Scandinavian
furniture has been leading the way in the design world for decades. The reason being is often the Scandinavian
furniture and homewares are un- complicated. Scandinavians spend many hours at
home and look to fill the home with well-crafted furniture made from natural
materials. They often entertain family
and friends at home, as the winters are long and cold. Therefore the feeling in the home leads
towards good quality homewares and Scandinavian furniture, which will last for
years.
With
the use of natural materials and clean lines Scandinavian furniture knows how
to keep it simple and elegant. Natural
materials offer an easy on the eye approach the furniture, as you can see the
craftsmanship that has gone into working the material.
Natural
materials in Scandinavian furniture gives so much more joy to the owner
compared to man made products such as plastic, which appears harsh and mass-produced.With
Scandinavian furniture you feel the love and care of craftsmanship that has
gone into each piece.
Scandinavian
furniture does not date, due to the simplicity of design, the furniture fits
well in many interiors from contemporary, bohemian, coastal and minimalism. It would be naïve to assume Scandinavian
design is just one style – the furniture designs covers many interior styles
and with each, it givesa elegance and beauty.
Worldwide
brands, such as Gubi have become a power house representing Scandinavian
furniture along side other designers from around the globe. Their back catalogue covers French, German
designers from the modernist period of the 60s to contemporary designer
today. Many of the 60s designer such as
Greta Grossman where ahead of their time in designs, with the iconic pieces
such as the Grashoppa floor lamp and table lamp in many beautiful homes.
When
we look at Scandinavian furniture, we find key pieces, which will last for
years, due to the effortless style and craftsmanship. The furniture should be functional and give
beauty to the interior. The home is a place to relax from a busy and
complicated life, so the interior style works well with simple lines, therefore
allowing the eyes to relax, instead of being full of fussy designs, bright
patterns and colours.
Instead,
Scandinavian interiors use different materials to give the home interest. An
all white home does not have to be seen as boring – with the right balance of
texture, the home can be interesting and inviting. Use wooden scandinavian furniture, and
natural fiber, such as sheepskins, handmade ceramics, woolen rugs and throws to
give the home depth and interest.
