Spring light

Spring ligth is ruthless, but since Morran has no flaws that's no problem for her.

African music treasures. Come on, let's dance!

Gothenburg

Gothenburg (where I live) is situated by the sea. Wikipedia says Gothenburg - Not to be confused with Gotham city. I do that mistake a lot :))

Maria is the guest blogger over at Design Sponge this week.

Take a look at this video if you like Marcel Dzama (found through, the ever inspiring, Book by its cover).

2009 Calendar

Hello there, I hope you are having a good weekend. Over here there are more colours than the other day and right now the sun is shining.

This will be the last time I post about my 2009 calendar, I promise. It's on sale :)
Maybe some of you like to know there is only 2 of the Divert print left!

More music, Eleni Mandell.

Today the world was monochrome

On my way to the studio. Even with snow on the ground it feels like spring. It's not a winter landscape, the snow is just laying on top of it, on top of waiting sprouts. The birds are singing spring songs, a little bit colourful than usuall.

A little info.

I have to say Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds is getting better and better by the years.

Back from Stockholm/Karin

It's always so nice to meet Karin and a pleasure to spend time in her workshop/gallery/shop (and to meet Josephine, her "assistant"). It's a wonderful place. Even though the snow was laying on the ground outside it felt like spring with all the plants around the shop.

I find it very satisfying to make something in a new material that I'm not used to. I'm always happy about the result, you know like when you can't speak a language but learned a word or two.

Once again, a link to the amazing Sandra Backlund.

Typography and signs

Just a short strip of one street. The street with the best signs, 2a Långgatan. The green one is my favorite.

I'm off to Karin (Modish Biz Tips: Do What You Love), to work on our collaboration.

Remember this? I might have found him, Richard. Here you can see some of his friends.

A fantastic illustrator - Rokuro Taniuchi!

And of course - colour.

Sun/light and shadows

It's fantastic what a little light and sun can do for your spirit!

Black and white

I know, not everything is black and white, love and hate. There's a lot of shades between them. The first picture is from an installation by Nina Zetterquist at Konstepidemin.

Black and white by Jon MacNair, found through the Lumper.

I pretend

First of all I want to tell you, if you've missed it in my last post, my calendar for 2009 is on sale in my web-shop!

I pretend it is more spring than it actually is. It works a little bit.

I would love to have a few spring flowers in some of these vessels.

Did I ever post this link? It is like spring and pretending somehow.

And a tuesday goes by

Morran is so used to getting photographed, so when I tell her to jump up on a stone she just jumps up and sits down and sort of pose :) She's such a sweetheart.

Alexandra came up in the studio for a fika, with an invite to her show opening the 21st of march at gallery Kaustik.
