High on my wishlist is a pair of Adrian Mustelins sunglasses Rebornshades. A vintage look, handmade and in a limited edition (each pair is numbered)...
I've spent a few days in Gothenburg and today before I left I went to Trädgårdsföreningen (The Garden Society) which is close to the central station. According to themselves it is one of the best preserved 19th century parks in Europe (founded 1842), honoured by the Guide Michelin.
Award winning Forest armchair and chair are designed by Robby and Francesca Cantarutti for Italian aluminium furniture design company Fast. With legs, swivelling or on wheels, it is well-suited to interior contexts, for offices and the outdoors.
I just bought a new bedcover/quilt from AnnaO. She makes beautiful cushions, quilts and shawls of textiles from India. Her website is under construction but you can find her design at R.O.O.M and Länna Möbler.
I just moved to a bigger apartment (one more bedroom, so Sonja can have her own room) and started to look at wallpapers for the bedroom. In all other rooms I want just plain white walls but in the bedrooms I want colourful wallpapers. My favorite is a wallpaper designed by Hanna Waerning from her 2006 years collection "Hanna", manufactured by Borås Tapeter.
Minimarket is a swedish clothing label designed by three sisters (Sofie, Pernilla, Jennifer). Here are some images from their 2009 spring/summer collection. Nice with strong colours; red, green and blue.
Stockholm has been busy with two contemporary art fairs this week-end: Market and Supermarket. The gallery Roger Björkholmen showed at Market and presented some works by Lukas Göthman who is a personal favourite. He paints letters which sentence by sentence build a visual composition set over a monochrome of colour. He has a very special way of working with repetitive text and each combination of a text and background colour set a different emotional tone for the work.
I live in Stockholm and have a web gallery, Andyland, with works by some of Sweden's best illustrators and photographers. This blog is about things that I'm currently inspired by or obsessing over!
