Why Scandinavian Design?

Why do we specialise in the Scandinavian style?

We've always been drawn to the Scandinavian style and its philosophy of less is more, which stems back from our Scandinavian heritage.

The Scandinavian style centers on improving people's daily lives by creating a clean and functional space filled with lots of natural light and minimal clutter, allowing people to live peacefully without it being uninviting or cold.

We find that within this style lighting is key, furniture is functional and there is an abundance of high quality natural materials.

And all of this combined has a huge effect on people's mental health and how they interact within that space.

We love how natural and timeless the style is, and when this is created within a space with the addition of finely crafted pieces of furniture and accessories, it portrays a huge emphasis on function and beauty.

Now, some people may think that the style is too sterile and it actually can be if all the walls are painted white and there's no character added anywhere else in the room.

But we avoid this by focusing on a neutral colour palette as its foundation and building on this to fulfill our client's needs, both aesthetically and emotionally.

For example, adding texture to a space along with artwork with personality to help the room from feeling sterile.

As interior designers, we have a responsibility to integrate factors of wellness within our client's spaces to improve their ICE, inspiration, clarity, and efficiency.

For example, the Scandinavian culture is all about creating an atmosphere and an experience rather than focusing on specific things.

You may have heard of the Danish word hygge or the Swedish movement, Legum. These are elements of the Scandinavian lifestyle that we include in our Scandinavian designs for our clients.

It's no wonder that Denmark has been voted one of the happiest countries in the world, and a factor that contributes to this is because of its work life balance.

This is why we partner with work life balance coaches from around the world in order to create an inspiring lifestyle, both mentally and physically for our clients.
