The big kitchen reveal

To start with, let me first show you a picture where you can see the final result of the kitchen, which I mentioned during the last chapter. We designed this together with A.S. Helsingö and - Tada. So beautiful.

Filling the home with lamps

Let us then proceed with picking up where we ended the last chapter, by talking about the lamp “Floatation” by Ingo Maurer. It did arrive and it won't be currently hanging in our ceiling if it wasn't for Jimmy's engineer brain. To get it up was like solving an advanced mathematic formula, but the end result is so worth it.

Another lamp that's also been delivered during this time is the iconic floor lamp “Orbital”, designed by Ferruccio Laviani in 1992, which we bought via Artilleriet. However, once we received it we realised that it wasn't completely right for the dining room so instead I took it to our office – where it turned out to fit perfectly. Even though it wasn't perfect for our apartment, I still want to show it to you.

When it came to our hallway lamp, we chose the “Matin” model designed by Inga Sempé from Hay in a white.

The bedroom is coming along

The wardrobes for our bedroom are also from A.S Helsingö, and we went for the same doors as the ones we chose for the kitchen. When it came to the colour for the wardrobes, we decided on a “Ivory beige” which turned out so warm yet calm, the perfect match to the dove blue walls.

Our headboard in the bedroom is currently in the progress of being made but the plan is for it to be a wavy, soft frame in a red and beige striped fabric. I can't wait to show you once it's finished. The USM Haller sideboard, also bought via Artilleriet, is now in place in the dining room. We went for the black option but are also thinking to switch it to the beige one instead, which we have ordered for the office, to achieve a warmer feeling in the room. We do, however, love it in the black colour so stay tuned...

The apartment is falling more and more in to place, and I am very much looking forward to, in the next chapter, show you a better overview of it. Until next time.
