When the kids decide.
My nephew, Simeon, and his friend Walter wanted to revisit @livrustkammaren ,The Royal Historical Museum, with his godmother @waesenberg and me.
A great experience and a lot of fun with two rascals as guides.
The afternoon ended, of course, with an obligatory pizza.

New design at Svenskt Tenn.
Designer Monica Förster has made two new beautiful tables for Svenskt Tenn.
Handmade in every way. ’Woven’ in Swedish vegetable tanned leather in a saddlery outside Stockholm.
The edges are hand-painted in a bright blue colour.
The tray is made of polished stainless steel.
Super elegant and timeless.

At @super_____vox you find a podcast I did with Monica a few weeks ago.

Going home.
The last meeting of the day was on the south side of Stockholm, which meant I could take the ferry home.
It has been a while since I enjoyed the beautiful view of Lake Mälaren.

After seven months they are back.
Our koi carps have been resting over the winter and today they came back to our pond.
The temperature is now above 10 degrees and they all seem very happy to be back ’home’.

His Majesty the King 80 years.
Honored to be part of the Svenskt Tenn delegation that honored King Carl XVI Gustaf on his upcoming 80th birthday.
A mirror with a pewter laurel wreath, designed by Estrid Ericson in 1941, was presented by CEO @vatsila , @perahlden and myself.
A much appreciated gift by both our beautiful Queen Silvia and the King himself.

Barcelona.
Fundació Joan Miró -
THE place to experience Miró’s art.
(images 1-4)
The Barcelona Pavilion was designed in 1929 by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich as the German Pavilion for the Barcelona International Exhibition. Rebuilt in 1983 on the original site.
An absolutely stunning modernist building made of the most exquisite materials.

One of the most amazing buildings I have ever seen.
Sagrada Familia.
For almost 150 years, the construction of this incomparable basilica by Antoni Gaudí has been ongoing.
This year, a hundred years after Gaudí’s death, the latest tower was inaugurated, 172.5 meters high.
But the construction of the basilica is still not finished. It will take a few more years before it is finished.
An absolutely amazing experience.
