From Printing House to Family Home: A Relaxed Swedish Tour

It’s not every day that a home like this comes onto the market. After fourteen years, the owners are now saying goodbye to their unique Liljeholmen home, a place where children have grown up, everyday life has unfolded, and the ordinary has been turned into something special.

Once a printing house, the home still carries traces of its past, yet the interior today is a relaxed and creative mix of industrial edge, 1960s warmth, and modern comfort.

One of the things I really love is the way the owners have decorated the walls and surfaces. Art prints, shelves, and plenty of smart storage are not just practical; they also act as display space for books, objects, and plants. The result is a home that feels both personal and inspiring, layered with stories and details that catch your eye at every turn. And weaving through it all is a subtle thread of pink, appearing in tiles, textiles, and artwork, that softens the industrial base and brings a playful warmth to each room.

And then, right in the middle of it all, you have the very cool staircase, which subtly divides the space into different zones for lounging, working, and gathering, while still keeping the atmosphere open and airy. Painted a crisp white, it feels sculptural against the earthy tones, greenery, and touches of pink that tie the whole home together.

Let’s step inside and take a closer look at this inspiring home.









As I look back through this tour, a few details really stand out to me. I love the little home office alcove, tucked away yet brimming with creativity. I’m also so inspired by the way the walls and storage surfaces have been used to display art and personal objects — it makes the whole home feel layered and alive. And then there are those unexpected pink tiles in the bathroom… something I don’t think I would have dared to choose myself, but now I can’t imagine the space without them. They’re bold, fun, and somehow soft all at once.

What caught your eye in this home? Did anything surprise or inspire you? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments below. 

Fancy taking a look at a few other Swedish homes today? how about:

I hope you enjoyed these too! 

On a final note, I wanted to share my latest project with you that I've been working away on with a team of lovely people: the IKEA kitchen matchmaker - it's a fun, light-hearted quiz with nine questions which will lead you to your culinary crush in the form of a kitchen that matches your personality. I got Cosy Culinary. I'd be very curious to hear what kichen you get! Feel free to share far and wide! per really loved taking part in the quiz too. 

Kram!
