There are two things you think of when you think of Sweden: Leggy blondes and Ikea. Both are great in certain situations—the latter when you want some clean-looking furniture on the cheap, and the former when you don’t already have a lady-friend waiting for you at home. While Ikea is the Scandinavian furniture staple in the U.S., there are other options you’ll see when you tour the streets of Stockholm.
Nordiska Galleriet is one of those contemporary furniture and design shops you’ll cross, and if you’re willing to spend a little more than you would at Ikea, you can snag a few sweeter pieces—colorful light fixtures, modern sofas, and clean workspaces—even if you won’t be able to stock up on meatballs in the process.
