Today’s summer house is located on one of the islands of the Stockholm archipelago. This beautiful cabin belongs to production designer, artist and interior decorator Carouschka Streijiffert.
In summer Carouschka trades her busy world for a quiet life in her cabin. She wasn’t impressed with the cabin when she first saw it, it was the island that she fell for.
Carouschka got permission to build on the island The result is a main building, a studio and three smaller houses for storage and guest space.
All buildings where designed, built and decorated by the artist herself with the help from carpenters from a neighbouring island.
I wouldn’t mind spending my summer in this beautiful little place!

What is up with the Swedes…they seem to get it so right so often. This place is fantastic on so many levels. It is designed but also somehow organic, it is urbane but also country, it allows you to feel part of nature but also seems to give you so much inside if you want to return to civilization.
A very nice find.

Just simply love this! Spacious with beautiful elements. Would love to hop on to the different cabins, making food here, have a drink outside, sleeping there, and working or playing over there…great!

What a sweet place; love that it’s so close to the water. Living on an island is a romantic notion, isn’t it?
