I wish I lived here: chasing the light in Gothenburg

I’ve really noticed the darker evenings and the sun setting sooner. It calls for candlelit suppers, reading books in the comfort of the sofa and getting out all the cosy blankets and throws. My boyfriend thinks I have a bit of an obsession with blankets at the moment. I very nearly bought two in one week, but instead settled for one gorgeous recycled denim throw from the brilliant By Mölle.

Seriously check them out – Netherlands-based, they only use natural materials, such as undyed Scandinavian wool from Gotland sheep, soft yarn from recycled jeans and linen that is produced in one of the oldest flax mills in Lithuania. They’re pure, beautifully crafted designs that will last the test of time.

I can imagine them looking perfectly in place in this light home. I love this time of year when you get the long shadows and bolds flashes of sunlight that make patterns on the walls. This home looks so bright and airy, especially with that balcony door open and the curtains swinging in the breeze. So many perfect natural textures, light colours and earthy hues – I wish I lived here.
