Swedish artist and illustrator Siri Carlén’s graphics have appeared in children’s books, as window displays, pattern designs for clothing and art installations. She recently opened an exhibition on Swedish island Gotland, with a permanent outdoor installation of sculptures. We paid a visit to her family-run studio in Stockholm – a world full of colour and creativity.

In our second issue we visit the couple behind acclaimed interior architecture firm Halleroed at their forest hideaway, and we visit a 17th-century home and garden where time has stood still. Celebrated fashion designer Diana Orving creates a textile art installation in an empty museum exclusively for us, and we spend some time in the beautiful, sparse home of glass maestro Ingegerd Råman. “We are not easily tempted to buy things,” she says about her and her husband’s decision to live with the bare minimum of objects.
“I will defend the empty space.” Elsewhere in the issue, we discuss the profound effects of the built environment on our wellbeing. “I want to be part of a cultural movement that recalibrates what matters in society, and in life,” says Danish chef Fredrik Bille Brahe in Hugo Macdonald’s article on reconnecting with our roots. “I think courage to be local is important.” Born at a time of change, our hope is to inspire new ideas on the subject of living well. It’s time to welcome in a new era.

How will we eat, live and consume 2021? How will we travel, communicate – and feel? Will we move into a culture of longer-term thinking? After a year defined by challenges, mostly spent confined in our homes, we all long for a brighter time ahead. We asked a number of creatives about their views of the year to come.
