Christmas in Stockholm

The Bromberg Sehlberg family live in this beautiful apartment on a quiet avenue in Östermalm in Stockholm. In their previous apartment, red had been the predominant colour for their Christmas decoration. It had lots of energy, but this year they felt they needed a really restful place and chose to tone down the colors on the walls and furnishings. The result: a soft Christmas with elements of natural colors.


Det blir en naturlig jul i år. Självklart ska det extra noga utvalda pyntet fram, men den här gången vill familjen ha det mer vilsamt. En jul med inslag av naturfärger är minst lika härlig som en röd!

Vy från soffgruppen in mot matrummet. Franska fåtöljer, bergèrer, i nyrokoko. Ekskåp från 1700- talet och i taket har kristallkronan i rokokostil, från tidigt 1900-tal, fått sällskap av en myrtenkvist. Fotografi av ­döttrarna under ett besök i Rom.

Våningen har en välkomnande och inbjudande hall, stor nog att rymma en antik soffa och ändå lämna gott om fri golvyta. Ordentligt med plats för kappor och skor döljer sig bakom ett tungt draperi, och i en smatt mot gården finns terrassdörrarna som leder ut till en liten skyddad balkong. Möblemang, textilier och detaljer ger detta hem en tydligt kontinental prägel.













Have a great weekend, my friends, and come back tomorrow!

Cottage in Stockholm

Caroline, Peter, and daughters Molly and Tove live in this cottage in Nacka, Stockholm. Not many photographs I'm afraid so we might have a second post today.




Hey, that's the rug I have in my living room!







See you later, sweets!

Gingerbread House in Sweden

This summer house located on the outskirts of Stockholm is called the "gingerbread house" and was built in 1887. The owners live in London but come here every summer. It also had a fleeting celebrity moment when Brigitte Bardot rented it in 1967 when she starred in a movie nearby.

Ready for Christmas in Stockholm

How nice it is to be home to spend my holiday with my family. I still have lots of things to do before Christmas but I'd like to show you this apartment in Stockholm before I start my busy day.

Located in Östermalm, a large district in central Stockholm, Sweden, it is all ready for Christmas. Gustavian furniture, gilded mirrors and a soft palette of greys and whites define this lovely home.




















I'm sure I'll be able to make another post before Christmas. See you then!
