw together. TD removes the guts. Then @diplobaby & i do the carving together with our son and it’s a controlled way of showing him how to use the tools in a safe way. Which is something I appreciate in Europe.

One year we tried pumpkin 🎃 carving at home and clean up was a totally nightmare. Never doing it again!

Then when kids and parents are are hungry we can buy food & drinks. 

We go home with a carved pumpkin 🎃 & don’t have to do the clean up. The pumpkin guts are also turned into soup by the organizers.

It’s also a good way for parents to unwind, catch up while the kids play in the playground. We usually see our neighbors here too.

It’s a win win for everyone & it reduces unused waste. I love it so much!

We never did pumpkins before coz it would rot@so fast in Asia. But i  the past 3 seasons of doing this I’ve learned so many tips and tricks for pumpkin 🎃 carving - especially how to prevent molds and insects. Let me know if you want me to do a separate post on that!

Hi guys it’s been a while since I’ve posted ab Hi guys it’s been a while since I’ve posted about our #DiploHome.

This is our BALCONY/TRASH SEGREGATION AREA.

Because we use it to entertain in SPRING & AUTUMN (too hot & too many insects in summer) I made sure that the trash segregation remains AESTHETIC by using white @ikeaschweiz SEGREGATION BINS.

So far SWITZERLAND TRASH SEGREGATION in our experience is even more complex than GERMANY but it has led to at least 50% RECYCLING rate which is pretty good, even though Germany still has the highest rate of recycling 66%

Let me know if you want to know more about how we manage trash in our village.
