the right way to convert a barn into a home

Shed is a Seatlle based firm which was founded on the motto "we design things and we make them". Shed has grown since that motto was coined and now is no longer responsible for all the construction of their designs, but continues to hold strong to these main beliefs:

 " We believe that architecture is a practical art.
    We believe that a pragmatic approach yields progressive design solutions.
    We believe that buildings must use resources wisely.
    We believe that architecture must sustain the way people live, work and play."

Tine K Home

Tine Kjeldsen opened her company in Denmark at the young age of 22. Kjeldsen has stood out amongst the other "shabby chic" interior decorators in the area by creating "a more minimalistic approach: clean colors in grey, blue, white, dark brown and black which eventually lead to the creation of a collection of cushions and quilts, and consequently the foundation of the company Tine K Home."

The posting below is a selection of images from Tine's own Danish home which clearly defines her company's style and methodology to creating a minimalistic home (all the while offering a cozy feel)

"According to me, the future is interesting, difficult and rather complex, but I try not to complicate matters: live your life in a simple way – and live in happiness.
I am confident, I stay true to myself, and I am sure my collection is a reflection of how I perceive myself. Hence its name: Remember Yourself."          - Tine Kjeldsen
