I wish I lived here: an eclectic old shop in Malmo

How charming is this converted old shop in Malmo? I wish I lived here, with its tall ceilings, mismatched mid-century and modern furniture (spot Aalto 60 Stool imitations), and cool white kitchen. I’m also a sucker for piles of magazines and gallery walls, a constant in my own home – and I guess you may be able to tell why I like the ‘C’ poster here?!

I also like the idea of painting a wall half in one colour, here in a lovely light sky blue. It gives just a hint of colour for colourphobes like myself, while also giving a feeling of intimacy and cosiness in an airy, bright, tall-ceilinged space. Likewise, with the thin strip of dark grey tiles in the kitchen and dining space…
