Green is probably the most popular kitchen colour in Scandinavia right now – and there’s no denying how calming and beautiful it is. But it’s also nice to discover a kitchen which goes against the tide – like this one with ochre cabinets. In fact, the entire apartment in SOFO (South of Folkungagatan), in the hipster district of Södermalm, Stockholm has been decorated in a beautiful, unique palette. Think earthy blue, dusty pink (similar to Farrow & Ball’s popular ‘setting plaster‘) and a dampened ochre in the children’s bedroom (could be Jotun Lady ‘Cashmere‘ or ‘Hummus‘)- a perfect lesson in how to create a ‘röd tråd’ (red thread) throughout your home using colour.
Oh, and keep a look out for the castle bed and koala mustard wallpaper in the bedroom! So cute!
Really beautiful – and such wonderful use of colour.
Is there anything that stood out to you?
Would you consider having this yellow, blue and pink combination in your home? or perhaps a kitchen with ochre cabinets?

Last week in Sweden was all about the ‘Studenten’ i.e., when students graduate from ‘gymnasium’ (sixth form college / high school). The week was peppered with parties in which sailor-clad graduates celebrated with family and friends until the early hours. Needless to say, everyone’s still in recovery mode this Monday! But still it was a wonderful week!
Do you have special traditions in your country for those graduating from high school?
