Click here to untag 'Thats Not Litter, Thats Groundvertising'
A sort of new phenomenon regarding advertising; concert posters and general announcements plastered on sidewalks and other various ground levels. A really nice touch I must say, especially in a town like Stockholm where people tend to spend 8 months out of the year scurrying the city streets in gloomy weather obsessively staring at their feet.
Even Stockholm's public transport system have picked up on the trend. Here's advertising for a new metro card being introduced in the coming months.

stockholm'Rhyme Without Reason'
Strolling through Gamla Stan (
Old Town) in superb Spring weather. Being the home to the Royal Palace amongst other attractions, this part of Stockholm dating back to the 13th century, is probably one of the most popular tourist destinations in Sweden. Having a quick look at what's being offered at window display in probably 70% of the shops, presumably this is the kind of products and souvenering tourists want to buy and remember Stockholms´ most scenic area by:
Hordes of stuffed toymoose
Clogs
And ofcourse, vikings...

Simultaneously this is the kind of branding and aesthetics Sweden is trying to promote to the world as typically Swedish:
Hasselblad /
Koenigsegg /
Saab /
Absolut /
H&M /
Robyn /
Filippa K /
Cheap Monday...

mp3'Stockholm Archipelago'
Went sailing this weekend overstaying the night at this house on the picture above located in a national marine park on the utmost fringe of the Stockholm archipelago. No electricity, no running water but plenty rum went around. Living in the city sometimes make you forget how refreshing it is to see the open horizon every now and then. Walking narrow streets in some ways, at least for me, seem to narrow the senses aswell but out here nothing escapes. Open sourcing at its finest moment! More natural capitalism to the people thank you.
