CHILL ZONE
Rebecca Boektje and Bo The's upstairs living area has an industrial New York look and features a curvy, contemporary sofa and a handmade Indian leopard pouffe.
DINING
Rebecca designed the oval table herself. The table top is made from salvaged wood and the shape is great for seating lots of people.

MEET & GREET
Rebecca Boektje (social media influencer and travel blogger), her husband Bo The (creative agency owner), and their three children, Yuki, five, Ravi, three, and Xan, two.
THE PROPERTY
Four-floor historical 1886 townhouse in Amsterdam.
KITCHEN
The countertop is made of composite, which is a practical choice for a home with young children. The customised cabinetry is from a kitchen furniture company Bo found on Instagram.
Young urban professional, mother of three and keen traveller are just parts of who Rebecca Boektje is. A successful social media influencer, Rebecca @rebeccaboektje has turned her passion for interiors, family life and fashion into a thriving occupation. And she even has time to write and maintain a popular travel blog, My Travel Boektje.
Rebecca is a style junkie, not only when it comes to her home, but fashion in general. Decorating and designing her new, city home was a massive adventure, but it's one she embraced wholeheartedly. As an Instagram influencer, the platform was a huge source of inspiration for her. Using her network, she could build on her ideas for her interior and discover the suppliers or outlets others had used to buy the right materials to bring their ideas to fruition.
