ROOM WITH A VIEW

In a skylift 35 meters up i the air above Stockholm I wasn´t really feeling very tough or secure!
But it was a beautiful evening and the view over Slussen and Södermalm was fantastic! Even more fantastic was the fact the
artist KG Nilson could stand and pose for more than 40! minutes in his fantastic studio high up on the top floor of Södermalmstorg 4.
These 170 square meters in the attic comprise what is probably one of Stockholms most famous dwellings. The Taube family has resided here once upon a time.
The view of the city from the spectacular window is just out of this world. The "peeping tom" view, from a skylift high above, took my breath away as I shot the scene for Dagens Industris Weekend Magazine.
And for those who want to "get the whole picture" get a copy of Weekend on Friday the 10th of february 2006 .
