Scandinavian Design
Scandinavian Design, most known for its focus on minimalist aesthetics, excellence in craftsmanship and timeless appeal, never fails to strike the perfect balance between functionality and natural beauty. The tradition has resulted in some of the most famous pieces, known the world over. Whether you are a design enthusiast, or a functionalist looking for a piece of practical furniture; the Scandinavian design tradition rarely fails in satisfying one's interior needs.
A movement within the border tradition of Scandinavian minimalism, Danish design further refined the movement's commitment to merging the functional and the aesthetic. Inspired by simplicity and harmony, every detail serves a purpose. The use of natural materials and traditional manufacturing techniques makes Danish design as true to its origins as it is to its focus on sustainability.

You can recognize the Scandinavian style by simple, functional furniture in which the use of wood predominates. Birch, ash, teak, oak and even rosewood is therefore typically Scandinavian.
