I have to admit, when I was little I dreamed of owning a big house – one with a huge garden, containing a tennis court and pool (preferably with a waterslide going from my bedroom to the pool)! Did you have similar ideas? The dream has thankfully faded over the years! And after building our little 30 m2 / 323 f2 cabin, I truly understood that the tiniest of spaces can feel the cosiest – and our family is at its happiest and most content. 

If I were to move home today, I’d be looking for something fairly small with beautiful historical features, and I’d also take note of how the light falls in each room. In fact, this Swedish duplex apartment is pjust the ticket!  

Granted, it’s by no means small (it measures 101 m2 / 1087 f2), but with a ceiling height of 4.35 metres, beautiful wood beams dating back to 1912 and lots of cosy nooks, it has everything I love! And Idon’t get me started on the wonderful array of very cool furniture, art and accessories too! Did I also mention it’s located in an area called ‘Midsommarkransen’ (meaning ‘midsummer crown’)? Be still, beating heart!

How lovely! I’ve been going through the pictures so many times eying up all the vintage pieces, lamps (does anyone know where the table lamp in the kitchen comes from), funky chairs and design classics. 

Is there anything that stands out to you?

Have a happy mid-week – I hope the sun is shining where you are too!
