Kungsleden


I took some photographs for an architect firm,
Ankar Arkitekter. A rather ambitious office interior design for a real estate agency called Kungsleden. It's located at Medborgarplatsen in Stockholm in a building looking fairly boring from the outside, but with a nice atrium once you get inside. The office is very spacious, and must have costed quite a lot to build with several custom made details. The Barcelonas are expensive. That much I know.

Full circle... almost


I made an illustration about building an extension to your house, or rather the economics involved in doing so. This is what I first came up with:
Utbyggnad_C
While nobody thought there was anything wrong with it, apparently it was too similar to this (which I also made for the same issue):
spis_smoke_RGB

Well, back to the drawing board, and out came this rather different little piece. It's a cottage extended into a chateau:

Utbyggnad_B

This on the other hand nobody liked at all... If the problem is small the fix should be small too, so I remade the first one into this:

Utbyggnad
End of story. Everybody's happy.

December and Bohem


I have been working a bit with a couple of "one shots" from Forma called 'December' and 'Bohem'. December is a christmas special, obviously, and Bohem is targeted for urban people. Hopefully they will go well.

Eames TV-fire


Made for Forma, illustrating alternatives to real fire. How looking at a fire on TV could be seen as an alternative is beyond me, but at least the
Eames looks nice. In all honesty, the article is more on the subject of alternative *burning* fires. Gel or gasoline burning in a smoke free way, which isn't a bad idea if you haven't got a real fire place.

Dream couch


Dromsoffa

Readers where asked to design the couch of their dreams, which would in turn be manufactured for real by Lammhult. Quite nice idea for reader input. I didn't want to lead anyone into any specific ideas, so I made this sort of abstract instead. looks a bit like pre pop-art...
