THE INSTAGRAM algorithm seems to think that we love all things Scandinavian at the moment, and perhaps we do. That's how we came across Finnish social media content creator Metti Forssell (@mettiforssell) for this instalment of 10 IMAGES. We hadn't known of her before, but we love her penchant for chubby furniture and boiserie, chevron flooring and chandeliers; coffee and pastries on marble tables, shrimp pasta, bouclé chairs and more...
Ever since founding Beyond Meat Inc. in 2009 with the then fantastical idea of making meat without animals, Ethan Brown has been giving the equivalent of one extremely long TED Talk.

In January 2021, 18 months after a sticky divorce, I bought a house. I bought it partly because I could – my ex-wife and I had got lucky on the property ladder and walked away with enough money for a deposit each. But also, I bought it because I was desperate. With shared custody of our two-year-old daughter, I needed a place where she could be happy and where I could get back on my feet.

THIS INSTALMENT OF 10 IMAGES features the wonderfully bright and happiness-inducing photos of @alicedetogni. Her use of colour is inspired: from the purple umbrellas of San Fruttuoso, Liguria, Italy to the macarons at Ladurée; to picnics in orange gingham sundresses to fields of wildflowers, it's impossible to look at this interior and graphic designer's feed without feeling that the world is a wonderful place ...
THIS INSTALMENT OF 10 IMAGES features the beautiful photos of Rome, Italy by photographer Daniele Bianchi (@dani_bi90). It is a place we still haven't yet managed to visit despite traipsing all over Europe.

We're not certain if it's because we've been working so hard this (Dry) January to eat healthy, lower calorie meals, but we find it extremely satisfying to stare at her gleaming refrigerator filled with fruits and vegetables and honey, walnuts and almonds ...
