Color palette

The palette features a deep teal backdrop paired with rose motifs in muted clay and dusty terra tones. The foliage appears in a subdued pine grey, lending a calm naturalism. This balance between floral warmth and cool green restraint creates a moody, heritage-inspired atmosphere.

The surface resembles coarser handmade paper, with visible grain and irregular light absorption. Pigment sits unevenly in the texture, creating soft transitions at the motif’s edge—emulating how color behaves when stenciled by hand. This tactile effect enhances the historical and crafted impression.

Gustav, Jan & Astrid

With Gustav, Jan & Astrid, we revisit a distinctly Swedish design tradition—where gustavian ornament, folkloric elements, and stencil printing coexisted across both class and countryside. From manor house parlours to rural cabins, walls carried a visual language shaped by repetition, handcraft, and subtle variation.

We take our starting point in gustaviansk simplicity—the restrained Swedish neoclassicism of the late 18th century—but allow it to dissolve gently into folk memory. Think Madicken’s bedroom wallpaper, or something glimpsed in a hallway in Bullerbyn. Each pattern carries traces of nobility—and of how that nobility was interpreted by the common hand.

What binds the collection together is our use of stencil logic—but with a Linlava intervention: variation i varje våd. Each form is repeated, but never identical.

We treat the stencil not as an end, but as a starting point.

We ask: what if each ornament were applied again and again by hand, with shifts in angle, paint load, or even interpretation?

At Linlava, we’re not imitating tradition—we’re extending it. Through layered textures, imperfect repetition, and historically grounded forms, Gustav, Jan & Astrid becomes a study in how memory, hand, and ornament can shape a new kind of room.
