in the mail



A photo from KW, the institute of contemporary art in Berlin .
By immensely talanted and generous Kristina of no penny for them.  See the photo here. I am fascinated by the depth and the reflections. I can't stop looking at it. Sinking into it. Earlier today I found my nine year old standing looking at it. All absorbed. It's calm and yet very dramatic at the same time depending on how you look. Thank you so much,  Kristina!

light


I need light. It's unbelievable dark here. This time of year I always fantasize about being a bear and sleep all winter. I could do that. Definitely.

Bright parisian bedroom from Sköna hem.

book








This book, Arkitektens fritidshus (maybe something like The Architect's Summer House), by Kenneth Kauppi and photographer Patric Johansson is on my Christmas wish list.

new wallpaper up




I posted this wallpaper before, here. Obligat mutualism by Ida Arnfelt. We bought it and last night we put it up. I am so so happy with it. This is before.

friday




Trying new things. Quorn instead of minced meat for the friday taco dinner(the kids didn't notice) and a new photoreceptive objective. With a steady hand you can take pictures in almost complete darkness. Without flash. I wish you a great weekend. We suddenly got snow here this week so I have some last minute gardening to do.

House for sale in the Stockholm archipelago. Look at the (three!) old cast iron stoves. Like royalties.

Some of the pictures slightly cropped. See the whole ad here
