Life at Villa Storängen
For half a decade Emma Ringström, the creative force behind FLEUR & KULÖR, has known the great villa in Storängen, room by room. Emma became the family’s interior designer from start. The Villa was built in 1914 by the architect Edvard Hubendick, who lived in the house himself. And one can tell this house has been called a home back then – and ever since with only five owners. Emma became the family’s interior designer from start. Natural materials were introduced alongside carefully chosen details. There is something about rooms that are allowed to hold both then and now. We are honored to see our textiles enhance the space, providing a soft touch while seamlessly blending the history of this house into the next decade.

The Art of Aperitivo with Lina Huring
Lina Huring is a designer and food creator who has been living in Milan, where aperitivo stopped being a drink and became a way of living. This is her ongoing love letter to that ritual, and here five best hacks for a joyful, stress-free moment before (or beyond) dinner — here’s what she has to say. The key to aperitivo is simplicity. It’s the cultural practice of letting go with elegance. Aperitivo is the ritual of opening (aprire in Italian) because the bitter drink opens the stomach for eating. I like to think of it as opening in the sense of “opening up” or entering an easier state of mind. We open our mouths not only to eat and drink, but to talk: to reconnect with our friends and family. What sets aperitivo apart from *just a drink* is what we eat. There’s no single correct version. Aperitivo is whatever you have on hand, and you adjust the effort to match your energy. Plain chips and olives are good enough. It’s never the star, always the transition. It comes as it is, and it doesn’t judge. The beauty of aperitivo is that it’s the beginning of something: an evening, an adventure, the rest of your life.
