In the summer of 2014, Daniel Heckscher began renovating what was essentially a white box, taking an inventive, playful approach, including some input from his six-year-old son, Otis, and four-year-old daughter, India. “This project was like a workshop where I could try out ideas and materials.” In a way, that open, improvisational quality reflects Heckscher’s path as a designer. He didn’t fall into the profession immediately. With a background in economics, there was a time he thought he’d “end up like a Wall Street guy, doing finance. But I stayed clear of that, which in the end, turned out to be a wise choice.” It wasn’t until he was close to 30 that he started studying interior and spatial design formally, first as an undergraduate in Milan before returning to Stockholm and earning his MFA at the prestigious Konstfack, University College of Arts, Crafts and Design. Not too long after that, he was creating interiors for clients at Note.
2014年夏天，丹尼尔·赫克彻(DanielHeckscher)开始翻新本质上是白色的盒子，采取了创造性的、有趣的方法，包括他六岁的儿子奥的斯和印度的四岁女儿的一些输入。以一种方式，“这个项目就像一个研讨会，我可以尝试一些想法和材料。”是开放的，即兴的质量反映了他作为设计师的道路。他并没有立即进入这个职业。在经济学的背景下，有一次他认为他“D“像华尔街的人一样，做财务。但我住得很清楚，最终结果是明智的选择。””直到他接近30岁，他才开始正式开始研究室内设计和空间设计，首先是米兰的一个本科生，然后回到斯德哥尔摩，在著名的康斯坦贝克学院获得MFA，艺术、工艺美术和设计学院。不久之后，他正在为客户创建内部的笔记。

I was thinking, how do I deal with this exterior color, because it’s going to be present the whole time in the living room and kitchen area.”
我在想，我该如何处理这种外部颜色，因为它将一直出现在客厅和厨房区域。“

With this space, Heckscher changed what he could while making other constraints work for him. The apartment is in a “quite ugly building from 1988,” he says. “It has this pinkish-orange façade that was very common at the time in Sweden… it’s not the height of Swedish architecture, 1988.
有了这个空间，赫克舍尔改变了他所能做的，同时使其他约束对他有效。他说，这套公寓“从1988年起就在一个相当丑陋的建筑里”。“它有一个粉红色的橙色立面，这在当时的瑞典非常普遍...它不是瑞典建筑的高度，1988年。

He decided to bring it into the design, using a similar shade for those rooms, along with a super-saturated, atmospheric blue he’d used in his previous home. That continuity was important to him. Heckscher moved here after a divorce, “so this was a fresh start,” he says. But along with the new, he wanted to incorporate some familiar elements to provide a sense of security for his kids.
他决定把它纳入设计，使用类似的阴影，这些房间，以及一种超饱和，大气蓝色，他曾在他的前一家使用。这种连续性对他很重要。赫克谢离婚后搬到这里，“所以这是一个新的开始，”他说。但随着新的，他想加入一些熟悉的元素，为他的孩子提供一种安全感。

While he tends to resist the more austere side of Swedish design, his sensibility seems distinctly Scandinavian in the way it manages to be comfortable and inviting but still cool and spare. It’s captured beautifully here by photographer Tekla Severin, who is also a Stockholm-based interior architect and the creator of one of our favorite Instagram feeds. When we reached Heckscher recently on the phone to learn more, he was as thoughtful, engaging, and unpretentious as his work would suggest.
虽然他倾向于抵制瑞典设计中更为简朴的一面，但他的情感似乎明显地表现在斯堪的纳维亚人的方式，它设法舒适和诱人，但仍然凉爽和备用。这张照片是由摄影师TeklaSeverin拍摄的，他也是斯德哥尔摩的室内建筑师，也是我们最喜欢的Instagram提要的创建者之一。当我们最近打电话给赫克谢想了解更多情况时，他就像他的作品所暗示的那样体贴、吸引人和谦逊。
