Natural motifs in the interior of Maggie's apartment andJose A couple of lovers will show us natural motifs in the interior of their apartment. When Maggie and Jose could no longer afford the expensive rent of their apartment in San Francisco, they decided to pack up their things and move to Oakland - this is what many do who cannot afford the high rent of housing in the Bay Area. They were not the first time in Oakland. Maggie has relatives living there, and Jose and his friend opened a coffee shop there a year before moving. Eight months later, the couple "put down roots" in this cozy apartment with a bohemian interior.
It took the couple less than a year to createincredibly cozy home Inspired by vintage second-hand shops and various bohemian trends, the couple was able to furnish the house in a style that combines Maggie's great love for plants and objects that remind her of home and family. At the entrance to the apartment, you can see butterflies that the couple brought from Peru, the homeland of Jose, and the apartment itself is furnished with furniture that Maggie got from her mother. All these elements make the apartment incredibly cozy, and the house - filled with energy.
Metal shelves solve the problem of storing things in a small apartment space
Maggie about the design of his apartment:
Style: Vintage, but not kitsch. Graphic nature. Inspiration: Maggie's mom, thrift stores, internet, blogs. Favorite interior item: Plants.
Flowers and plants on a wicker shelf Hometask: The apartment is small. We like it when there are a lot of different things and objects in the house, but we don’t like the feeling of overcrowding. There needs to be a limit everywhere! What friends say: More plants? Seriously? Advice: You need to store things in beautiful containers. I store my accessories in ceramic containers, not plastic boxes.
In the kitchen, spices and bulk products are stored in identical jars. Sources of inspiration: Vintage items (from Ebay)
The couple's friends often gather in the backyard.
