Ängsvide
Ängsvide is a low growing rice-like shrub, the bark is beautifully gray-brown. Ängsvide grows on pine moors, in forest edges and meadow slopes. There are two subspecies of the plant that are sometimes considered two separate species, therefore we have let it inspire the design with a two-color front.
Han
The north of Sweden is in many ways progressive, but not so much when it comes to how the language evolves. Where others make efforts to use gender neutral pronouns, people in the north still refer to most things as him. ”Where is the car?” ”I put him in the garage.”

He
In Swedish, there are many different words used to cover all meaning of the English verb ”put”. In the North, there is one short word that fulfills the same inclusive function as ”put”: He.
High Coast
It was not until the seventies that the high-lying coastline between Härnösand and Örnsköldsvik began to be called the High Coast. Today, it is well deservedly one of Sweden’s fastest growing tourist destinations.
Int
Keeping things simple is of the essence for people in the north. As long as you make yourself understood, skipping out on a letter or two when speaking and/or writing is not a big issue. Inte means not, int means the same.
Kalix
Anyone who has ever swum in the Kalix River knows that it is refreshingly cold. Fewer may know that the name Kalix is of Sami origin and refers to the river's cool waters. And maybe, just maybe, it is precisely the cold water that makes the roe from the vendace that spawn here a gastronomic success worldwide.
Krycklan
For those who know their hydrology and aquatic ecology, Krycklan is home turf. All others can be well informed about this still watercourse in the Vindelälven river, which, along a part of the route, also has a nature reserve named after it.
Nausta
For a very small and quiet town just south of Jokkmokk, Nausta has made a loud impression in Swedish history. On 14 August 1961, just after ten in the evening, the first space rocket was launched from Swedish soil. But that blast was nothing compared to the Nausta blast, which was carried out in 1957 to test the results of an atomic bomb. Today, Nausta is quieter.
Seskarö
If the bridge from Haparanda to Seskarö was anywhere other than in Tornedalen, it would have been one of Sweden’s most photographed buildings. And for anyone who associates the archipelago the one outside Stockholm alone – in the archipelago outside Haparanda there is a whole, and everything but crowded, island world to discover.
Stensele
Outside Storuman is Stensele, a small village in large forests. In the mighty wooden church, one of the largest in the country, besides Queen Kristina’s Bible, there is also a copy of the world’s smallest Bible, small as a stamp.
Svetsa - EOE x CAKE
Welding – Svetsa in Swedish – is a fabrication process that joins materials by using high heat to melt the parts together and allowing them to cool, causing fusion. If you live in the north of Sweden and don’t know how to weld – it might be a good idea to consider moving somewhere else.
