An elegant, light and airy Swedish home

Hello! I'm so far behind today with everything. It's one of those crazy pre-Christmas days. I've finally taken myself round the corner to a little café by the sea to get focused on today's home tour. And what a beauty it is! Recently sold through Bjurfors 'exclusive', the designers at Bybon have made the most of the large spacious rooms, parquet flooring and beautiful period features by adding sheer curtains, soft tones and classic furniture. What lovely home staging,  and what a fabulous apartment?! I think a move to Gothenburg is in order, don't you?!

I feel a little calmer now, how about you?!

A few items I love in this home: hay tray table, Z1 cotton pendant light, IKEA daybed, bent wood chairs, stonewashed linen table cloth, buy made-to-order sheer curtains here, sea grass belly basket.

A few more dreamy white and grey homes (over 100 to be precise - crazy, I know!) squirrelled away in this archive. Enjoy!

Have a wonderful, calm day! 

PS Thank you to everyone for entering the give-away to win a fab typography poster from Kortkartellet. The winner has now been announced here.... oh the suspense.... and if it wasn't you, no worries, there's another wonderful pre-Christmas give-away going live shortly (watch this space!).

A cosy cocoon-like Swedish home

As the days get darker and colder here in Sweden it's tempting to stay indoors, light candles and cocoon yourself in a jumble of soft blankets (I'm thinking this one!). Although dark interiors might not be for everyone, there's no denying that the elegant home of Swedish stylist Lotta Agaton evokes the feeling of a cosiness with it's grey walls and ceilings and layers of soft textures. I could quite easily curl up here for the day and read books and magazines - how about you?!

This apartment is just so incredibly striking, trust Lotta Agaton to create such a beautiful space (her last home was pretty great too!)! And full credits to photographer Pia Ulin for capturing it so beautifully too!

Is this your kind of style?

A few items I know and love from Lotta's home: Molecular light (although not featured, I also love this table lamp!). Kaare klint safari chair. Brown sheepskin throw. The rug in the hallway looks like a Gan.

For a similar wall colour try Farrow & Ball dark hues. And there's a whole archive dedicated to 'decorating with grey' here.

If you came here looking for Christmas inspiration try here (there'll be more festive posts to follow this week too!).

Have a wonderful day! 

PS it's the last day to enter to win a poster of your choice from Korkartellet - hurry!
