I saw this book on Olle Eksell at Rare Device last weekend, and I've been thinking about it for days. I like the way he uses color to define space; he seems like a good-humored person, someone I'd want to hang out with. Maybe it's because he did a lot of work for children's books, or maybe it's his use of ochres and pinks, or his scribbly handwriting, but there's something totally comforting about his illustrations. Something unmistakeably hyggelig. So I'm going back tomorrow to get the book. It'll be on my coffee table next time you come over.
