Anna Malmberg is a well-known Swedish photographer. She grew up in the north of Sweden, surrounded by forests and lakes, with ghosts and spirits as her closest neighbors.She started experimenting as a photographer at age 14, because it was the only way she had to create a bridge between fairy tales and reality,timeless fantasy and present time. It was there, where her style was born. Personally i like the totally artistic, bohemian and nonchalant style she has , with her love for earthy colours and the choice for natural, ecological materials.Her house is decorated with a monochrome palette and filled mostly with vintage pieces so her son’s room could not resist the same dreamy feeling which goes straight to our heart. https://northernsisters.se/inspiration/annamalmberg/the-doll-house/

Although their projects are mostly commercial I personally admire their work so I thought we should see a small sample of it.. Located in South London’s Gipsy Hill, the brief from The Capital Pub Company was to “Create a Home Away from Home”.

I have been watching Ifigenia’s work for many years and I would say it is getting better and better with time. Ifigenia and her husband, Eutychis Andreadakis, decided in 2008 to change careers. After 20 years in the fashion industry, she as a stylist and fashion director in women’s magazines and Eutychis as a fashion photographer, they decided that they wanted to work on something new and more personal. Their shared leisure time with furniture transformation inspired them to set up a furniture renovation workshop in Lagonissi, near Athens and actually have the chance to make their hobby a profession, while giving our old furniture a second chance.

Adding to all of the…
