Tired of Tired Walls?

That’s how every journey to a new piece of art begins.

It’s about bringing something more to your space — a brighter morning, a warmer living room, a more memorable dinner, or a peaceful moment with a book.

Buying art shouldn’t feel overwhelming.
Where do you start? What looks good? Will it fit your space — your style — your life?

DISCOVER A UNIQUE HISTORICAL COLLECTION OF SCANDINAVIAN PAINTINGS

Tucked away on a quiet street of Malmö, Kjell Blomqvist’s small shop is more than an art space — it’s a living archive. With over 33 years as a collector, Kjell has gathered a treasure trove of unique historical artworks, most from across Scandinavia, and a few gems from much further afield.

He began painting as a child — “I don’t remember not painting,” he says with a stern face — but it was the stories behind other people’s work that really pulled him in. “There’s something humbling about finding a piece that’s been forgotten. It’s like shaking hands with someone from 150 years ago.”

Kjell doesn’t consider himself an expert. “Eye for art? There is no such thing,” he says. “you like what you like”

If you’re lucky enough to visit, he might show you the back of a canvas with a 19th-century note scribbled in pencil — or the smallest painting in the shop, a 5x5cm oil that once belonged to a sailor.
