Scandinavia is a place of extremes, from summer when the brilliant sun shines at midnight to winter nights illuminated only by the flaming northern lights. With such drama outdoors in every sea-son, it is no wonder that the home is a haven of comfort, decorated in colors from nature's palette and furnished with simple but handsome wooden pieces.
Bright walls and barely dressed windows welcome the precious sunlight into the home, setting the tone for an eclectic yet pared down look. Furnishings are a mix of new, streamlined pieces and more ornate heirlooms passed down from generation to generation. With a philosophy of "less is more," Scandinavians are able to create a feeling of harmony among pieces from periods throughout history. The minimalist style allows each one to show its true beauty without having to compete with the rest of the items in the room.
Filled with breathtaking photographs and expert text, Scandinavian Country captures the understated beauty of Nordic decor.
