I have now spoken to the production company about the inköps list and it is there on the TV 3 website but very hidden.
I have asked if they can make it much more obvious so give them 24 hours to fix.

september 30, 2009
Now it is mid week and autumn has arrived, leaves are changing and filming will soon be finished which feels both good and bad. The day after filming ends you wonder what to do with yourself as the last 10 weeks have been so crazy.
This week is filling up a lot, thursday dinner with Elfa Lumi marketing department as we have designed some doors for the company, friday Hem & Villa Mässan at Älvsjö on the Elfa stand, friday night having dinner with good friends and Jane who plays Kath from the hit australian tv show Kath and Kim (am so excited) and saturday mässan again.
I have not done any research about going to Argentina but I guess we will have to do that on the plane.
there are lots of questions about inköps list from the new series and I will try and fix a good answer as soon as I can as well as answering all the other questions.
Glad T got some feed back about blogging, will keep the pressure up.

Good Grief
september 27, 2009
Well what do you know……..the boy has finally blogged!!!
I wonder if anyone canto see themselves in what T wrote. For me the funniest thing about yesterday was how many people liked red……but only on cushions.
This was the room setting we created where people could sit and discuss design questions.
Here is the poster for the event that was everywhere. Really clever as T & I are computer generated.
T ready to give people hell about white, fond väggs and open plan solutions.

Bo-x
september 27, 2009
Som sagt spenderade 7 timmar på bo-x igår och det var fanstastiskt kul - alltid lika roligt att träffa sina tittare och att få ge lite råd och tips. Det var också 2 elever från konstfack som hjälpte folk med lite designproblem, alltid bra att få flera synvinklar på saker och ting. jag lär mig alltid också en massa saker på dessa event, men man blir ganska trött av att “spotta” ur sig idéer hela tiden.
Vad har jag då lärt mig.
1. Nästan alla svenska hem som är lite nyare har öppen planlösning med köket som viktigaste inredningsdetalj.
2. Fondväggen lever och frodas fortfarande (suck)
3. Alla vardagsrum i nyare hus och lägenheter är typ 1 meter för smala - långsmala rum med köket i ena änden verkar vara det som gäller - Det går i princip bara att ha en soffa med schäslongdel………….. Kan det vara så att arkitekter är i maskopi med sofftillverkarna ????
4. Öppna spisar är alltid placerade på de mest omöjliga ställen - som om de ska vara husets enda värmekälla. Jag förstår skortstensproblematiken men hur f-n ska folk kunna möblera ????????
5. 95% av alla svenska hem är fortfarande vita - “vi målade vitt för att vi inte riktigt visste vad vi ville ha, och målar om när vi vet” Händer det någonsin ? tror inte det. Den största ytan som kan ge din inredning en unik och personlig prägel är väggarna, dessutom är färg det billigaste sättet att förändra, lägga en grund till en inredning, skapa en viss stämning e t c vitt är ingen färg……………..
6. Svenska sovrum är designade så att det bara går att få plats med en säng där - inget annat.
7. Många tror att färg på kuddar löser alla inredningsproblem - tyvärr om man inte har möbleringen ordnad rätt så spelar det ingen roll vad du har för kuddar - ditt hem funkar dåligt i alla fall.
8. att slå ut väggar och göra öppen planlösning är inte alltid lösningen på inredningsproblem utan skapar faktiskt sina egna problem - jag såg en massa ritningar på rum med borttagna väggar där man ändå har kök med köksbord, köksö, separat matsalsbord, vardagsrumssoffgrupp, tv hörna med en annan soffa samt, läshörn ……………allt i ett rum, snacka om rörigt - jag fattar att många inte får ihop det och gör allt vitt, med vita soffor, inga mattor, inga gardiner och en orgie i oljad ek på golv, möbler, bänksivor e t c.
9. Väldigt många har hållit på i flera år och kommer ingen vart med sin inredning, de frågar om råd men lyssnar helt enkelt inte - är det så att de egentligen inte vågar förändra?????
10. Alla möblerar utmed väggarna som om det inte fanns någon yta mitt i rummen ? Ingen vågar stäla en enda möbel framför en dörr eller ett fönster…………….. bara man lämnar tillräckligt med utrymme för att kunna gå in och ut genom dörren finns det ingen anledning att inte möblera framför den.
SNÄLLA, SNÄLLA TÄNK LITE MERE OKENVENTILNELLT…………

Bo-X
september 26, 2009
Just come back from an apperarance at Bo-X helping people with ideas for their homes. Met lots of great people as always but my goodness there were some ideas that came up all the time and they were;
Fond väggs
Black and white as a colour scheme
Red cushions as the only colour
I do not like curtains
Colour makes youe home dark
It really is as though some people have never watched our show. It was a long day but fun. P & P behaved wonderfully which was a relief as they can get a bit wild. T is now walking them on Gärdet as we are going to drink and dinner soon with a client
That is it from this end and have a good weekend.

Back from Mölle
september 24, 2009
Back now from Skåne and slept like a baby last night. A long week without its problems but the end result was great fun.
Here is T looking very relaxed…..most likely because he is not blogging!
This is the room we stayed in, very cool, stone wall in the bathroom and in the bedroom but it is always nice to get back to your own home.
If you are reading this Alex, nice to meet you, you seemed like a very nice 11 year old.
Once life has returned to normal it must be time for ugly friday.

Mölle
september 21, 2009
Mölle looking rather lovely at the moment. Sun going down and staying at Hotel Kullaberg which is great. Have a room overlooking the sea with a little terrace. Doors open and a wonderful breeze.Working hard as we have only 3 days to complete this project. The boys are having fun though so I am happy.Hotel has TV!, TV5 and danish TV3. Bit of a shame as tonights show was very funny.
The joys of caravaning
september 18, 2009
Believe me there are no joys of caravaning!!
It is odd that the people who enjoy this torture all seem to have beards, been 55-65 and often wear spectacles. So, if you fall into any of these catagories STOP reading.
Caravaning is a hideous thing to do, to be sitting in a badly designed plastic box in the middle of a field with family whom you possible do not like, cold, rain and misery, trying to cook on a tiny little spis and unable to even have a bath. The shower is so small you have to have one foot in the vacume toilet , dangerous when you consider the amount of noise it make. can you imagen the post card to you friends. “Up here in Rättvik, wet but at least I have been in hospital where it is warm having my foot re-attached.
If no one believes me look at these.
It is a design scheme of sorts…if you simply do not care if it looks good.
Arggghhhhhhhh………..who dreams up this stuff. There are frills on everything. Sleeping here would be like Night of the Living Dead……….but with frills.
Love the clash of the patterns…………and look, more frills……..and the door details……..and the niche. This is worse than a padded cell.
I do not want to say it but more frills. To think people actually attach these things to the back of their cars and then drive around in daylight. Must be the beards.
Happy caravanning people….frills.
This is so not my idea of fun. No wonder caravan people all like to stick together…it is also safer for the general public
2 weeks in this exciting interior, the frills must be a sign of serious cabin fever.
This though is something all together different, not in the best possible taste but at least there are no frills.
Have a good weekend, flying down to Mölle which should be nice.

Some quick answers…
september 18, 2009
Just some quick answers to your questions:
Britt Marie
”Men vad hände med öppnaspisen-hyllan i första programmet glömde ni av den?”
Not really sure what you mean, but if you mean the top shelf it’s still there but the massive pile of stuff that was loaded onto it has been packed into 8 flyttkartonger and hidden in the basement.
Kenneth
Thank you for your kind words. It was a real pleasure being able to help. Please give my best to your wife and of course those utterly adorable pigs. I think P & P simply fell in love, they have not been quite the same since.
Several people have asked about the wallpaper in episode one. It can be found in the inköpslista for the program, but to save you time here are the details:
Seabrook British Tropical, MBBT154654.
It can be bought at Måleributiken in Alvik.
Others want Tomas to write more. I have read him the riot act and he has promised to get better however I think this is unlikely to happen
