Wrapping excellence

The art of wrapping is truly something that Chanel understands. I received this parcel today and it's pure joy to unpack a box like this. Every detail is considered and even if it's an easy trick to make customers feel special they have really succeed! Also since I'm an Art Director and fan of lovely packages generally this one really made me smile. Happy weekend!

Colours of an island

Last weekend we went to Gotland the largest island of Sweden. We went to the northern part called Fårö. The colour scale was just beautiful. The pale grays and whites on stones and rocks, the green and yellow lichens and the small treehouses in different browns. Not to forget the blue sky and sea. Nature is a great source of inspiration.

New week!

As you might know I spend part of the week painting. I love to paint horses but also abstract motifs. You kan find these ones at Urban Living, reopening in Kivik this easter and soon also online. You can find more of my art att mialinnman.se  Wish you a great new week! Photo Mia Linnman

Ugly is nice

Is this vase ugly or just lovely? Of course that's up to each individual to decide. I think the weirdness   and the fact that it's a human hand, not a machine, that shaped it makes it beautiful. The non perfect is the most interesting if you ask me. Photo: Mia Linnman

Inspiration

To be inspired is one of my favorite feelings. Those days when you're out of it, it will probably come if you just get started, don't wait for it to happen. Sometimes you get it just by looking at something or meet with someone you like. I bought this magazine only because of the cover. The colors, the layout, the model and the composition is just perfect. I can't say much about the written content since I know about ten Spanish words ... The table above is one of my own designs that I will tell you about later. Happy weekend! Photo: Mia Linnman. 

Long time no see

Hi guys! Yes, I guess I have written that headline before. My blog activity has been just as the tulips above, out of glow, inspiration and energy for a long, long time. Suddenly I felt inspiration, that picking up the camera, shooting some pics made me happy. I hope that feeling will stay and that I'll meet you soon again. Photo Mia Linnman
