Beautiful torp (cottage)

Today's daydreams led me to Sköna Hem, a Swedish magazine with inspirational and aspirational home decor, perfect for soft house porn.  Check out this spread on the beautiful little cottage in the woods north of Stockholm.  It's tiny, only 40 square meters or 430 square feet, and it's off in the woods in Broby close to a lake called Yngaren.
Check out the dining room with its old fashioned charm
The living room is adorable yet hits on all the latest trendy colors (soft blue and rose, see Pantone's Rose Quartz and Serenity color of the year here).
Don't you love the oven? The kitchen is the only room without wallpaper.  Love it!
The whole place reminds me of some of my favorite Swedish illustrators, and the feeling of being hidden away in the woods which is a very acute longing in many Swedes.  Just being with nature in Sodermanland would be a dream.  It's for sale on svenskfast.se
