Tell me nigh your beautiful house:

The really rational construction too the big windows are very “funkis”, piece the decorative details within are to a greater extent than inspired past times the 1920’s style. We liked that the describe solid was left inwards its master copy dry reason amongst a lot of master copy details. We also love the place of our house, it is a cosy, bohemian neighbourhood within walking distance of the urban nub center. And of course, that nosotros convey our ain garden amongst several fruit trees (original from 1934) too infinite to grow our own vegetables.






Have you lot carried out whatsoever major renovations? Yes, nosotros re-made the kitchen too built a modern bath adjacent to our primary bedroom. But nosotros convey also kept the master copy bath amongst a tub inwards the basement. When nosotros made the novel kitchen, nosotros removed a wall to opened upwardly up the kitchen towards the entrance of the house, nosotros hired carpenter Christer Bentmon to create a custom-made kitchen inspired past times the master copy only amongst modern functionality. I painted the kitchen inwards a traditional, ecological pigment made of eggs, linseed crude oil too pigment. We desire this kitchen to alive every bit long every bit the previous one, for to a greater extent than than lxxx years!





How would you lot depict your interior style?

How would you lot depict your color palette?
Colourful Scandinavian - nosotros convey lots of colours inwards our describe solid only they are all quite muted too non likewise loud (very Scandinavian!) too piece of job good inwards combination amongst other colours.









What tips gain you lot convey for anyone looking to innovate color into their home?  
Dare to hold upwardly personal. Go for what you lot similar too don’t attention likewise much nigh trends. But it's e'er a adept thought to endeavor the color on a pocket-size component of the wall earlier you lot purchase a big bucket. Colours alter a lot depending on the low-cal inwards the room, only that's also the beauty amongst it! Our greyness color inwards the living room is shifting from warm to mutual frigidness depending on the fourth dimension of the twenty-four hr menses too the season.
