Clean graphics paired with bold typography and French phrases add a worldly touch to what could pass as vintage prints. Can't you just picture the Do Re Mi print hanging in a 1950s high school music room?

Location: Paris, France

I'm Swedish, and moved to Paris six years ago. I have a job that I love in interior design, which is great, but frustrating sometimes when you're constantly surrounded by beautiful things and apartments you can't afford in real life.

I'm a fashion blogger, designer and interior architect and I recently did took some pics of my very little home in Paris — it's a 26 square meter (280 square feet!) studio where I had to find creative solutions to using the space. And I did! We have a little bedroom, a huge wardrobe, a desk to work at home, a dining space and a great living room.
