The green whiteboards: This is how they turned out!


Sorry about the blurry picture, didn't want to share all of my businessplans and honestly didn't have the time or energy to whipe it all of and arrange a more selling look. This is what you get. Can recommend it though.

Sunday sun - shadows


This is what I woke up to. A beautiful shadow on our crisp green curtains made by a lovely sunday sun shining through the plants. Can feel a good day coming.
 

Reuse:Before


So here's my next project... Not much of a showoff for the moment, sure needs some update. Well, just bought some paint, so let's see what I can turn it into...will soon be back for the (hopefully more upbringing) result. No need to throw away a perfectly good piece of furniture.

Now and then


Thought I'd come far, but what goes around comes around. Had a vague feeling that my favourite APC dress felt somehow familiar...

Handpainted reference


Today's DN Söndag guided the readers through a 5 pages fashion and cultural spread on a Brideshead Revisited (En förlorad värld) inspired look. Never mentiones Sebastians oh so cool cardigan though... Anyway, the set was Taxinge Castle, not Brideshead of course (or Castle Towers in real life), and the Charles and Sebastian look a like-models was placed in a beautiful couch as in the film, in front of an absolutely gorgeous handpainted wallpaper (green, birds, trees). Which at once lead me to search out this picture which shows a small part of a mural I did about ten years ago.

Aren't they getting slightly greenish...



...my fingers that is. Since we now have a lovely big balcony (also great for parties), I can promis you my fingers will be getting greener every season. This is our lilys and tomatoes by the way. Sadly August has been sooo cold.

Our bold new table


So this is how it turned out, just finished painting the top coat. I am absolutely in love with this "colour-of-the-season" bloodred-close to purple-colour. Why just use it on your favourite fashionable tie-front top?

Everyday inspiration


To keep track of all the (brilliant) ideas that pops into your head, I can surely recommend these fabulous notebooks from Bookbinders design. They make it twice as fun to actually write and sketch everything down. 

Proud owner - Bliw!


I happen to be the proud owner of the original prototype of the almost legendary Bliw soap, recognized and loved by the many people through its distinctive "Bubble" packaging, Sweden's first ever liquid soap, launched in 1968. Why do I have it - because it was my grandfather who came up with the idea! For a couple of years ago the packaging was very carefully redesigned by an Italian designer, I've forgot who - can you help me?

Instead of shower curtains...

New hue

Colourmania


As you might allready have noticed, I'm all into colour. I am one of those (few) people who never thinks a colour can be ugly in itself. It's all about how and when you use it. I'm giving you some (colour) examples from my new apartment in Hammarby Sjöstad. The picture above is a sneak preview of a new table I'm working at. Colour can be used in a lovely way where you least expect it.

C - art


One of my recent paintings. Before I got my design degree, I painted murals etc. Painting is still a passion for me. If you're interested, contact me for more information.
