At home with blogger Sabrina from so.leben.wir
A home always tells the story of the people who live in it. With Sabrina, founder of the blog so.leben.wir, you feel this personal touch straight away: her house in northern Germany combines a modern interior style with a cosy hygge atmosphere, loving details and a great passion for flowers and nature.
Sabrina lives near Hamburg in Germany with her husband and their two sons. In her home, timeless design classics meet playful elements, DIY ideas meet personal keepsakes, and modern furnishings meet the warmth of a real family home.
Flowers, decor and personal favourites
For Sabrina, flowers are simply part of life – in the house as much as in the garden. She uses fresh bouquets to add splashes of colour, create contrasts and bring nature indoors.
But for her, a homely feel isn't created by furniture alone. It's the right accessories that make a room personal and give it character. Pictures, keepsakes and special finds tell stories and turn rooms into a home.
"Modern, hyggelig and playful" – that's how Sabrina describes her interior style. And there's one colour she can't do without: pink. She uses it to add deliberate feminine accents, giving her interior a warm, friendly atmosphere.
Classics meet modern design
When furnishing her house, Sabrina goes for a mix of timeless classics and modern elements. For her, the two styles complement each other perfectly: design classics bring permanence and elegance, while contemporary pieces add fresh impetus.
A good example is the Eames RAR rocking chair by Vitra. The iconic design combines comfort with an unmistakable design language and adapts to a range of interior styles.
For Sabrina, that's exactly what makes design classics special: they stay with you for many years, can be combined in new ways again and again, and remain relevant regardless of trends.
Favourite spot: relaxing between sofa, rocking chair and garden
Cosiness plays a big role in Sabrina's home. Especially in the colder months, the living room becomes a retreat: a crackling fire, comfortable seating and a favourite series make for relaxed evenings with the family.
In summer, life moves outdoors. For Sabrina, the garden is a place to switch off, discover and be creative. Among flowers, plants and small gardening projects, she finds calm and inspiration.
A children's room that encourages creativity
As a mother of two, Sabrina knows that a children's room should above all be a space to play, explore and feel at ease.
When furnishing it, she makes a point of seeing things from her children's perspective. Books, cuddly toys and toys should be within reach so that children can use their room independently.
Light, friendly colours create a pleasant atmosphere. At the same time, Sabrina prefers understated design to large, bold patterns. That leaves room for the children's own imagination and creativity.
Practical solutions are part of it too: toy boxes help you tidy up quickly while leaving enough space for new adventures.
A life connected with nature
The garden is an important part of Sabrina's home. Her passion for gardening keeps sparking new ideas and projects. She's especially inspired by the time she spends outdoors with her children.
Whether planting, tinkering or exploring the greenery: for Sabrina, home isn't just about the interior. The outdoor space is also a place full of possibilities, memories and shared moments.
Conclusion: a home with personality
Sabrina's interior style shows that a beautiful home doesn't need to be perfectly staged. It's created by personal favourites, natural elements and the things that bring joy to everyday life.
The combination of design classics, playful details, flowers and cosy retreats makes her house a place full of warmth and personality. A home that doesn't just look good but feels good too.
