EMMAS DESIGNBLOGG

Björklund & Wingqvist is one of Stockholm's oldest and best stocked wallpaper shops. It is the place to shop for wallpapers, as they have a huge range of wallpapers, paints and fabrics from the best design houses, from Osbourne & Little and Cole & Son to Cath Kidston and Designers Guild. Of course, they can also offer a big range of Swedish manufacturers and designers, my favourites being Sandberg, Defyra and Decor Maison. Since I don't have any wallpaper in my home (I prefer simple white paint), I have only been in contact with them professionally through my jobs as a styling assistant, but I can tell you that they were always very accomodating and generous!

Last week I was invited to come to the press show of their brand new, huge department store outside Stockholm. It was built in an old factory, and the bottom floor is now brimming with wallpaper, while the first floor houses 7 professionally decorated rooms to get your inspiration flowing, and also shelf after shelf with interior details to finish off your newly wallpapered room!

Here are some snapshots of the store:
