Pattern Stories

Sofia Wood Skye

With Pattern Stories, we want to embrace a specific wallpaper design and tell the story behind the pattern. We want to show the craftsmanship that leads to the finished wallpaper. We call it Swedish Wallpaper Art.

Sofia Wood Skye – A Tone of Aqua

At Sandberg we enjoy working with creative souls that represent an exciting style and this is exactly what Sofia Wood does. Sofia Wood is a Swedish influencer with a background in the fashion, art and design industry. She also has family roots in Australia, which resonate in the wallpaper she has been co-designing.

After a creative day together with Sofia in our design studio, we emerged with the wallpaper Sofia Wood.

What are your thoughts when you are choosing patterns and colors?

I wanted to make a wallpaper to live with for a long time, a wallpaper that becomes an obvious and loved part of a home.

"The color of the wallpaper is the most beautiful I know, a tone of aqua that changes between green and blue depending on how the light falls."

It is the same colour I have in my living room and the same colour as Skye, our beach house in Australia is painted in.

There is also another link to Australia, the hand-painted Lilly Pilly berries, native berries that grow wild in Australia and they remind me about the life there.
