大學念攝影的 Marieke,出社會後卻從事了展場佈置的工作。慢慢累積了有關室內設計與擺設的經驗後,與朋友在阿姆斯特丹的城市海灘合開了一間販賣海灘用品的商店。當時,Marieke 同時忙著店面的瑣事,公寓樓上的 airbnb,與剛出生不久的女兒。過了幾年後,她決定退出店鋪,好好花時間顧好小孩與家裡的瑣事。
比起之前住在三樓沒有任何陽台或戶外空間的公寓,現在 Marieke 一家人住在公寓的一樓,後面的花園除了先生的工具間之外,更有許多與女兒一起種的蔬菜水果等。他們跟隔壁鄰居關係很好,兩家的後院甚至開通了可以隨時走到隔壁。房子充滿他們從各種地方找到的古董與「寶物」, 加上許多自己用心手作的小家具與裝飾,就連荷蘭陰暗的冬天來臨時一家人也能在家裡感到很溫暖。
From beach to bohemian – Marieke’s Amsterdam apartment by the river
After studying photography in college, Marieke found her interests in event and interior designing instead. After working for some years, she continued on to opening a beach store with a friend on the city beach of Amsterdam. Juggling between a business and a bed & breakfast upstairs and also with the birth of her daughter, Marieke decided to quit the beach store and focus on her family and fun work around the house.
Compared with the third-floor apartment they last lived in without balconies or outdoor space, the family now happily lives on the ground floor apartment with a home-grown garden and a workspace for the husband. They love this beautiful neighborhood close to the Amstel River and also their neighbors so much that they even opened up the fence to each other’s garden. The house is a lovely mixture between good vintage finds and their homemade items, and even in the cold winter months the family still feels cozy and comfortable inside their home.

房子無論在夏天或冬天時都感覺很溫暖
在開始規劃前先好好感受一下房子的空間。 房子並不一定要大才能舒適。讓房子變成你的,而不是設計師的。記得要養植物。我們不迷戀或對任何品牌特別喜愛,但我們時常被設計師與他們的作品所啟發。小的房子必須要特別實際,而且一定要舒適。如果太有設計感我們反而無法有家的感覺。當然有很多細節我們想要改變,但我們對於現在狀態已經很滿意。當我們找到新的(大概也會是二手)物品時,我們可能才會重新改裝。

Feel the house before you start making plans. A house does not need to be big to make it feel comfortable to live in. Make it personal, not designer. Keep plants
We are not in any way sensitive for or influensed by brands. Only sometimes inspired by designers and their makings.
A mix of vintage with homemade designs. Good finds vs good ideas.Small housing needs to practical, and above all comfortable. If its to much design it wont feel at home for us. There are still a lot of things we want to improve, but for now everything is fine the way it is, and then we can change them when we run into the new (probable secondhand) items.
