Beautiful Brew
Scandinavian style at its best in this lovely downtown Stockholm apartment, located in what was once a brewery. Love the original factory windows—and that interesting ceiling, too.

Seaside Style
A stylish Danish house by the seaside is pretty much my ideal home, I'd have to say. Dating back to 1885, this one is a perfect blend of rustic original elements (those beams!) and clean modern details. Love. More here on Gravity Home.
