Cay Bond telling tendencies at Ett Hem



Cay Bond telling her interpretation of what the new tendencies&trends will give to fashion and interiors during 2018. The headline is:  It´s all about art

Cay Bond lectures at Ett Hem, the private townhouse from 1910 turned eclectic hotel with the the help of the interior design intelligence of Ilse Crawford and owner Jeanette Mix.  

Ett Hem is Swedish meaning A Home. As you see in the photos the feeling of a private home is maintained and is part of the the alluring charm of this aesthetic homey house. 

Why I talk about the private home type feeling of Ett Hem is due to my Q answered by Cay Bond in a video below being : How do you show that your home is updated according to the tendencies&trends of 2018 best? 

The theme and headline of the tendencies 2017 was Revolt. See my post from last year here. This year it is : It´s all about art - so naturally a part of the lecture is given to recommendations of exhibits and museums like Musée des Arts Décoratifs now abriviated to MAD in Paris where now Martin Margielas years at Hermès is celebrated with a exhibit that started in Anvers. 

The secret gardens of Christian Dior is on Cay Bond´s list of to do´s as well as reading Steve Pinker´s  book Enlightenment Now published this year as well his sadly departed colleague Swedish Hans Rosling´s book Factfulness that was recommended by Bill Gates as well. 


The Utrecht chairs by Gerrit T. Rietveld for Cassina from 1935  in stitched green wool is the stand out furniture at Ett Hem supplying that personal style  that I just love!


To my great surprise and joy I met my very good friend Johan Hellström at the Cay Bond Lecture. 




Cay at the head of the table. We are 10 people that have listened to the lecture and now lunch is waiting and discussions run high. 



Lovely set up and attention to detail as usual at Ett Hem. The handmade plates from Birgitta Watz are  gems in my eyes. 


Flowers, bread and butter enhances life, don´t you think? 




Skrei cod in a grilled (!)  cream sauce with  asparagus and green peas tastes so good I need to try this grilled cream first thing. The hand with the tasteful ring belongs by Lisa that is one of the  designers at Baumgarten Di Marco that uses the leftovers from the diamond industry to create their jewelry. Lisa is the one saying good bye to Cay in the video below as well. 
Not only is the lecture inspiring but the guests are as well. 




The cosy sofa corner is located in the conservatory right beside the dining table where we take our tasty lunch.

Now time has come for my Question to Cay of : How do you show that your home is updated according to the tendencies&trends of 2018 best? This is her answer in Swedish since I forgot that I had decided to ask in english...




Feeling inspired and filled with new thoughts and ideas I will be able to share with you. Tack återigen Cay for en härligt inspirerande eftermiddag på Ett Hem. 

Stay in touch

Jimmy
