The family home of Filippa Knutsson, fashion designer behind Swedish label Filippa K , seems to elude a relaxed, toned-down elegance, just like her clothes. Although I generally have a soft spot for something a little quirky, there's such a stylish, warm and inviting feel to this pad. You can enlarge the photos by clicking on them. Have a lovely first weekend of February!
First of all, I absolutely adore your blog! You choose apartments to present that really match my taste :) Filippa's house is beautiful (I wish I had so much space for myself and my family) but what is missing in most of the appartments/houses is books. I always look for bookcases on the pictures of interiors as for me books are the soul of a house. Interiors withour books are a bit empty and... yes, soulless. No gadgets, no furniture, no objects at all will substitute books.
I totally agree with chihiro. I actually take a magnifying glass sometimes to see if I can read the titles on the spines. It's fun when I see some of the same books I have on someone else's shelves.
Solange - I agree, her place gives me a warm feeling! Have a lovely weekend!
Magi - Kiitoksia samoin :)
Merja - Tuo avaruus on jotain mitä minäkin ihailen täältä pikkuhuoneisesta torpastamme käsin :) Ja muistelen pienoisella haikeudella entistä korkeakattoista huoneistoamme...
Chihiro - Thank you for your kind words! Glad you've enjoyed the posts. You are so spot on about the lack of books, I hadn't really thought about it consciously before! I agree that a home isn't really a home without books. Perhaps I should devote a post entirely to the way people house their books!
All the Best - I am very flattered! Welcome back any time!

Very beautiful the whole set of picture exude peace and charm, even her children look calm and well behaved. Very inspiring. Have a nice weekend. Hugs Lynn xx
Oh my God, Sanctuary, you'll have a difficult task (but of course nothnig seems to be difficult for you, judging by your interior design skills :)). There are whole books about "living with books" (e.g. http://www.amazon.co.uk/At-Home-Books-Booklovers-Libraries/dp/0500286116/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=gateway&qid=1201898249&sr=8-1). I have lots of books at home but unfortunately not enough place to store them all nicely...
hi there!
what lovely, lovely pictures. I would love to have her house, so big, airy, spacious. Very inspiring. Wish you a nice weekend!
Solange :-)
Mukavaa viikonloppua ja pidetään YHTEYTTÄ yllä1
Ooh, tuo keittiö. Mahtavan iso.
Ja tuo kakluuni vanhempien makuuhuoneessa, kerrassaan upea.

Your blog is absolutely beautiful! I will add you to my blog roll and come back often!

Ihanan raikas ja valoisa koti!
This house is wonderful, so bright and beautiful. The designer's kids are absolutely adorable!
