Patrik Giardino on Vacation in Sweden

It is always a good thing when one of your photographers loves to take pictures when they are away on vacation. These images were taken in the South of Sweden in and around Skanor and Patrik’s family lives in this general area called Malmo.

Patrik is Swedish and Italian – in case you were wondering with an Italian last name like Giardino. He grew up in both places so he has a connection to both of these special and beautiful countries.

If you can believe it in the summer as it so far North there is only three hours of darkness a night. Just like in Alaska and Northern Canada.

Some day I will make it to Sweden – I am so looking forward to the beauty and nature of course and seeing Stockholm too – one of the most important design capitals of the world.

In Sweden, design is highly regarded as a practice, an industry, and even a way of life. It is an important part of Swedish culture and as a result the country, especially its cities, has a lot to offer in the way of design. Proud of their heritage of good design, Sweden’s capital Stockholm, not surprisingly, boasts of excellent design museums that all have rich collections showing off Sweden’s design heyday during the 20th century.
