Swedish design rocks!


Swedish design is truly cool and good design just seems to be much more pervasive here than in the U.S. We went to a department store today called Ahlens, sort of like a Macy's, and I was blown about by the coolness level at this middle-of-the-road store. Take the patterns on the fabric in these pictures. I mean, you can't even find this kind of thing at Britax in downtown SF. I'm especially loving the kids home decor and clothing -- not a Disney princess or cheesy flower pattern in site! Just bright, graphic and fun prints that adults actually might enjoy being around.
Already plotting what I'm going to bring back on the boat :)
