A Bar in Copenhagen

Ah, it's Friday - and lets finish the week with a cool and relaxed bar from Copenhagen called Lidkoeb. I would be happy here, easing back into one of those comfy Borge Mogensen's Spanish Chairs and catching up with friends at the end of the day. This feels like a cosy living room - inviting and comfortable, thanks to the use of warm timbers, leather and shaggy fur throws.

Laurel Hardware

This is Laurel Hardware  - a former hardware store which has been reincarnated into a restaurant and bar earlier this year. Located near Laurel Canyon in West Hollywood, this establishment has retain the old fashioned charm of the former store, while creating a homey spirit and fresh vibe with the new installation. Check out the amazing back courtyard and I love the contrast between the fresh white tiled eating area and the moody bar at the back. Designed by Sam Marshall.
