Magnus Marding
It's been a bit of a rough week (more on that on Monday), but I'd like to end of the week on a good note. Some photos from the portfolio of one of Sweden's most established international photographers will do quite nicely (and since we're on such a Swedish kick). "Though Magnus Marding is an international photographer in every aspect, there is also a very distinct Nordic touch - a certain cleanness, intimacy, simplicity and timeless yet modern beauty". Exactly.

i am from sweden actually and if I should be honest i didn't know that swedes were sooo good at design. Mustr say that I really love your blog, it's absolutely wonderful!
And I love that the top image features Australian photographer Tracey Moffat. I love her vibrant work.
Great photos. Hope your weekend is better than the week has been for you.

Loving the open spaces here!
good morning. first started telling you how much I like your blog, I'm a interior design student from barcelona and your blog really inspires me. Having said that, I like to create a section on my blog inspired yours by the Monday and pets on furniture but to create it with your permission, I would like to publish a post of introduction to some of your photos. you will let me?
Sorry about my English, i'm too embarrased.
So thanks a lot for your time. XOXO from barcelona.

I deeply heart anything Swedish and these shots are no exception! Such great style in every single one. Coincidentally, I talked about my Swedish grandmother and her amazing style on my own blog today :)
So sorry to hear it's been a rough week. I hope this weekend brings you relaxation and lots of laughs!
So incredibly beautiful. It really makes me proud to be a Scandinavian! I wish we could have snagged him at Domino...
Where on earth did that Mick jagger poster come from.. rad!
Hi, Love the vacuum cleaner in the third pic, made me laugh. Seems my house permantly has a vacumn cleaner somewhere in a room. Now when my husband complains about it I can just say I am on the cutting edge of design chic, haha, cheers Katherine
Katherine I'm using that excuse with my husband too!
That is what my kitchen will look like when it grows up. Wow.
Thank you Gema! We don't mind you using some of the photos from our blog as long as you credit us.
Thanks Katherine @ UrbanFlea!
I am dying to know where to get that tan leather and steel office chair! Beautiful! Any ideas?
Tracey Moffat gets around
I love this type of design. The lines are clean and yet the rooms look homey.
gia: the office chair is by Hans Wegner, was designed in 1955, and is still in production under the name PP502 by PP Furniture in Denmark.
Really glad to get such nice feedback on the images of which I have styled the most. Magnus is a great photographer and a joy to work with!
Very nice blog, too.
Best
Jacob
Guys, I found the picture of this wonderful desk and chair and traced it back to your site which appears to be the origin. Do you have any idea if/where/how this desk can be bought? I absolutely fell in love with it...
Thanks & brgds from Berlin
