It’s impossible to walk into the mid-century-perfect home that Swedish couple Cecilia Hammarborg and Konrad Lindholm share with their son Albert without covetously stroking the furniture. What’s even more sickening is that they have decorated their rented flat in Hackney Wick on a shoestring thrifty budget.
'The kitchen is ’50s. I bought it for £120, but I’ve seen them on Ebay for over £1,000 nowaday. It’s old and I could do with tightening everything up, but it’s working pretty well. When we move we’ll take it with us,' Konrad explains.
