London Steals the Spotlight

Move over Paris and Milan—Europe has a new interior design capital. For me, that crown now belongs to London.

Just one week after the spectacular display of floral artistry at the RHS Flower Show in Chelsea, I had the privilege of attending another tour de force, this time in the realm of interior design. The WOW! House at Design Centre in Chelsea Harbour is a bold, unapologetic celebration of refined maximalism. Staged by the UK’s most acclaimed interior designers in collaboration with leading luxury brands, the show is a masterclass in design storytelling. The aesthetic is distinctively British—charming, eccentric, and deeply sophisticated.

RHS Flower Show in Chelsea: What's in Bloom?

My apologies for the brief detour into gardening—but as a passionate gardening enthusiast, I can’t resist! Nature and the garden are constant sources of inspiration in my work, so I feel compelled to share a glimpse of what I believe is the plant world’s finest performance. Here’s my list of the most striking perennials spotted in this year’s show.

Color Takes Center Stage

As someone deeply inspired by my Swedish garden, I expected subtlety at the Chelsea Flower Show—soft pastels and restrained palettes.

Instead, I was met with a bold, breathtaking celebration of color. Rich purples, vivid pinks, deep burgundies, and bright oranges filled the gardens with energy and joy. It was a striking departure from the minimalist tones I know—vibrant, imaginative, and utterly unforgettable.

A Little Love Letter to a Venetian Textile Company

The first time I came across handpainted wallpapers was when I was a young art history student, visiting a castle in Bavaria, South of Germany.

The Beauty of the Bug

I love gardening. One of the most amazing bugs in my garden is the Strimlus, the sun-loving striped beauty that seems to like my hydrangea “Annabelle”. Strimlus is also the Landscape Insect of my home county, Sodermanland.

Story

An Afternoon by Ponte Vecchio

The restaurant was so elegantly furnished, in such way that usually falls into my liking; with simple yet uncompromising elegance: White perfectly mangled linen tablecloths, spotless silverware, shiny crystals and bougainvillea climbing on the pergola. And not least the furniture that were wrought into perfection
