Bespoke was founded by Anne-Christine Axelsson, a passionate interior and fashion designer since over 30 years back. 

She started her career after school where she followed her interest in interior and fashion design and studied the science of art and film at the Stockholm’s University.

After her studies and getting acknowledged into tailoring/textile and film production, she started working for the Swedish National Theatre. She worked in costume design, make-up and props for several musicals and opera productions; such as ‘The Phantom of the Opera’ in Sweden. Her Theatrical career continued, and she started at Cirkus Stockholm where she worked as a prompter for the musical ‘Chess’ and ‘Kristina from Duvemåla’.

 

In 1997, Cave Canem Bespoke was founded, a lifestyle boutique where people would find inspiration in interior, clothing, art and jewellery. That boutique was later on chosen and named in one of the Louis Vuitton’s city guides.

 

Today Cave Canem Bespoke AB provides and consults in interior and fashion design projects for TV set ups, commercials, Hotel rooms, Conference and Office spaces and as well private apartments. One of her past projects was for example being part in the interior and fashion design for former Absolut Ice Bar in Stockholm and London, and the international clothing brand GANT.

 

Anne-Christine builds her work on a Chinese philosophy called Feng Shui, which means wind and water. She strongly beliefs interior and fashion needs to be harmonized within its space and environment in order for one to achieve the balance in life.

Feng Shui

Bespoke believes in creating positive vibes through energy, forming a harmonious balance with spaces and objects that surrounds us. This is where Feng Shui comes in, every aspect of fashion and interior – color, space, shape, texture, fabric, design is energy meaning any objects within a space affects your life in various areas of involvement.

 

Feng means ‘wind’ and Shui means ‘water’, both are associated with good health, fortune and happiness in the ancient history of China. Good Feng Shui vibes means healthy, uplifting, loving and nourishing, you will feel supported and happy in your daily space as everything will flow easier surrounded with positive energy.

 

In order to achieve the above, one uses the main Feng Shui tool called Baqua which means ‘8 areas’. Each of the 8 Feng Shui bagua areas has a specific Feng Shui element, direction, Feng Shui color, as well as life area connected to it. The center area is associated with the Earth element and is part of all 8 bagua areas. In order to define the areas a compass reading is mostly used from the entrance of your office or home.
