Travel Tips for Skåne in South Sweden · Happy Interior Blog

A several weeks back I embarked on a superb trip to Skåne, the southern tip of Sweden, subsequent an invitation from the area tourism board Stop by Skåne. I was energized due to the fact the only issue I understood about Skåne so significantly was its greatest metropolis: Malmö. I traveled a couple many years ago to discover the metropolis and its vivid design and style scene. This time my mission was comparable, but broader. I was likely to check out Malmö, Trelleborg and Helsingborg and go to the new style pageant, the Southern Sweden Layout Days.

Tiny did I know how beautiful and picturesque Skåne is. My 1st times I used in the vicinity of Trelleborg, in the southern idea of the area. It is there in which you can truly go to the southernmost point of Sweden and acquire in the fresh new sea breeze and the inexperienced landscape. In fact in this season the landscape is all eco-friendly and yellow with rapeseed fields all to the horizon.

What I liked about the Trelleborg area was its shut proximity to Malmö, and nonetheless you felt like definitely out at the countryside – even though it was a mere 20 minutes push by vehicle from the metropolis. I have three private highlights from that location: Slättarps Gård, a farm-turned-principle retail store in the midst of fertile fields with a good restaurant the chic and new Weinbergs Lodge with a fantastic restaurant and Axatorpsgården, a dreamy Mattress & Breakfast wherever I was keeping (but I will inform you much more about this a person is a individual site submit).

Malmö was its excellent self as regular – this city sort of mixes Swedish and Danish vibes, yet it also feels very cosmopolitan. And sunny days are the best in town – it is as if all people is outside having fun with the sunshine and gentle temperatures. My mission was to go and visit this year’s Southern Sweden Style and design Times, which are scattered close to the metropolis in different spots. In in between I essential to end in 1 of my favorite minor dining places in town: Noir. And just soon after a superior bite & vino, I stopped at Olsson & Gerthel, a shop packed with Scandinavian style and design that often can make my coronary heart skip a beat.

The rest of the day I spent discovering the imaginative scene and styles from southern Sweden. I beloved the colorful and playful types of Swedish Ninja as effectively as the fashionable outside home furnishings vary of Nola. Talking of out of doors (and indoor why not): the wood bench by designer Marc Hoogendijk would be unquestionably my selection if I experienced area!

Another fantastic discovery was the get the job done of young Swedish Artist Elsa Unnegård. She showcased a stool designed of burnt wood that looks like driftwood, but is in reality sculpted by her. I discovered it quite sculptural, pretty artsy – still practical, as you can seriously use it as a stool. Also I cherished to see a mix of natural designs, components, colors as opposed to functional, fashionable home furnishings that stems from what they phone ‘technomimicry’, mimicking and trying to get inspiration in technological styles. I noticed some plant alternatives as perfectly – of course. Skandiform showcased the Allé Corner room dividers that are in essence smart plant stands to composition spaces with plant divisions.

Also for people of you thinking of Malmö as a pleasant journey destination (and I persuade you to include it your vacation bucket list): remaining in the Duxiana Lodge is a fantastic answer: you are tremendous central and you will sleep like a little one in their incredible beds!

The previous portion of my Skåne trip introduced me to Helsingborg, a 50 minutes generate north of Malmö. The town is vibrant and has a excellent shoreline to delight in (windy) walks, cute espresso areas like the Bruket Kaffebar, remarkable dining places like the Sillen & Makrillen overlooking the Öresund, as effectively as a quite funky resort: the Vault Resort!

But when in Helsingborg, I persuade you to generate out to the bordering countryside, as the nature is beautiful and the soil in this article has a whole lot of clay which resulted in one particular of Sweden’s oldest and most traditional pottery factories: the Wallåkra Stoneware Manufacturing unit. There I experienced the awesome opportunity to get back again to the potter’s wheel after so lots of several years and toss my personal minor piece of the incredibly normal Skåne clay. I am curious to see the small bud vase after it’s fired and arrives in this article in Berlin. Shut by you can also quit at the ‘Tomatenshus’, a tomato increasing farm, that grows very delicious tomatoes. And yes, I bought hungry there way too – so just following doorways is the restaurant Skip Alice Kroog & Delikatesser and their signature dish is: tomato pie! Indeed, go for it! Oh indeed!!

From Helsingborg I said goodbye to Skåne by taking the ferry and environment above to Helsingør in Denmark. But that is another story to be informed. For now I hope you liked the little tour of Skåne and its vibrant spots and layout scene. See you soon at the Axatorpsgården Mattress & Breakfast here on the web site!
