52 WINTER 2026 White and wood tones define every room in the unit, creating a serene, seamless cocoon. Even the art, which includes a painting by Danish artist Kirsten Schröder and a sculpture by Swedish artist Fanny Bylund, is keyed to this unifying palette. Not surprisingly, Ullvetter’s own designs — all handcrafted in Sweden — are everywhere in the home, from the simple bench at the foot of a bed to the armless easy chairs in the living room. The latter, which sport a shelf under the seat, came from her desire to fashion a multifunctional piece of furniture that provides storage for books. “I’ve named it Sogno, which means ‘dream’ in Italian, and that’s exactly what you do when you sit down with a good book,” suggests Ullvetter. “The design language of the chair is clear and stripped down, with a focus on the craftsmanship behind it and the seating comfort. It was important, too, that it is beautiful to look at even from behind so that it can be placed in the middle of a room where you move around it.” The rounded edge of the Side by Side Table sprang from her desire to soften the hard architectural geometry of the apartment, which includes sharply pitched ceilings pierced with windows. “I wanted to create a tactile and warm feeling through the irregular shape,” she shares. “Over time, the walnut acquires a beautiful patina as well.” 2 3 4 5 1 Side by Side Coffee Table in solid walnut. 2 The entryway, with a figurative piece Ullvetter made in high school and a bowl by Swedish artist Mimmi Blomqvist. 3 The Sogno Easy Chair with built-in bookshelf. 4 The well-appointed living room is set with Ullvetter’s own chairs and tables, along with a Marenco Sofa from Arflex. 5 A vintage Olavi Hänninen chair meets Ullvetter’s oak and walnut sideboard.
