There's a common assumption that minimalist design isn't compatible with busy family life, but the stunning Swedish home of Johanna Haglund is proof that it can be. Johanna is the founder of Design Of, which makes understated, versatile and long-lasting furniture from solid steel, and she and her husband designed and built the house themselves . . .
Colour inspiration with Crown Paints x Elle Decoration
[Advertisement – this is a paid partnership with Crown Paints, but all words and opinions are my own] One of my favourite-ever collaborations was working with Crown Paints to style a room set demonstrating my personal take on colour. So, when the Crown team got in touch to ask if I’d like to take part in another project, this time putting my own spin on an exciting new range . . .
New designs from NORR11
I was originally planning to include the latest launches from Danish brand NORR11 in my round-up from the Stockholm Furniture Fair, but as soon as I saw the press images I knew they had to have a post of their own! Created by stylist Pernille Vest and photographer Heidi Lerkenfeldt, they were shot at the J.F. Willumsen Museum in Frederikssund, north of Copenhagen . . .
New finds from the Stockholm Furniture Fair 2020
I've already shared two of my favourite exhibitions from Stockholm Design Week - 'The Sculptor's Residence' and 'The Archive' - so today I have a round-up of interesting product launches from the Stockholm Furniture Fair, which takes place at the same time. The largest trade show in the Nordic design world, it brings together more than 700 brands . . .
The Archive – a showcase of Japanese & Scandinavian design
I have another inspiring exhibition from Stockholm Design Week to share with you today, this time from Japanese brand Ariake. Each year it teams up with like-minded companies to take over a historic location somewhere in the city, and its previous efforts - 'A Quiet Reflection' and 'The Phoenix Palace' - were highlights of Design Weeks 2018 and 2019 . . .
‘The Sculptor’s Residence’ by Norm Architects, Dux & Menu
What a busy month of travel I've had. I'd barely landed back from my trip to Finnish Lapland before I was off again, this time to Stockholm for its annual Design Week. I visit every year if I can and it's always inspiring, with more than 400 exhibitions and events across the city, as well as the huge Stockholm Furniture & Light Fair taking place on its outskirts . . .

![[AD - paid partnership] If you’ve been following me for any length of time, you might be aware that I’ve long been worried about the damaging effects of indoor air pollution. But you might also know that I’ve found an effective way to tackle it thanks to the stylish and sustainable @briiv.natural air purifier, which has the air-cleansing power of 3,043 houseplants and produces 80.57% less CO2 over its lifetime than any other model on the market. We've used ours every day for the past three years, so I was delighted when Briiv asked me to try out their latest model, the Briiv 2 Pro.
The Briiv 2 Pro has all the features of the original, plus some clever extras: an AI-drive sensor that monitors air quality in real time, and a setting known as 'Canary Mode' that can activate it automatically whenever this drops beneath a certain level. The latter has been a game-changer for us in recent weeks, springing into life to deal with the harmful particles from traffic and nearby wood-burners long before we notice them seeping into our home. I'm sure it will be very useful come hay-fever season, too.
There's a full review on the blog, but in short, it's a great product that really does make a difference!
