Which Stockholm Style Do You Prefer?

We’ve featured some hot Stockholm apartments lately and it’s now time for this weekends poll! Question is: which of these trendy styles do You prefer? White or boho? The Stockholm White Style needs no further introduction I think, one extremely well-represented almost iconic example is the Rapace’s apartment. Scandinavian all-white with an (industrial) edge. Alongside, we have the Stockholm Bohemian Style, of which this apartment, and this, are eminent examples. Two main characteristics are the bold colour choices ( dark painted walls) and a personal mix of things, often vintage finds, and a retro-touch.

Which Trendy Stockholm style do you prefer?

  • Boho (53%, 31 Votes)
  • White (47%, 27 Votes)

Total Voters: 58

Sunday Evening Update: Wow, that’s an interesting result! 55 votes: 29 for boho, 26 for white. Even Steven! Trendey readers are split between favouring the Scandinavian white edgy style and the darker bohemian.Or, you fancy them both and blind picked :) Either way, this shows both white Scandi and boho-styles are of interest to you. And that’s great, because we like both styles.

Is IKEA’s latest ad genius or just plain peculiar?

Did you spot the news about IKEA’s latest UK ad yesterday? If not, you’ve got to take a look at the video below! IKEA has conducted an experiment which consists in releasing a hundred cats inside the Wembley (London) superstore at night just to see what they get up to…  The idea of the experiment is to find out which furniture made the cats happy (ehh..hrrmm….) and to use the footage in the latest UK ad campaign (read more here at The Guardian). The finished ad premiers tomorrow on ITV1 during X Factor so if you’re UK based have a look and see what you think! Has IKEA lost the plot or not? Have your say in this weekend’s poll!

Has IKEA lost the plot or not?

  • Brilliant idea. IKEA rules the world. (53%, 18 Votes)
  • I don't care, but those cats are sooo cute! (18%, 6 Votes)
  • IKEA has clearly lost the plot. (15%, 5 Votes)
  • Seen it before, this is what happens when you combine Swedish quirkiness with British eccentricity (9%, 3 Votes)
  • Nice idea, but a bit peculiar... (5%, 2 Votes)

Total Voters: 34

Update: It is now Sunday night and this weekend’s poll is closing. We can conclude that the jury’s verdict, i.e. trendey reader’s opinion, is:

An eclectic style (48 %) that can be defined as global jungle arty fart (35 %). Hah, good choices! Only very few of you had no idea or thought it was just plain ugly or, for that matter, an amazing style vision from the future…In the compartment other, we have the suggestion vintage modern style (although with an uncommonly strong pink). Thanks everyone for participating..! This was fun yes? – look out for another poll shortly :)

Any Ideas for Half Round Windows?

If we are very lucky, we will shortly be owners of a 3 bedroom flat with two pieces of big-sized half round windows. The last couple of days I’ve been pondering what kind of curtain styles (or decorations) would compliment these types of windows. The pic isn’t great, but from the estate agent’s photo they look like this. If you were *forced* to hang some kind of fabric on them, how’d you do it?
