Synopsis

As the trend in residential design continues to move towards pared-down, comfortably elegant, environmentally friendly homes, the hallmarks of Scandinavian design - clean, elegant lines; delicate colour schemes; wellproportioned, airy spaces that maximize daylight; and a pronounced preference for natural materials - make it one of the predominant influences in interior design today. And yet, until now there hasn't been a book devoted to the signature features of Scandinavian design past and present. Over 350 colour photographs cover every aspect of the Scandinavian design aesthetic - from kitchen layouts to storage schemes, from wall treatments to living room furnishings, from front porches to gazebos. This book will be an essential addition to the shelves of everyone who has ever admired the subtle palette of a Gustavian room or enjoyed sitting in an Arne Jacobson chair.
