Hello dear friends! I hope you had a lovely weekend? I've got a beeeeeautiful home tour for you today which I think will put a spring in our step!
I've been a fan of Elsa Billgren's work for many years. The Swedish TV presenter, fashion and interior stylist and author has such a lovely sense of style and anything that she turns her hand to turns to gold - in a way that's authentically Elsa. Hence why I have featured many of her homes in the past, including her Gotland summer cottage, previous colourful apartment - and even this one!
And then this weekend, I discovered that Elsa has put her Stockholm home on the market! There are three great things about this: 1) we get to admire every nook and cranny once again, 2) we get to peek around corners we might not have seen before and 3) it's available to buy!
Get ready to feel inspired by antique pieces, cosy texture and a Swedish style where tradition meets contemporary elegance.
How lovely! Do you agree?
A wise friend (Holly Becker of Decor8 blog) once said to me that when you listen to a talk, no matter how familiar the topic, you usually learn at least one new thing. This has proven to be true time and time again. And I think the same goes for home tours!
Per and I have been trying to find a way to cover the really ugly fuse box in the tiny hallway at the summer cottage. We were considering building a box around it - but the area is so tight and awkward. A curtain (like the one seen in Elsa's home) might just be the answer we've been looking for!! I love the floor too!
Is there anything that stood out to you about Elsa's home today?
I can't wait to see what she does next!
Have a fabulous start to the week raringar!

ReplyDelete:) it really is.
DeleteAbsolutely beautiful - love the pale pink sofa!
ReplyDeleteYes! The pink sofa is fab! Thank you for pointing this out.
DeleteLa cocina es perfecta. Hermosa casa
ReplyDelete:) happy you liked this tour too.
DeleteAbout the fuse box, you can hand a calendar over it on a cup hook. Or use any kind of art with a thicker frame that is bigger than the fuse box.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great alternative, I'll look into this option too. Thank you.
DeleteWhat a beautiful space!
ReplyDeleteI thought you'd like this one Kris!
DeleteShe must be sad to leave such a beautiful flat. I love the kitchen please tell me it’s not custom cabinets. I’m planning something like this for my flat.
ReplyDeleteThey look like cabinets from Swedish brand Nordiska Kök, so you might just be able to find these for your own kitchen. So gorgeous!
DeleteWhat a pretty home! I enjoyed seeing all of it. One thing in -particular that caught my eye was the arch in the bathroom wall - was that a mirror?? And the built in shelving holding towels and baskets, etc. topped by marble was an elegant touch. The painted floor in a diamond or harlequin pattern was another chic moment.
ReplyDeleteAlso meant to say, her sweet dog was adorable. Pets always find the best seat in the house! Pamela T
DeleteWell spotted. Thank you for pointing this out. It looks like they've made the most of a recess by getting a bespoke mirror and shelving made to fit under the arch - lovely idea!
DeleteI love everything about this place - especially the mirrors!
ReplyDeleteThank you for pointing out the mirrors, these are great as they make the home feel larger and also lighter come winter time.
