Angelica Svanström
Angelica, who goes by the name angelickpicture on instagram, is the busy mother of two and the photographer who together with us designed a wallpaper with beautiful flying swans.
A clear vision
Angelica had a clear vision of big birds and to combine it with an existing design from from Perswall that she had fell in love with. Together with Perswall, Angelica has adjusted the colours to match her walls and the vision she had in mind and then added big, beautiful swans flying over the wallpaper.
Angelica, what’s your story? Tell us a bit about yourself.
My story is long! I live with my family a few miles south of Stockholm. I freelance as a photographer, influencer and content creator. I’m a sucker for good food and always have music playing in the background. I’m a mother of two wonderful kids, Lova 3 years and Rio 4 months. I’m engaged to my love Tom and dream about traveling all together, as soon as possible!
You have built a fantastic house, how was your thought process throughout the build?
I wanted to create a place I would never want to leave. It would portrait nature and I thought of it as a French vineyard meeting minimalism. I wanted that contrast for the sake of the warmth and the well though out details together with crazy angles.
Do you think it’s important to create a consistent theme throughout your home? Why?
In the beginning I thought so, but my goal or this year is to dare to go crazy. For example, by putting wallpaper in the ceiling, haha. However, I’ve lived in the house for a bit now and haven’t taken any hastic actions.
Where do you find your inspiration?
For the most part on Instagram. It’s a lovely platform.
How do you feel about following home decor trends?
Both yes and no. I tend to go with whatever suits my style and what make my soul feel good.
What do you think is important to think about when it comes to form and colour?
Just go for it! I’ve resonated that the foundation of the house should stay very basic so that I can go crazy with colours on other items. That’s the easiest way for me since I change my style every day, haha.
What materials/furniture is your heart beating a little extra for?
Oh, that’s a hard question. My heart beats a little extra for cool rugs!
If you could describe yourself with three words, what would they be?
Crazy, loving and a chatterbox.
“ I tend to go with whatever suits my style and what make my soul feel good.”
If you follow Angelica, it’s hard to not want to move into or build a house of your own that exudes French vineyard that meets minimalism, as she describes it herself. Her house is really something else! Angelica describes herself as a little crazy and chooses home décor according to what makes her feel good.
