Our living room in Sweden with our new Butter Sheer curtains blowing in the wind rather pleasingly… It happens that I start off thinking that I don’t need curtains but when I inevitably cave in because it looks empty it always lifts the room. In this house I generally made much simpler unlined curtains and sheers, using roller blinds where I needed black out, rather than thicker ‘English’ style curtains. When the sun hits the sheers from behind it gives the most wonderful, buttery glow to the whole room. The double-width butter sheer is part of our plains range launching this week, follow our link in highlights to order samples and read more. #interior #interiordesign #interiors #inspiration #inredning #beataheumaninteriors #beataheuman

Our new plain linens launched this week as seen from our courtyard at 188. The linen is produced using flax grown on sunshine and rain in northern France and Belgium and the longest fibres are selected to create a better, stronger quality linen. We developed our colours based on things we feel we need and always use; Amber, Bay, Buttermilk, Charcoal, Indigo, Sage and (of course) Sugar which is our all time favourite for simple curtains. Do follow links in highlights to read more about it and to order samples 😊. 📸 @horwoodphoto styling @mirandaksinclair #188 #plains #beataheuman #beataheumaninteriors #inspiration #interiordesign #inredning #london #londoninteriors #interiors

Please welcome our brand spanking new Plains Range! Having exclusively sold patterned fabrics in the past we thought it was high time to introduce a curated selection of ‘’go-tos’’ to mark the opening of our BH Home 188 Hammersmith Road. Before starting the sampling process the challenge was to pinpoint our absolute favourite hues and textures. In truth, the collection fell into place easily and it is based on what we like using and we feel that we need. We have ‘linens’, ‘mohairs’, ‘fine hemps’, ‘sheers’, a chic, stiff material that we call ‘parchment’ and even a curve ball ‘potato sack’ which I absolutely had to insist on including to the confusion of my team but I think they are all on board now. We’ll be sharing our new designs over the course of this week in stories and you can see the full range on our website where you can also order samples. And yes we hailed down the cab and tipped him a few quid to pose ; ). Thank you @horwoodphoto for the photos and @mirandaksinclair for styling 💫 #plains #188 #beataheuman #beataheumaninterios #inspiration #interiors #interiordesign

This is the hallway on the top floor of our house in Sweden, looking towards the guest room. This floor is almost like an attic and the ceilings are low. I painted the ceiling in a duck egg blue and the beams in a rusty red which somehow made it appear taller as it introduced a sense of depth. The dolls house is the one I had since I was a child, mercilessly shaken about by a snotty toddler it seems 👼. I felt it was looking a little empty so I covered the walls in the children’s paintings - the quick and dirty ‘blue tack’ method! The Turkish rose rug is almost antique and there are lots of bits from auctions dotted about. The second image shows the daybed we made for a spot for reading covered in @florasoames stripe. #sweden #dollshouse #beataheuman #beataheumaninteriors #farmhouse #dockskåp #inspiration #interiordesign #interiors #inredning

Today we open the doors to 188 Hammersmith Road which is our new BH home. This is our library which is where we do our scheming and meetings but it also works perfectly for a dinner party! The house is filled with a mix of our Shoppa products, antiques and vintage finds: here you can see some Swedish Gustavian chairs in thunder blue linseed paint from the mid 18th century, a Piranesi etching of a vase from the same time and a haberdashery cabinet which is 1940s. 188 is open by appointment for anyone interested in seeing our collection, which you can book via our website (link in bio). We’ll do open houses now and then when there is no need to book and we are in fact doing one today Monday 9th October between 10-17. Hope to see you soon! Maybe even today…😉 #188 #beataheuman #beataheumaninteriors #inspiration #library #londoninteriors

188 is all warmed up after an evening of cocktails and cheese toasties! I can confirm the old gal loves a party (referring to both the building and me). Thank you @jasonlloydevans for capturing Thursday eve 💫 #188 #beataheuman #beataheumaninteriors #housewarming

On Monday we officially open the doors to our new BH home, 188 Hammersmith Road! I took this pic a few weeks ago, early one balmy morning before anyone had arrived for the day. We have since planted a magnolia tree (and named him Magnus) on the left-hand side which you’ll see if you walk past. In fact – anyone can make an appointment to see our Shoppa collection, which is mixed with vintage finds and antiques inside. If you peep through the windows you’ll find the library and drawing room on the ground floor, downstairs is our lovely kitchen and the studios where we all work are on the first floor. It has been a huge labour of love and one that will continue to evolve like all homes do… But for now I am happy to open the doors and welcome you in! Appointments are now open via our website ‘188’ section and we are also doing an open day Monday 9th, between 10-17, just up to road from decorex. Pop in to see us! #interiordesign #inspiration #interiors #beataheuman #beataheumaninterios #188hammersmithroad #showrooom

This is the kitchen of @adwoaaboah which is in the October issue of @archdigest . The birch ply was stained yellow enhancing the natural tones of the wood - it took 5 samples to find the perfect tone. We did a bold, chequered back-splash to counterbalance the softness of the cabinets. Rather than having top cabinets we designed some open bobbin shelves (from @alfrednewall ) . It’s a place to put things without blocking any diffused light coming from above. We designed the stained dark green island which provides storage and extra surface space while still feeling light in the space. If it can be avoided I way prefer islands without appliances in them. It’s unlikely that the island will be moved but it feels freeing that it’s possible!

How does one of the hottest interior designers of the moment do up her own house? For @BeataHeuman, it’s all about playful patterns, personal touches and keeping hold of existing character and charm. “I don’t like ripping things out — all the finishes were really lovely. The floors are from the Sixties and I decided to keep them,” says Heuman of her early 18th-century farmhouse holiday home. The Swedish bolt hole is set on her parents’ farm in Landskrona, southern Sweden, and is inspired by her childhood. “I grew up here on the farm. In a way it was relatively isolating so I had to entertain myself, which I think has formed the basis of my creativity,” Heuman says. “I was always thinking up stories and going into different worlds in my imagination and I think that has affected how I work now.” From hand-painted wallpaper that includes all of her mum’s favourite flowers, to a doll’s house made by her father, this home really is a family affair.

Our hotel @hoteldelaboetie is now open for bookings! If you’re in the habit of walking down Rue de la Boétie in Paris you might have already caught a glimpse of the silver room through the shop window. The reflective walls are a nod to the work of the early 20th century decorator Frances Elkins. As an idea it sounds bold but the effect is surprisingly discrete. The design throughout the hotel is a combination of restraint and exuberance which I think this room shows quite well. Also excited to debut our mohair in the colour ‘Canyon’, used on the 2 sofas… the mohair is part of our plains range coming soon… Thank you @touristeltd and @dessellepartners for bringing this project to us! #hoteldelaboetie #hotel #paris #parishotel #interiors #inspiration #interiordesign #beataheuman #beataheumainteriors 📸 @simonbrownphotography

Shot for Wall Street Journal this portrait is taken in the library of 188 Hammersmith Road, our new BH home. Talking about this and that with @emmaelwickbates 😊. Thank you @wsjmag for a wonderful piece!

Happy opening day @hoteldelaboetie ! Sharing a quick sneak peak, this is a photo I took earlier on this week. We were shooting the space and adding some finishing touches and I also got to try out this bed for the first time. It was extremely comfortable. The sleep experience enhanced by the pink sheets which we simply couldn’t resist - a must from the very beginning. The headboards were inspired by the floor in the Medici chapel (part of the Basilica di San Lorenzo) in Florence, woven as kilim rugs and then made into upholstered headboards. The bedsides are solid ash. It has been so much fun doing our first hotel and aside from the interiors I absolutely loved working on the art direction and branding. More to come soon! Thank you so much for trusting us with this project @touristeltd @adriengloaguen and Julie @dallas_pr . Thank you also to @foscamariani and @oliviamillie for working on this with me. Absolutely could not do it without you 😘. #hoteldelaboetie #paris #touriste #inspiration #interior #interiordesign #beataheuman #beataheumaninterios
