Get their look: Holiday houseboat

Holiday houseboatcredit

We have a beautiful holiday houseboat for this week’s Get their look. The constant dreary weather and holiday ads being shown over & over again on television are certainly influencing our recent choices for this particular blog feature. I can’t stop dreaming about getting away to somewhere we’ve not been before… and if it coincided with some sunny weather, that would be a bonus!

Justin regularly says that he could live on a boat, but I always reply that I’d never do it, I need space and would feel trapped and claustrophobic. That was, until I saw this houseboat!

The 4-bedroomed, 2-deck houseboat – named Sturdy – is moored in Bembridge Harbour on the Isle of Wight and is available to rent. The interior is bright, airy and the view is just amazing.

  1. Multicoloured tumblers
  2. Double Paris pendant light, adjustable – glass
  3. Chicago floor lamp, antique copper and gold
  4. Racing green Rangemaster 110
  5. Nordal zinc dining table with mouse legs
  6. Downtown metal chair

Get their look: Floating industrial kitchen

Industrial kitchen in a floating house in Utrechtcredit

Last week, we featured a house on the water. This week, guess what? We’re doing it again. The floating industrial kitchen in the photo above is from a houseboat moored in Utrecht in the Netherlands.

There are long, wraparound windows right the way along the upper floor living area, affording expansive views out across the water. The interior of the kitchen is kitted out using reclaimed timber with bare plaster walls and hammered sheets of zinc for work surfaces. There’s good continuity and flow to the various zones within the open plan space.

The space is spare but has everything you need with some fabulous design elements. It’s extremely well laid out and very practical.

  1. LÄMPLIG bamboo chopping board
  2. Vogue pedestal pre-rinse spray
  3. Selected by Charlotte Perriand for Les Arcs Ski Resort, two high bar stools
  4. Cuisinart SM-70BC 7-quart 12-speed stand mixer, brushed chrome

  8. ARV BRÖLLOP clear glass serving stand with lid
  9. Polished grey marble pestle and mortar
