Stockholm February 2016, part two
Day three brought us to Gamla Stan for a morning meeting. I absolutely love the coloured buildings. It was an especially grey and dark week and the colours certainly bring some joy.
We enjoyed a lovely conversation about design at Cia Weden and Lovisa Wattman’s shared studio. You may remember Lovisa from our very first Mjölk book. I absolutely love how the Swedish offset the dimness of winter with candles.
Terrazzo flooring at Gamla Stan station.
Next up was lunch at Ett Hem. We originally wanted to stay there but they were fully booked, so a meal in their kitchen was the next best option. Served at the communal harvest table in the cozy kitchen, we dined on a two course meal. To our surprise, none other than Ilse Crawford ended up dining with us. What a pleasure it was to be able to discuss design with her.
Then we had a quick peek around…
Pallo Vase by Carina Seth Andersson.
I liked the green tile in the bathroom, which matched my blouse.
Our first visit to the Svenskt Tenn tea room.
Estrid Ericson‘s office.
Asplund featured a pairing of Pia Wallén capelets, bags and slippers on Asplund utility furniture by Broberg & Ridderstråle.
We were supposed to meet somewhere new to us for dinner with the Anderssen & Voll team however we ended up at our old favourite Pelikan, for SOS and meatballs.
