Elle Interiör

There is so much inspiration packed in the pages of Elle Interiör Sweden but if you're not lucky enough to have access to their issues the website is the next best thing. I find so many great links, ideas and trend reports there and I don't even read Swedish... but it's so visual and easy enough to navigate that you really don't need to. Here are a few recent photographs in Elle Interiör, I like the colors in these photos and the gorgeous au natural wood trend that they are spotlighting...

When I think about it, how many decorating magazines do I really read anyway, even when they are in English? Sad to admit but it's true, I skip most of the articles or trend reports but I do scan them and if the home or product is of someone I know then I'll read it... otherwise not. Is it bad for a writer to admit this publicly? Should I feel ashamed of this? Well whether it is or not, there I've said it and it cannot be taken back: I only read text in design magazines by either a writer whom I know to be engaging, informative, conversational and/or witty (a few columns from Domino come to mind), or I just skim and drool at the photos and read the bylines and photo captions. I guess everyone is different though. But I will say this, there are exceptions -- when Selvedge arrives, I gobble it down word-by-word. I read each article twice. It's so well written and poetic in some ways, it's a word fest and extremely informative...
