In Stockholm: Nordic Minimalist Style

Image
I'm not yet done with Stockholm.   Last month when I visited Stockholm, I spent all three days walking around the city, taking a boat cruise only once to reach the far islands of the city and to see the city from afar to enjoy the Old Town at the fullest. One of those days I spent walking around the Stockholm's Sodermalm district, think of it as something close to New York City's SoHo + West Village. Before I went there, I've read in the guide that this district has flourished over the years with the design shops, fashion boutiques, art galleries, furniture stores, cafes, restaurants and what-not… I made it a mission to spend enough time exploring that area so that I could get the full vibe of the district, and I did. 

About Town...Stockholm: Sodermalm's Casual

  The SoFo, or Sodermalm district of Stockholm is like SoHo district of NYC: very young, very hip, very...diverse. The many cute, artistic cafes make it very easy to do some people shopping and street fashion photography shooting. This is exactly what I did at the String coffee shop...and check out Pelikan restaurant. Some more of Soderlmalm's hipsters... One of my favorite shops in Sodermalm is Tjallamalla .
